Abstract
This article is directed to examine how did Indonesian people perceived Joko Widodo’s personal competence and leadership resiliency during the covid-19 pandemic era and the degree to which did political preference of these people on political party carry out effects on such perceptions. Focusing on these issues, this article adopts concepts of presidential leadership, personal competence, resilient leadership and political preference, collects the survei data derived from 1200 respondents using a multistage random sampling and extracts the survei data using descriptive and cross tabulation statistical analyses. The finding indicates that the Indonesian people’ perception of Joko Widodo’s personal competence and leadership resiliency to handle covid-19 pandemic-related problems varied. Most of them perceived that President Joko Widodo had personal competence and leadership resiliency to manage covid-19 pandemic. Polical preference of these people on political party are likely to determine these perceptions however. These evidences confirms that not merely a perception bias among these people regarding Joko Widodo’s personal competence and leadership resiliency to manage covid-19 pandemic-related problems keep evolving, but also political preference of these people on political party have been taking place as a determinant factor. This hints that a perception bias remained taking shape as influential factor that determines the development of Indonesian (electoral) politics.
