Losing Gracefully | Grace Natalie | TEDxJakarta

Grace Natalie is a chairperson and co-founder of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI). This year she competed as a member of the legislature where she received the most votes in her electoral district with 179.949 votes. But since her party failed to gain enough votes to pass the national electoral threshold, she didn’t get elected. In this talk, Grace explains how the loses resulted in her regained conviction that everything in our life is political. So people’s ignorance and apathy actually do harm than good for their own sake, because many things in our day-to-day life are decided politically. Grace started her career as a journalist and television host for 8 years, working at various prominent national stations in Indonesia. Grace used to host Apa Kabar Indonesia Malam, a talk show program focused on the latest controversial political and social issues. She believes that participatory politics culture, meritocratic leadership, and an accountable & professionally managed political party are mandatory requirements needed for politicians of today. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
