Golput

Bukan hal yang biasa membuat aku untuk berpikir dan menulis, namun gawai demokrasi Pilkada (pemilihan kepada daerah) baik di kota Pontianak dan kabupaten-kabupaten lainnya serta di penjuru-penjuru negeri menyisakan ruang-ruang menarik untuk sekedar diobrolkan, dianalisis, didiskusikan, diketawakan (you named it). Termasuk di Madanika, ada ide yang muncul, bagaimana menciptakan golput terbesar di Pontianak setelah melihat calon-calon pemimpin yang "menyedihkan".

Hmm...it just put me on the side. I have this kind of though, if there no good candidate for the city, then when I decide to be golput, are that not just let the most popular or and the most crab candidates to win and run the city. So, here I'm, I choice to use my right, I will vote. Eventhough it mean select the best from the worse (ughh..), I will vote for an individual that I think will do a good job in running the city, in any kinds aspects like education, economy, environment, women's and children right, anything for the city. But the problem is, how I know what they campaign on is not just a good rhetoric public speaking. And what I or we can do to make sure the elected leader will keep he/her words...?
