Indonesia is currently led by a self-govern oligarchy. An oligarchy which has the very complex nature of hierarchy, that few people know how command is drawn by the ruler. 

The ruler himself, or actually herself, stands under the shadow of Indonesian fore-father. A family name that constitutes wealth and power would surely at no time could change the course of this nation. 

One name which is really powerful. One name, from any other fore-father names, reigns so long and strong, that its color symbolize power and zest. Red is the symbol of brute power and zestful indignation. Not to mention anger and strong loyalty will surely rise once your mind preoccupied by the color. 

Jokowi gains its name through his struggle as one 'valuable' member of PDI-P, has caught the highlight. As twice had been elected as Major of Solo by 92% of Solonese, Jokowi has put its greater path toward good political career. 

In 2012, his effort in running for Governor of DKI Jakarta along with his (ex) vice Governor, Basuki Tjahya Purnama or Ahok, had also won by winning the second electoral vote. 

Two years running the DKI Jakarta Governor position, Jokowi had his 'summon'. He ran for Presidency in 2014 for the first time. Though many objection and criticism burdened Jokowi's choice. 

Many also supported him to the fullest. Particularly, support came from PDI-P and in particular, a blessing from Megawati. Through struggle and hardship during the campaign, Jokowi finally won 53% of Indonesia majority vote. 

And, in his 100th days ruling, Jokowi had faced many problems. And the one giving him the burden is the conflict between KPK-Polri. As allegedly, Kapolri or head of Indonesia Police Force, Budi Gunawan (BG) is accused for his suspicious flow of money to his bank account. 

As though it is Megawati's way of saying she's still the ruling ruler, she has led Jokowi strayed by her decision. Her recommendation for Kapolri, BG, triggered as presumably the quick reaction of KPK. Or you might say a emergency action, KPK made BG as a suspect of corruption. 

Though the corruption investigation of BG has been rolling out since . The motive of subjugating BG as suspect had risen the oligarch's dislike. The oligarchy, led by Megawati using PDI-P as medium, still presume its power above Jokowi as President. 

Many wild conspiratorial assumption behind Megawati's persistent decision for BG. Jokowi as many said, is like a ventriloquist doll. The doll will say what the ventriloquist said subtly. Jokowi should be submissive toward Megawati's 'command' to him.
