Let's learn from India, Indonesia leaders

He is a President like no other. He is not from a pedigree family. In his childhood, his family had financial difficulties and they were evicted three times. He worked in primary school to pay for his school materials and for pocket money. When he was 12 years old, he started working in his father’s furniture workshop.

Before joining politics, he was a local furniture builder and exporter. He was first elected mayor of a medium sized city and then he was elected governor.  Joko Widodo (Jokoki) is now the President of Indonesia, having won 53.15 per cent of the 135 million votes. He challenged and decisively beat a former special forces general.
