    Presidential Election 2014: Voices and Choices of Indonesian Citizens in Malaysia
  • 0:13 - 0:15
    You're back with Al Mundir
  • 0:15 - 0:21
    Special reporter for the 2014 Presidential Elections from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
  • 0:21 - 0:25
    We know that since early 2014
  • 0:25 - 0:32
    many leaders in Indonesian society declared themselves eager to compete in the presidential elections
  • 0:33 - 0:42
    Voices and choices from Indonesian citizens in Malaysia will also decide who the next president will be
  • 0:42 - 0:49
    Let's hear comments, voices, and choices from Indonesian citizens in Malaysia
  • 0:50 - 0:59
    Those running in this election, it's hard (to choose), they all want to push for the nation's progress
  • 1:00 - 1:11
    Mr. Jokowi is humble and blends in easily with people
  • 1:11 - 1:20
    As 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
  • 1:34 - 1:40
    And Jokowi defends us, migrant workers who work in Malaysia
  • 1:42 - 1:44
    Jowoki! Yes, he's the best
  • 1:44 - 1:49
    Because Jokowi, he doesn't put his own interests before of the people
  • 1:50 - 1:52
    He put the interests of the people first
  • 1:52 - 1:59
    He is capable in development, he doesn't defend the rich or the poor, I'll surely choose Jokowi
  • 2:01 - 2:09
    Jokowi, he's good and not like the other who only cares about his own economic interests
  • 2:09 - 2:13
    I hope he (Jokowi) becomes the best in Indonesia
  • 2:14 - 2:21
    I choose Mr. Prabowo because he was an ex-leader of the Indonesian Special Forces (Kopassus)
  • 2:21 - 2:24
    He's very firm, charismatic
  • 2:24 - 2:33
    Mr. Jokowi, he is new in politics, but Mr.Prabowo, he has been in the army for quite some time
  • 2:34 - 2:40
    At least he (Prabowo) knows how to manage the State if we compare him to Mr.Jokowi
  • 2:40 - 2:42
    So who will you vote for?
  • 2:42 - 2:44
    I will vote for Mr. Prabowo
  • 2:44 - 2:52
    We have to vote because we are from Indonesia, we need to vote and have a leader in Indonesia
  • 2:52 - 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 feel the misery of his people
  • 3:10 - 3:12
    If he doesn't know, how would he lead?
  • 3:12 - 3:19
    He must know, so he doesn't only care for glory and show no care for the people below
  • 3:19 - 3:22
    (Someone who) creates more advantages for his people
  • 3:22 - 3:28
    So the people at the top, they need us now because they care about our votes, right?
  • 3:28 - 3:35
    As soon as he gets elected, it's done. Once he's president, he won't care about the people anymore.
  • 3:35 - 3:43
    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 - 3:47
    We are not enjoying working here
  • 3:48 - 3:51
    If we can work in our own country, that would be more ideal
  • 3:51 - 4:01
    The government only cares about Visas and procedures but they don't know what happens to migrant workers
  • 4:02 - 4:06
    Why do we have to put so much energy into choosing this or that candidate?
  • 4:07 - 4:10
    If our president could understand our problems, I would be very happy
  • 4:10 - 4:21
    But as you heard from people, once they get elected, it's over. They will forget about us.
  • 4:21 - 4:31
    If he knows the problems of his people, and wants to help, he should make his people happier, make it easier to find jobs
  • 4:35 - 4:42
    We just heard comments, voices, and choices on the presidential candidates for 2014
  • 4:42 - 4:45
    The Indonesian citizens who are living in Malaysia have also stated their choices
  • 4:46 - 4:52
    Let's hope that whoever gets elected will make Indonesia a much better nation
  • 4:52 - 4:57
    I will keep you updated on key moments on this election from Malaysia
  • 4:57 - 5:01
    This is Al Mundir, reporting from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
