Indonesian First Family shuns excessive lifestyles, won’t parade wealth

THE children of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono may have no reservations about showing off their luxurious lifestyles, but the children of Joko “Jokowi” Widodo, who was sworn in as president on Monday, are on the other side of the fence.

Although they are far younger than the Yudhoyonos, there is no indication that they are fond of the latest Apple iPhone, Land Rover SUVs or high-end fashion, despite the fact that their parents can certainly afford such things.
