IMAGINE the corruption from the erstwhile Indonesian government for a Chinese person to get elected.
IMAGINE the corruption from the erstwhile Muslim government for a Christian to get elected.
Ahok got elected for a reason. We WILL eventually see it.
Maybe Flight QZ8501, from Indonesia, that went missing on Sunday in bad weather, was the LAST STRAW that "broke the camel's back" for Indonesia. Who knows?
I hope Ahok lives to be 110.
I hope he lives to, but political Islam outside of Indonesia isn’t going to let this pass. There is too much at stake, and they absolutely cannot afford a success. Doubtful he makes it out of 2015.
