Passing the National Examination 2013 (oops!) 2014
I've been following the news regarding the examination. There were educationalists who complain (eagerly supported by stressed students), reports of cheating acts, and (the most absurd of all, I present!) illicit presidential campaign. What! Here's a recap. Buzzfeed style.

These people harbor such a deep suspicion, with good reasons too! Heck, I was one of them a little while ago. The reasons are plenty, ranging from:
Well, this is unavoidable. Humans, after all, are creatures triumphant over natural selection. Too much stress? Why, there's no better opportunity for human's mind to develop nefarious plans of cheating. *Insert evil laugh here*
Disclaimer: Those are sarcastic thoughts.You're not going to accuse me of propagandizing cheating, right, government?
On a side note, here's a sweet solution that I've found on the web in regards to our moral problem:
Tadaa!! Instant no-cheat solution....
Translation:
Ir. H. Joko Widodo, born in Surakarta, 21 June 1961, was an alumnus of UGM (Gadjah Mada University). Jokowi has been elected as the Governor of Jakarta since October, 15. A figure who is known for his honesty and hard work, is also known by his style of "blusukan" - visiting remote areas in the city. He has achieved various awards, including being one of the best figures in his dedication for the people.
As a figure of arts and culture, he was seen as the most corruption-unaffected. Nevertheless, his work in the provincial minimum wage sector has encountered a glitch due to the action of factory workers: calling back their representative at the court procession. The consequence of the event prompted the wage department to determine the minimum wage at 2.2 million rupiah.
(This is a question in the Indonesian Language National Examination.)
Mr. Jokowi has been the recipient of attacks since the announcement of his running for the presidential seat. The critics immediately grabbed on this case like a lifeline, accusing Jokowi of an illicit campaign by the means of National Examination. I mean, seriously.
Here's 3 possible (and fictional, although there might be some truth in it, don'tyathink?) scenarios of what happened behind the screen:
And by the way, note to the question maker. The paragraphs look very hero-worshipy. Dude, you need to be more objective instead of controversial like that. But probably, the maker has intended for this to happen. Oooooh, conspiracy *rubbing hands together in glee*
That is all folks. The first installment in freedom day one!!
- Leaks, leaks and leaks. (Honestly, I don't think it's fair to judge a pantheon of honest students here from a few bad apples ;))
- UN is not an accurate measure of a student's aptitude. (I kind of agree with this one.)
- Waste of time and money by the government, for an exam that is able to be conducted by school's own teachers.
Cheaters (and making the rest of us look bad while doing so)

- A SUPER fan of Jokowi might have resided inside the Department of Education.
- Those PR people made a serious fault in judgment - instead of promoting Jokowi, it boomeranged against him.
- Someone (someone!) deliberately planned this as a mean to attack Jokowi.
