In this episode, we discuss the recent controversies around Teman Ahok — in particular, whether the initial funding to start the organization was actually money from the reclamation bribery scandal. We compare Teman Ahok with, arguably, its equivalent in U.S. politics, OFA, and talk about whether Teman Ahok is similar to PACs and SuperPACs (Political Action Committees). We delve a little bit into the history of campaign funding in Indonesia and wrap the episode up with our hopes for — per usual — cleaner, more democratic politics. |
