For me, the very confusing thing about politic is the election, a.k.a. pemilu.

My teacher told me that in a meeting/conference/discussion (in Indonesian it’s musyawarah) , we only do voting and the election if there is no other option that solves the problem. When you play football, do you take the penalty first, and then the kick off? You don’t know how is his/her “characteristic and posture” exactly, because you only watch and see their face in the mass media.

Besides that, the election also gives some negative effects. You need much money to be the elected one. It is okay when you have enough money, but if you don’t, you may be the next “The most wanted corruptor”.      

I don’t know why in Indonesia (and other countries) we do election as the main choice. I don’t want to persuade you to against the government, I just 19 years old boy that want to breathe a word. I just try to be rationalism.
