Jakarta Governor Greeted By His Supporters During His Inspection Of Bus Transportation In Jakarta

In this photo taken on Jan. 3, 2013, Jakarta Gov. Joko Widodo, right, is greeted by his supporter during his inspection of bus transportation in Jakarta, Indonesia. Widodo’s trip through his inundated city of 14 million reflected his hands-on approach to leadership, a style that helped him win election in September against an incumbent who was backed by the establishment political parties. His traffic plans include more buses to ply the city’s dedicated lanes, some of which have already arrived, more roads and a scheme that would restrict the amount of cars that travel into the city center each day based on whether their license plate ends in odd or even number.
