Only at Indonesia...

Found some hilarious stuff posted on facebook recently in relation to Indonesia's coming election. Here are some posters:

These displays look more like movie posters than election billboards! Personally like the Gandalf (Lord of the Ring) personification in the upper middle part lol. Apparently anyone with white beard can pass off as the legendary wizard haha.

Next up,an array of hot-aspiring-to-be-politician ladies!

Left poster reads, 'who says pretty gal can't bring forth the aspiration of the masses?'

Centre poster is quite dumb really. Apparently the one campaigning for a seat is the father of a famous singer (I googled her name and found that out haha coz I don't recognize any indo artists), & he puts under his name 'Cynthia Lamusu's (the artist's) father'. Apparently when you've got a hot singer daughter, you stand a better chance of being appointed to the Senate, regardless of whatever you've done for your community. Not. Anyway, don't be surprised if this tactic works out for him. Coz it's Indonesia. and admit it, sex does sell everywhere.

People from all walks of life at Indo aspire to be politician. From tiger tamer, funky artist, security guard, salon owner, road sweeper, and also the unemployed. Oh well at least there's someone who thought out of the box. He left his billboard in the middle of a lake, where no one would fight with him for attention. Really smart move. At least he has got my vote already.

oh btw the bottom right corner poster reads, 'if you want to find job, vote for me! If you don't, I'll be the one out of job... hahaha (this part is really in the poster!)' Definitely aiming high in terms of his job search! The poster at the lower part (2nd from left) reads 'True leaders serve the people they represent'. Gotta give it to him for his 'service' to his community!

Now you ask, with so many candidates to choose from (all with their creative pitches), wouldn't the people be confused? If you ask me, there's ONE & ONLY winner which has captured my vote:

Poster says 'Don't choose me because I'm:

- Not a candidate

- like to rip-off the society

- never does anything for the community

- gives empty promises

- corruption is my hobby

- respect all the corruptors'

This guy has got to be the most honest wannabe politician there was, is and ever will be at Indonesia! These are what all indo politicians are thinking in their mind, but no one ever has the guts to admit it. Kudos for his honesty, & he's certainly gonna win a landslide victory in his state election!

Somebody has gotta hire his campaign manager coz that dude must be a genius!
