[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="434" caption="(illustration: telegraph.co.uk)"][/caption] Godot, a character described as a vain hope and expectation. A character long created in Thomas Beckett play 'Waiting for Godot'. It tells about the story of two persons waiting in vain for someone named Godot. An absurdity within the mind of Vladimir and Estragon, they found nothing but emptiness. And this Godot will not come to save them and their prosperous expectation. An expectation to be fulfilled in the name itself said as God-ot. But absurdly, it resembles vanity and uncertainty. An expectation which we Indonesia are long for as well. The hope of prosperous and independent nation is the utmost expectation of many Indonesian. And during its development, prosperity and nation independence seem futile. Leaders in this nation had brought nothing but perseverance of a wishful thinking. People are brought merely to the gate of prosperity and independency. Throughout Indonesian half century independence, these two most important entities belong to the wealth and aristocrat ruling this nation. Majority are fooled and utterly distracted by the marginal wealth they feed. People need someone to truly brings Indonesia to become prosperous and independent. Jokowi or Joko Widodo, has shed light toward the true expectation of many Indonesian. His dedication and true contribution during his role as Solo major had really great impact for people. Then, his two years dedication as the governor of Jakarta, has put Jakarta in highlight. His breakthrough to reform Jakarta has put many insolent officials restless. Henceforth, many also of insolent officials were put into trial of their disgraceful act of corruption. He had moved away many Indonesian doubt of good and true leader. He had made his work and dedication the utmost hope toward the vanity of prosperous and well-governed nation. As now Jokowi is running for President, the hope and expectation of many Indonesia culminate. Many see changes and goodness to come if Jokowi become the president. Many expect Indonesia to become prosperous in its literal definition. Many put their hope toward a better Indonesia in the future. To become a strong and independent archipelago nation. This presumption is merely based on Jokowi's contribution and actual dedication during his role as Solo mayor and Jakarta governor. And these has now become the beacon of hope for many Indonesian. Like a knight in shinning armor, Jokowi has came to lead Indonesia. He came and supported to lead this nation to its destined nation, as in axiom Gemah Ripah Loh Jinawi. He is elected not by the ruling class of this nation. He came from the desperation of the poor and much anticipation of middle class. He is the killer and terminator of Godot of this nation. He wants to revolutionize Indonesia through his experience in leadership, which is no doubt reliable. He is also seen as the Satrio Piningit, or the knight of savior. A person salvages this nation. On July 9 2014, the hope and anticipation will accumulate. All the ballot for Jokowi will be the stepping stones for him to seek the presidency. Our concern and vote are the media Jokowi will come to the position Indonesia has awaited, to become the President for the next 5 years. Regards, Solo May 2 2014 10:40 pm
