After nearly 20 years of reform, democratization in Indonesia can be said to have settled. This is measured by the existence of general elections to elect legislators, presidents and regional heads peacefully and sustainably (Linz and Stepan 1996). With that measure, it not right for us to say that Indonesia is a country that is still in the stage of political consolidation.

However, it seems that it is still difficult to "label" the development of Indonesian democracy. Whether it has entered the next stage, the stage of strengthening democratic institutions, or even the opposite direction.
