Detik-detik prabowo menyetujui usulan bahlil kalo pemilihan langsung kepala daerah oleh rakyat sebaiknya ditiadakan Padahal pemilihan langsung adalah amanat reformasi '98 Sebenernya yg bikin pilkada berbiaya mahal itu ya para politikus itu juga

Their lawmakers are clearly well-educated in their field. This is why we should vote for people who actually studied law and know how the government works, instead of just choosing 'popular individuals.'

Makanya itu gaes jangan ignorant. Jangan berpikir bahwa politik itu ga ngaruh apapun ke hidup kalian semua. Liat apa yg terjadi di Soukor. Hidup seluruh warganya terancam hanya dalam kurun waktu 2 jam 48 menit. See what those people in power can do if you elect the wrong person…

It appears that the election participation rate in Jakarta was just 53% of eligible voters. In other words, this is the lowest voter turnout ever since Jakartans started directly voting for their governor in 2007. Nearly half of Jakarta voters couldn’t care enough to vote.

Donald Trump didn’t just beat Kamala Harris. He beat the system that tried to put him in jail. Now he's become the first convicted felon ever to win a presidential election — and that means he'll almost certainly never face legal accountability 👉 politi.co/3Ax4kSK

President Prabowo plans to develop Buleleng in North Bali into a new Singapore or Hong Kong. Are we going to see a new skyscraper central or will development follow current restrictions? The airport is arguably much needed to reduce reliance on Ngurah Rai. Whats your take?

Banyak yang pengen bantu donasi lewat mutual aid tapi sering terhambat, entah karena bingung mulai dari mana, atau ngerasa kita ga bisa bantu banyak. Aku gitu soalnya, tapi lagi pengen ngelatih diri buat ngebiasain donasi sebisanya. Let’s train our muscles for solidarity, maybe?…

I'm a bit disoriented by what's currently happening in Jakarta. I feel like our source of joy is too driven by excessive consumerism in the form of large-scale events like concerts, bazaars, pop-up exhibitions, etc., which is very unsustainable.
