1- Soekarno
Since childhood, Kusno Sostro Diharjo a child who was born in Surabaya East Java often get sick. Finally Kusno's name was changed to Soekarno. This name was taken from a warlord named karna in the story barata yuda. Not only the name change in childhood, when sworn in as president, Sukarno changed the old spelling of his name because according to him his name was the spelling of the Dutch word. But the name on the signature is not changed, because it is the same signature when signing the original proclamation text.

About the name, Soekarno is also popular abroad suddenly got additional name Ahmad Soekarno. And finally became one of the street names in Egypt. The first president of the Indonesian republic is famous for his loud and bold speech. It made Sukarno not only the people but also hated by some groups. He had experienced several attempted murder. One of the horrendous is when attending a bazaar event at a school in cikini on 30 november 1957. Soekarno bombarded with grenades from various corners, fortunately the guards of the president swiftly escorted him to a safe place.

Characteristic of Soekarno appearance when he served as president of Indonesia is the military armor and stick of command which he always carry anywhere. Apparently there are 3 kinds of commando stick that he brought at a certain moment. The first wand was taken during a visit abroad, the second wand was used when dealing with the generals, while the third stick was used every time he made a speech.

If in a hurry, Sukarno always carry a common command rod used to make speeches. A lot of speculation about this stick, some thought it was the secret of Sukarno's supernatural powers that always escaped the attempted murder. But in his biography book written by cindy adam. Soekarno admitted the stick is just a complementary view only.

2- Soeharto

The Smilling General, this nickname was given world leader to Soeharto who ruled in Indonesia for 32 years. The President of both republics of Indonesia is always smiling when dealing with the public, both outside and inside the country. One of the journalists who always followed him claiming Suharto remained smiling when the German community blaspheme him. This incident took place a Soeharto and his cabinet entourage visited Germany in 1995.

Not only smiling, Soeharto also waved to the demonstrators. As if they were waiting for him. Despite many negative comments from the former president of this one, but soeharto still managed to carve a great achievement for Indonesia.

During his reign, Indonesia managed to get out of dependence on rice imports. Indonesia, which had become the largest rice importer in the world, became a rice-conserved country. He even managed to collect the aid of one million tons of dry rice from farmers to be given to the starving African people.

In addition, Soeharto also received the highest honors from the United Nations in the field of population for successfully executing the family planning program to hold the rate of population density in Indonesia.

3 - BJ Habibi
Baharudin Jusuf Habibi was the third president of the Indonesian republic to replace Soeharto. Unlike his predecessor, Habibi is the shortest president of his term. One year and 5 months only. The monetary crisis and political upheaval in 1998 to 1999 caused a split across the archipelago. To curb the chaos, Habibi passed a law on regional autonomy that provides an opportunity for regional areas outside Jakarta to flourish.

During his reign, Habibi often lost patience and tended to act quickly. The ministers at that time felt a democratic spirit if Habibi led a cabinet meeting. The hotter the ministerial debate, the more Habibi the spirit of leading the meeting.

Being president in the transition era from the new order to the era of democracy is very heavy. Habibi responsibility as president was rejected by the MPR session, one of them because timor timor escape from the territory of Indonesia. aware of the shortcomings, habibi graciously accepted and decided not to run again as president. After that Habibi out of politics, and prefer to work in the field of science of technology.

The intelligence of the Indonesian president is indeed above average, he has 46 patents in the world of aviation technology. Nothing matches that achievement yet. Doctor from Germany also managed to make a plane for NASA, the American Organization associated with outer space. for Indonesia alone he designed the N250 aircraft is done 100 percent Indonesian engineers. if there is no monetary crisis, this plane is predicted to dominate the turbo proxy category flight world.

4 - KH. Abdurrahman Wahid
After the Habibi's presidency is over, the president's seat falls on the hajj kyai Abdurrahman Wahid, or who is more familiarly called gus dur. The famous and unpredictable democrat Kyai won the MPR vote and defeated Megawati Soekarno Putri. During his reign Gus dur very controversial. one of the decisions that shocked all parties was the imposition of the Lunar New Year as a national holiday. The deceased revoked the ban on Chinese letters that had been restricted by the New Order regime.

Gus Dur as a familiar nickname Abdurrahman Wahid argues the history of Indonesian society is also influenced by the Chinese. Even he claimed to have Chinese blood, from his father's lineage. Before becoming president, Gus Dur had traveled to various countries to study. Such as Egypt, Iraq, Germany and France. But the provision that he obtained from abroad did not necessarily guarantee his welfare in Indonesia.

Returning from a country of people, Gus Dur who only works as a journalist and speakers from campus to campus is not able to meet the needs of his family. Together with his wife and children, Abdurrahman made extra money by selling beans and delivering ice. Although a kyai, Gus Dur's family taught a liberal life and did not differ from gender. Domestic work is divided equally, there is no difference between men and women. According to his son's confession, Aisha got a job doing laundry at home.

5 - Megawati Soekarnoputri
Next is Megawati Soekarno Putri, the president who idolized her own father. Therefore since young he plunged into the political world. To train his socio-political life, Megawati joined the national student movement of Indonesia or GMNI. This movement is a student of marhenism or fight for the rights of the oppressed. Here he met his husband, the late Taufik Kemas. After that they join the party of democracy Indonesia or PDI.

Through a long political struggle, Megawati finally elected as the first woman president in Indonesia. replacing the hajj kyai Abdurrahman Wahid. Megawati election into the spotlight of the world, because leaders of the State women are rare. Even the United States that claims a liberal and democratic State does not yet have a female president.

Many thought that when Megawati became president she would demand the Soeharto regime's movement to bung karno and her family. But Megawati apparently still appreciate the law in Indonesia. he never intervened in the settlement of the Soeharto regime case and forgave the oppression that had been perpetrated against his family.

After Megawati stepped down from the presidency, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono or better known as SBY who was the minister of political and security coordinator during Megawati's reign was elected president of Indonesia to six. SBY became the first president of the Indonesian republic directly elected by the people. SBY realized in his reign social media is very potential in communicating with the people. He also opened several accounts for the means of communicating with the people.

Not only to report policy policy, SBY also poured out his heart on social media accounts. Not many know that SBY never felt slumped in childhood due to divorce of both parents. But SBY made this event a warning to be more advanced again for the happiness of the mother who has raised it. With his intelligence, SBY became a highly intellectual military member.

7 - Jokowi
Indonesia's seventh president is Joko Widodo or Jokowi. Being elected president is not the ideal of a Jokowi. With the intelligence he has, Jokowi trying to complete his education to get a degree from the faculty of forestry Gadjah Mada University. The process of completion of education is not easy to pass, several times Jokowi experiencing financial constraints. Trading, mocking umbrellas, and being a construction worker is a job that he acts as a child.

But with high spirits, Jokowi managed to become a timber businessman and send the results of its production to Europe. There is a hobby Jokowi that has not been done in the State palace, since he and his family occupy the palace. No frog toads that roam there. Because in addition to the cat, Jokowi also like to catch the frog and release them in the yard of the house.

When the mayor of Solo and the governor of Jakarta, Jokowi also release frog toads in the yard of his official house. When the rain comes that enjoys the choir of frog toads which makes the home atmosphere more natural.

Jokowi's political career began when he became mayor of Solo, a variety of buzz he did up against his own superior Central Java governor Bibit Waluyo. At that time Bibit satirical Jokowi as a fool for refusing the construction of shopping center of former land of petojo ice dance factory. According to Jokowi, the development will displace the traditional market of the people. This action makes it more popular. From the mayor of Solo, Jokowi went to Jakarta and was elected governor of DKI Jakarta.

Thus the fact attracted to 7 Indonesian Presidents who all had different backgrounds. All presidents have contributed to the Indonesian state. Sap continued the struggle of the presidents of Indonesia.
