A year has been passsed by Indonesia under Jokowi-JK’s administration but is  there any positive impacts that has been perceived by the public? Until now there are many people who complained abou the increasing of public welfare. More and more people are suffering. The problems that facing Indonesia are increasingly more complicated and incomplete, ranging from a slowing economy, the implementation of the law until the commotion land and forest fires then smog that hit Indonesia.

So is it true that there is a question of the one year in Jokowi-JK’s lead is only worsen the situation of Indonesia? Many people confirmed that the Jokowi’s election just made people become miserable. Jokowi unabled to fulfill his campaign promises in advance. In fact, the development plans which was launched by Jokowi considered as unrealistic and irrational. While being a leader is not an easy matter. Not all of people can follow his will. Jokowi as the leader of Indonesia at least needs to have dreams and high ambitions for the welfare of the Indonesian people. Starting from Trisakti and Nawa Cita that was embedded in goverment, until the expressway development programs, infrastructures and the strengthening of the Indonesian economy.

Many of Jokowi’s government policies become controversial in the eye of public, even considered as a way of increasing popularity. The policies include the drowning of foreign vessels, the death penalty for drug convicts, the declining in fuel prices and some other policies. However, the policies are quite effective in addressing the problems in this country. In the first year, Jokowi-JK government had established a clear policy as a reference in solving the problems of this country.

On the other hand, the seriousness of the Jokowi’s Government for building the country can be seen from the side of the Indonesian economy. Global economic pressureis threatening includes negative sentiments, Fed interest rate, currency wars carried out by some exporting countries and a weakening Chinese economy has some impacts on several countries including Indonesia. But out of many countries whose economy is reeling, Indonesia remained stable.

As an intelligent people, Indonesians should be able to understand the problems that has been faced by Indonesia. The reflection of one year  is not only used as a form of revenge against the government on the issues raised in Indonesia. The reflection upon the one year government by Jokowi should serve as a performance evaluation towards Jokowi government to give critics with constructive solutions, not just a protest or demonstration that denounced, but does not provide a solution or even abstain from acts of positive action to helpbuilding Indonesia.
