- Abstract
The article reports on the implications of the Presidential victory of Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono in Indonesia. Reportedly, during the parliamentary elections in April 2009, only Yudhoyono's Democrat Party achieved the minimum qualification of 20 percent of the vote to nominate a presidential candidate by itself. He won in 28 out of 33 provinces in Indonesia while his losses include Bali, South Sulawesi and Central Kalimantan. Moreover, his administration signaled personal political strength as he chose the non-political but widely respected economist Boediono as his Vice President.
