Wahlsieg für Joko Widodo

May 21, 2019 - Der amtierende Präsident Joko Widodo wird nach der Wahl im April wieder Präsident von Indonesien. Der frühere General Prabowo Subianto musste seine Niederlage eingestehen, obwohl er den Vorwurf von Wahlmanipulation äußerte aber keinen Nachweis vorlegen konnte.

The Election Commission said Widodo won 55.5% of the vote in the April 17 election to 45.5% for his challenger, ultra-nationalist former general Prabowo Subianto.

Subianto, who also lost to Widodo in 2014, has alleged massive election fraud in the world's third-largest democracy but hasn't provided any credible evidence.

Indonesia, the world's most populous Muslim-majority nation, is an outpost of democracy in a Southeast Asian neighbourhood of authoritarian governments and is forecast to be among the world's biggest economies by 2030.

A second term for Widodo, the first Indonesian president from outside the Jakarta elite, could further cement the country's two decades of democratisation.
