Indonesia: The Christian Governor Whom Islamists Want to Take Down
In Jakarta, the Christian governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama, known as Ahok, faces legal challenges from radical Muslim groups for questioning a Quranic verse's interpretation. Despite his popularity and successful governance, Ahok's re-election campaign is marred by a blasphemy accusation, which has led to massive protests orchestrated by the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI). The political landscape is further complicated by Ahok's Chinese heritage and Indonesia's historical and current relations with China. The election results, with Ahok leading in the first round, challenge the notion of a strong confessional reflex in voting behavior, but the potential for violent extremist reactions remains a concern.
