    Presidential Election 2014: Voices and Choices of Indonesian Citizens in Malaysia
  • 0:14 - 0:16
    You're back with Al Mundir
  • 0:17 - 0:21
    Special reporter for 2014 Presidential Elections from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
  • 0:22 - 0:24
    We know that since early 2014
  • 0:28 - 0:33
    many leaders in Indonesian society declared themselves eager to compete in the presidential elections
  • 0:33 - 0:43
    Voices and choices from Indonesian citizens in Malaysia will also decide who the next president will be
  • 0:43 - 0:49
    Let's hear comments, voices, and choices from Indonesian citizen in Malaysia
  • 0:51 - 1:00
    All of them running in this election, it's hard (to choose), they all want to push for the nation's progress
  • 1:01 - 1:12
    Mr. Jokowi is humble and blends in easily with people
  • 1:12 - 1:21
    For Mr.Prabowo, I like him because he's firm in all matters and also humble
  • 1:24 - 1:29
    And he's also charismatic
  • 1:30 - 1:34
    I choose Jokowi, because he is defending the truth and he is humble
  • 1:35 - 1:40
    And Jokowi defends us, migrant workers who work in Malaysia
  • 1:42 - 1:44
    Jowoki yes, he's the best
  • 1:45 - 1:52
    Because Jokowi, he doesn't put his own interests before of the people
  • 1:52 - 1:54
    He put the interests of the people first
  • 1:54 - 2:01
    He is capable in development, he doesn't defend the rich or the poor, I choose Jokowi
  • 2:01 - 2:13
    Jokowi, he's good and not like the other who only cares about his own economic interests
  • 2:13 - 2:14
    I hope he (Jokowi) becomes the best in Indonesia
  • 2:15 - 2:22
    I choose Mr. Prabowo because he was an ex-leader of the Indonesia Special Forces (Kopassus)
  • 2:22 - 2:25
    He's very firm, charismatic
  • 2:25 - 2:34
    Mr. Jokowi, he is new in politics, but Mr.Prabowo, he has been in the army for quite some time
  • 2:34 - 2:39
    At least he (Prabowo) knows how to manage the State if we compare him to Mr.Jokowi
  • 2:41 - 2:42
    So who will you vote for?
  • 2:42 - 2:44
    I will vote for Prabowo
  • 2:45 - 2:52
    We have to vote because we are from Indonesia, we need to vote and have a leader in Indonesia
  • 2:53 - 2:58
    Whoever becomes the president, Mr. Jokowi or Mr. Prabowo, the main thing is that
  • 2:58 - 3:05
    he can lead this nation to become stronger and more advanced
  • 3:05 - 3:10
    Become a good leader who can hear the misery of his people
  • 3:10 - 3:13
    If he doesn't know, how would he lead?
  • 3:13 - 3:19
    He must know, so he doesn't only care for glory and show no care for the people below
  • 3:19 - 3:23
    (Someone who) creates more advantages for his people
  • 3:23 - 3:29
    So the people at the top, they need us now because they care about our votes, right?
  • 3:29 - 3:36
    As soon as he gets elected, it's done. Once he's president, he won't care about the people anymore.
  • 3:36 - 3:44
    What we need is a leader that can lead, so that our economy becomes much better and we don't have to migrate to find work
  • 3:44 - 3:48
    We are not enjoying working here
  • 3:48 - 3:53
    If we can work in our own country, that would be more ideal
  • 3:53 - 4:00
    The government only cares about Visas and procedures but they don't know what happens to migrant workers
  • 4:00 - 4:07
    Why do we have to put energy into choosing this or that candidate?
  • 4:07 - 4:11
    If our president could realize our problems, I would be very happy
  • 4:11 - 4:22
    But as you heard from the people, once they get elected, it's over. They will forget about us.
  • 4:22 - 4:33
    If he know the problems of his people, and wants to help, he should make his people happier, making it easier to find jobs
  • 4:35 - 4:41
    We just heard comments and views on our presidential candidates for 2014
  • 4:42 - 4:46
    The Indonesian citizens who are living in Malaysia have also stated their choices
  • 4:46 - 4:53
    Let's hope that whoever gets elected will make Indonesia a much better nation
  • 4:53 - 4:58
    I will keep you updated on key moments on this election from Malaysia
  • 4:58 - 5:01
