Jokowi at a glance 

Joko Widodo who was born on 21 June 1961 is the seventh and current President of Indonesia. He is universally called in Indonesia as Jokowi, an acronym derived from his full name. He was previously the Governor of Jakarta and, prior to that, the Mayor of Surakarta.
He has a beloved wife Iriana Widodo who now automatically becomes the First Lady

and  3 wonderful Gibran Rakabuming, Kahiyang Ayu,  Kaesang Pangarep
He was nominated by his party, the Indonesian Democratic Party – Struggle (PDI-P), to run in the 2012 Jakarta gubernatorial election with Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (also known as Ahok) as his running mate. Jokowi was elected governor of Jakarta on 20 September 2012 after a second round runoff election in which he defeated the then incumbent governor Fauzi Bowo. Jokowi's win was widely seen as reflecting popular voter support for "new" or "clean" leaders rather than the "old" style of politics in Indonesia.
Jokowi's popularity rose sharply following his election to the high-profile position of governor of Jakarta in 2012. During 2013 and early 2014, he was increasingly seen as a potential PDI-P candidate for the Indonesian presidential election in 2014. His nomination was announced on 14 March 2014.
Jokowi was named as the President-elect of Indonesia on 22 July 2014 after being declared the winner of the presidential election winning more than 53% of the vote over his opponent Prabowo Subianto, who withdrew from the race before the count was completed disputing the outcome

Blusukan (Impromptu Visit)
Not so much a policy as a general approach, Jokowi has actively carried out the practice known as blusukan of regularly visiting quite poor areas across Jakarta. During these visits, he wears simple informal clothes and makes a point of spending time in markets or walking along narrow Jakarta lanes (gangs) to chat to people about problems like the price of food, housing difficulties, local flooding, and transport. Polling and media coverage suggests that Jokowi's hands-on style has proved very popular both in Jakarta and elsewhere across Indonesia

His awards and honors, accolades that have been conferred upon him  include the following:

2008: Jokowi was listed by Tempo as one of the 'Top 10 Indonesian Mayors of 2008'.

2011: He was awarded the Bintang Jasa Utama by President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.

2012: Jokowi received 3rd place of the 2012 World Mayor Prize for "transforming a crime-ridden city into a regional center for art and culture and an attractive city to tourists. He was listed as one of "The Leading Global Thinkers of 2013" in Foreign Policy.
 In February 2013 he was nominated as the global mayor of the month by the The City Mayors Foundation based in London.

2014: Jokowi was listed by Fortune as one of the 'The World's 50 Greatest Leaders

2014: Jokowi on the cover of Time on October 18, 2014.

Jakarta, 20 October 2014

Assalamu’alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh,

Salam Damai Sejahtera untuk kita semua,

Om Swastiastu,

Namo Buddhaya
  
We, Jokowi and JK (Jusuf Kalla), have just taken our oaths. That oath has a profoundly spiritual significance  that enforces our commitment to become a big nation. It is high time  we united our hearts and hands, and continue the heavy work load  to transform Indonesia into a sovereign country politically, self-sufficient economically, and with a strong character culturally.
I am truly confident that we can share this heavy task together with unity and through gotong royong (mutually helping one another hand in hand ) and hard work. Gotong royong serves a prerequisite to becoming a big nation. We will never become a big nation if we’re divided, we will never be truly free (“merdeka”) without hard work. 

My administration will ensure that every person in the motherland feels the presence of their government. I am quite sure  that the nation will be stronger if state institutions (do their work according to the people’s mandate, as written in the Constitution.
To the fishermen, laborers, farmers, bakso (meatball) vendors, street vendors, drivers, academics, teachers, military, police, entrepreneurs, and professionals, I urge you to work hard, gotong royong, because this is the historic moment for us all to move together, to work, work, and work.
We want to be present among other independent nations with dignity, with pride. We want to build our own civilization, we want to become a creative nation, a nation that contributes nobility to the world’s civilization.
We have to work hard to restore Indonesia as a maritime country. The oceans, the seas, the bays, and the straits are the future of our civilization.
We have far too long turned our back on the seas, the oceans, the straits, and the bays. It's time to restore everything so that the slogan of "jalesveva jayamahe” (in the sea we will triumph),  used by our forefathers, will echo again.
Building up on a country cannot be done alone by its president and vice president, and the administration that I lead, but we need a collective strength. These next 5 years will be a momentum to show our freedom as a nation. Therefore, work, work, and work is the priority. I remain certain with hard work and gotong royong we will be able to protect Indonesia as a whole, improve welfare, and contribute to the world order in accordance with the principles of freedom, eternal peace, and social justice.
In the name of the people and the government of Indonesia, I thank and appreciate the attendance of fellow state leaders and special delegates. As the third biggest country in the world with the biggest Muslim population in the world, as an archipelagic nation and the biggest nation in Southeast Asia, Indonesia will keep on practicing a free and active foreign diplomacy, for the national interest, and contribute in creating a world order in accordance with the principles of freedom, eternal peace, and social justice.
In this historic moment, I personally and on behalf of Vice President Jusuf Kalla and on behalf of Indonesia, thank President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and Professor Doctor Boediono who led the government over the past 5 years.
To conclude this speech, I implore you fellow countrymen, to remember one thing as said by the first president of the Republic of Indonesia, Bung Karno. That in order to build Indonesia into a big nation, prosperous and peaceful, we need the spirit of courage to face the waves.
As the captain of the ship as trusted by the people, I urge you all to get on the ship of the Republic of Indonesia and sail towards Indonesia Raya (Great Indonesia).
We will raise the mast, a strong one. We will face the tides in the ocean with our own power. And I will stand with the people and the Constitution. Merdeka !!!
May God bless our noble intention.
Wassalamualaikum warrahmatullahi wabarakatuh. 
God bless. Om shanti shanti om. 
Namo Buddhaya.

"Di Bawah Kehendak Rakyat dan Konstitusi"
Jakarta, 20 Oktober 2014


Assalamu’alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh,

Salam Damai Sejahtera untuk kita semua,

Om Swastiastu,

Namo Buddhaya



Yang saya hormati, para Pimpinan dan seluruh anggota MPR,

Yang saya hormati, Wakil Presiden Republik Indonesia,

Yang saya hormati, Bapak Prof Dr. BJ Habibie, Presiden Republik Indonesia ke 3, Ibu Megawati Soekarnoputri, Presiden Republik Indonesia ke-5, Bapak Try Sutrisno, Wakil Presiden Republik Indonesia ke-6, Bapak Hamzah Haz, Wakil Presiden Republik Indonesia ke-9, Yang saya hormati, Bapak Prof. Dr. Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono Presiden Republik Indonesia ke-6, Bapak Prof Dr Boediono, Wakil Presiden Republik Indonesia ke-11



Yang saya hormati, ibu Shinta Nuriyah Abdurrahman Wahid,

Yang saya hormati, rekan dan sahabat baik saya, Bapak Prabowo Subianto. Yang saya hormati Bapak Hatta Rajasa

Yang saya hormati, para pimpinan lembaga-lembaga tinggi negara,

Yang saya hormati dan saya muliakan, kepala negara dan pemerintahan serta utusan khusus dari negara-negara sahabat,

Para tamu, undangan yang saya hormati,

Saudara-saudara sebangsa, setanah air,

Hadirin yang saya muliakan,



Baru saja kami mengucapkan sumpah, sumpah itu memiliki makna spritual yang dalam, yang menegaskan komitmen untuk bekerja keras mencapai kehendak kita bersama sebagai bangsa yang besar.

Kini saatnya, kita menyatukan hati dan tangan. Kini saatnya, bersama-sama melanjutkan ujian sejarah berikutnya yang maha berat, yakni mencapai dan mewujudkan Indonesia yang berdaulat di bidang politik, berdikari di bidang ekonomi dan berkepribadian dalam kebudayaan.

Saya yakin tugas sejarah yang berat itu akan bisa kita pikul bersama dengan persatuan, gotong royong dan kerja keras. Persatuan dan gotong royong adalah syarat bagi kita untuk menjadi bangsa besar. Kita tidak akan pernah besar jika terjebak dalam keterbelahan dan keterpecahan. Dan, kita tidak pernah betul-betul merdeka tanpa kerja keras.

Pemerintahan yang saya pimpin akan bekerja untuk memastikan setiap rakyat di seluruh pelosok tanah air, merasakan kehadiran pelayanan pemerintahan. Saya juga mengajak seluruh lembaga Negara untuk bekerja dengan semangat yang sama dalam menjalankan tugas dan fungsinya masing-masing. Saya yakin, Negara ini akan semakin kuat dan berwibawa jika semua lembaga negara bekerja memanggul mandat yang telah diberikan oleh Konstitusi.

Kepada para nelayan, buruh, petani, pedagang bakso, pedagang asongan, sopir, akademisi, guru, TNI, POLRI, pengusaha dan kalangan profesional, saya menyerukan untuk bekerja keras, bahu membahu, bergotong rotong. Inilah, momen sejarah bagi kita semua untuk bergerak bersama untuk bekerja…bekerja… dan bekerja

Hadirin yang Mulia

Kita juga ingin hadir di antara bangsa-bangsa dengan kehormatan, dengan martabat, dengan harga diri. Kita ingin menjadi bangsa yang bisa menyusun peradabannya sendiri. Bangsa besar yang kreatif yang bisa ikut menyumbangkan keluhuran bagi peradaban global.

Kita harus bekerja dengan sekeras-kerasnya untuk mengembalikan Indonesia sebagai negara maritim. Samudra, laut, selat dan teluk adalah masa depan peradaban kita. Kita telah terlalu lama memunggungi laut, memunggungi samudra, memunggungi selat dan teluk.

Kini saatnya kita mengembalikan semuanya sehingga Jalesveva Jayamahe, di Laut justru kita jaya, sebagai semboyan nenek moyang kita di masa lalu, bisa kembali membahana.

Saudara-saudara sebangsa dan setanah air,

Kerja besar membangun bangsa tidak mungkin dilakukan sendiri oleh Presiden, Wakil Presiden ataupun jajaran Pemerintahan yang saya pimpin, tetapi membutuhkan topangan kekuatan kolektif yang merupakan kesatuan seluruh bangsa.

Lima tahun ke depan menjadi momentum pertaruhan kita sebagai bangsa merdeka. Oleh sebab itu, kerja, kerja, dan kerja adalah yang utama. Saya yakin, dengan kerja keras dan gotong royong, kita akan akan mampu melindungi segenap bangsa Indonesia dan seluruh tumpah darah Indonesia, meningkatkan kesejahteraan umum, mencerdaskan kehidupan bangsa, dan ikut melaksanakan ketertiban dunia yang berdasarkan kemerdekaan, perdamaian abadi, dan keadilan sosial.

Saudara-saudara sebangsa dan setanah air

Atas nama rakyat dan pemerintah Indonesia, saya mengucapkan terima kasih dan penghargaan yang sebesar-besarnya kepada Yang Mulia kepala negara dan pemerintahan serta utusan khusus dari negara-negara sahabat.

Saya ingin menegaskan, di bawah pemerintahan saya, Indonesia sebagai negara demokrasi terbesar ketiga dengan penduduk Muslim terbesar di dunia, sebagai negara kepulauan, dan sebagai negara terbesar di Asia Tenggara, akan terus menjalankan politik luar negeri bebas-aktif, yang diabdikan untuk kepentingan nasional, dan ikut serta dalam menciptakan ketertiban dunia berdasarkan kemerdekaan, perdamaian abadi dan keadilan sosial.

Pada kesempatan yang bersejarah ini, perkenankan saya, atas nama pribadi, atas nama Wakil Presiden Muhammad Jusuf Kalla dan atas nama bangsa Indonesia menyampaikan terima kasih dan penghargaan kepada Bapak Prof. Dr. Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono dan Bapak Prof. Dr. Boediono yang telah memimpin penyelenggaraan pemerintahan selama lima tahun terakhir.

Hadirian yang saya muliakan,

Mengakhiri pidato ini, saya mengajak saudara-saudara sebangsa dan setanah air untuk mengingat satu hal yang pernah disampaikan oleh Presiden Pertama Republik Indonesia, Bung Karno, bahwa untuk membangun Indonesia menjadi negara besar, negara kuat, negara makmur, negara damai, kita harus memiliki jiwa cakrawarti samudera; jiwa pelaut yang berani mengarungi gelombang dan hempasan ombak yang menggulung.

Sebagai nahkoda yang dipercaya oleh rakyat, saya mengajak semua warga bangsa untuk naik ke atas kapal Republik Indonesia dan berlayar bersama menuju Indonesia Raya. Kita akan kembangkan layar yang kuat. Kita akan hadapi semua badai dan gelombang samudera dengan kekuatan kita sendiri. Saya akan berdiri di bawah kehendak rakyat dan Konstitusi. Semoga Tuhan Yang Maha Esa senantiasa merestui upaya kita bersama.

Merdeka !!!
Wassalamu’alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
Semoga Tuhan memberkati,
Om Shanti Shanti Shanti Om,
