Public recognition of a leader’s vision if he is elected in a national-scale election such as the 2024 presidential election is very important. People don’t want to be fooled a second time by ‘buying a cat in a sack’ or if the candidate for leadership only relies on personal imagery which ultimately ends in deception and deep disappointment.
Vision is something that is promised to be realized when a leader is elected. Not only does the vision become a ‘benchmark’ of how far its future performance will be, but also so that people’s expectations can be measured. If he fails, it is natural for the people to be disappointed and even to overthrow him through democratic means. Momentum for Anies Baswedan to work in a larger space as a leader, it seems that the chances are getting wider. No longer at the regional level, but leadership at the national level.
JAKARTA | KBA – Anies’ next step in his political career is expected. His presence has even been awaited by not only the residents of Jakarta Metropolitan, but also people in various parts of the country.

Regarding national leadership, problems and ideas to organize Indonesia, Anton Charliyan, in the book ‘Master Leadership, Revealing the 99 Secrets of Local Wisdom of the Archipelago on Leadership’ (2015), reveals the importance of the special qualities of a president in leading a country.
He wrote that in the context of the nation and state, most of our national problems are closely related to the leadership factor as a leader who is attached to all traits, words and actions that can be the key to success or the cause of failure.
“An Indonesian President, for example, even though the minimum requirements for a presidential candidate have been stipulated constitutionally, in practice will only pass candidates to the gate. Behind that, he leads a country with a myriad of very complex problems and demands a number of special qualities that cannot be captured by law,” he wrote, quoted by KBA News, Saturday, January 22, 2022.
The retired two-star police officer, who had attended Lemhannas education, revealed a number of special qualities, including being reliable in handling policies, quick in making decisions, good judgment, high intellectuality, innovativeness, risk-taking, adaptive, sharp instincts,concern for problems, mentally tough, willing to introspect and learn from mistakes, able to set priorities, persistent in finding solutions, able to read changing times and world trends, ability to adapt, good morals, and so on.
