Indonesian President Joko Widodo, dressed in traditional Central Javanese royalty outfit, smiles during a ceremony marking the country's 78th anniversary of independence at Merdeka Palace in Jakarta, Indonesia, on Aug. 17, 2023. Widodo's phenomenal rise from a riverside slum, where he grew up, to the presidency of Indonesia spotlighted how far the world's third-largest democracy had veered from a brutal authoritarian era a decade ago.
