Democracy should be built from community by giving political education thru understanding about different opinion in community. In term of that, in 2007, Jakarta will hold governor election involving all communities to vote their candidate based on their choice. Community involvement is important key to develop their knowledge on how to vote their best candidates and to avoid money politic that often happens in Indonesia. Another important thing is monitoring during election and vote count, especially due to rumor about money politic that will happen.
