JAKARTA - Indonesian President Joko Widodo promised on Tuesday that he would be a leader for all of his country’s people after official results from an April 17 election confirmed he had won a second five-year term in office. “After being inaugurated in October, we will lead and protect 100% of the Indonesian people,” Widodo told reporters in Jakarta, referring to his running mate Ma’ruf Amin.
The General Election Commission’s official vote count showed Widodo had won 55.5% of the votes in the presidential election compared with 44.5% for his rival, Prabowo Subianto, who has refused to concede defeat.
