Joko 'Jokowi' Widodo
Joko 'Jokowi' Widodo is an Indonesian politician and businessman who has served as the President of Indonesia since 2014. Known for his down-to-earth approach and focus on infrastructure development, Jokowi previously served as the Governor of Jakarta and the Mayor of Surakarta. His presidency has been marked by significant economic growth, social reforms, and efforts to combat corruption, although he has faced criticism for his handling of human rights issues. His leadership style, characterized by direct engagement with the public, has earned him widespread popularity, but his recent endorsement of former general Prabowo Subianto in the 2024 elections has sparked concerns about a potential return to authoritarianism.
