"Pesta Demokrasi" or Party of Democracy is what Indonesia's former President Soeharto called Indonesia's elections. However it was only after Soeharto was forced to step down in 1998 that Indonesia's elections became an outburst of joy and passion.

Here a supporter of the Indonesian Democracy Struggle Party PDI-P prays to the gods that Megawati Soekarnoputri's party may win the election. Behind him a man is holding a bull horn. The bull is the mascot of the PDI-P.
