[PHOTOS] Indonesia President Forced To Trek To A State Event After Being Stuck In Traffic

Indonesia President, Joko Widodo was forced to treck 2km to an important state event after him and his convoy were stuck in his country’s notorious traffic.

Widodo and senior government officials were held up by gridlock as they approached the military parade in Cilegon, a port city about two and a half hours drive from the capital Jakarta, the presidential palace said.

After a 30-minute wait, “the president then decided from inside the car that he would walk,” Widodo’s guard Ili Dasili said in a statement. National police chief Tito Karnavian, who was also stuck in the jam, joined the president.
