Please, not a movie star president after a song writer one who’s in office now.
Yusril as President?? Very, very unlikely.
1. His party is way too small and none of the larger parties would ever nominate him.
2. He is just not very popular. He wouldn’t stand a chance in a direct vote against SBY or Mega, or even Gus Dur or Wiranto for that matter.
He better try his luck in Hollywood. Or Bollywood. Just stay out of (Indonesian) politics.
Past movie stars who became President:
Reagan.
VS
Estrada.
The list is not exhaustive…
Think about it…
It is so tiring to listen to politicians who use Islam or religion as their agenda (and taking any opportunities to become celebrity).
How about Obama or Osama! Being President and Head of Constitutional.
Jimly Asshiddiqie agreed that the values and beliefs of the people, based in Islam, had to be a basis for the making of law.
Don’t know WTF is this Jeremy saying when Indonesian law has to be base on Islam. I think he should be sent to Tim Tim to Head the Council, religiously speaking.
The quality of the film somewhat looks like DKI. If he made his way for the Council or runs for presidency, I would surely say that Indonesia was like “Out of the frying pan and into the fire”. Don’t you think so yourself.
A person accused, but was not charge yet, for his part of being discriminative towards the minorities, the Chinese while in office as Justice Minister, and being part of launderingand transfering illegal money belonging to an ex-con while in office as Secretary of State.
Indonesia will be made to look like having clowns in a political arena.

Don’t we ALREADY have clowns in the Political Arena? Think Yuddyboy and Kalla.
Yeah guess you are right, but it may go to extra lengths when suddenly there will be more and more of them popping up.
With these people considering them highly educated and providing Indonesians with their kind of rubbish and comparing to the quality of politicians 20 years back where there is the no nonsense things, these people currently in office should know when tot take a look at their face in the mirror.
Yusril run for presidency ?!? Why Not …
Never forget a thing, Yusril almost be RI-1 in 1999 but he’s not take that chance and let’s Gus Dur for keeping Islamic unity in parliament with “poros tengah”, Yusril was sucess to play many political strategy include suppoting SBY in 2004 election.
Yusril is smart leader with long experience and his potency will needed by this country for significant change after this.
Go on Yusril for Presidency anf never loose that chance again.
i would like the film shown in the Philippin theaters, it is very classic and Mr. Mahendra has
done a great job in his role.
Mr. Mahendra is the peerfect president for Indonesia, he is not corrupt, he is very down to earth, he abides by the principles of humanitarian, a very intelligent person, a friend, a confidant and a true blooded leader.
we met n manila, philippines and got to know his personal side, i cant say any bad things about him. He is ready for presidency.
