perbankan di sana sangat sulit sekali tidak segampang di tempat kita. [For example about issues related to banking, I think BI Bank of Indonesia has regulations that can give obstacles, that can give barrier so they cannot go into our areas easily because if we look, if we want to establish a bank branch in other country, our neighbors is very difficult, I heard directly from bank staff that they wanted to establish a bank branch there, it was extremely difficult, not as easy as our place.] D2S5J

Below is Jokowi’s turn to convey his vision and mission in second debate under the theme “Pembangunan Ekonomi dan Kesejahteraan Sosial”. In the first segment, The President Candidates were asked to convey in 6 minutes their vision and mission relating to the topic of debate, Pembangunan Ekonomi dan Kesejahteraan Sosial . The form of this segment was speech which consists of opening, body and closing. Introduction consists of greeting, gratitude and possibly the background of the speech. Arguments are mostly laid in the body part. The last part consists of conclusion, apology and gratitude. Therefore, the structure of arguments are mostly achieved from the body of speech. His claim in the argument is “Bagi saya, ekonomi ditujukan sebesar-besarnya untuk kemakmuran rakyat. Itulah ekonomi yang berdikari” [For me, economy is made for the citizens’ prosperity. That is called independent economy]. The words “bagi saya” signs Jokowi’s claim in this argument.”Bagi saya” which means “for me” is claim indicator and as well as a qualifier. It is also classified as qualifier because it makes his claim limited to his point of view. The ground for claim in argument D2S1J is Jokowi’s experience in meeting many people from different background which he said “Saya berdiri di sini karena saya saat bertemu Ibu Heli... harapan-harapan kepada kami untuk membangun sebuah ekonomi yang lebih baik, memajukan ekonomi Indonesia lebih baik”. Jokowi used his experiences in meeting many people who are from different backgrounds and locations asking him to build a better economy for Indonesia. Experience is included as one of the ground types. Albeit “saya berdiri di sini” precedes “karena” it cannot be classified as a claim since it is not the core of the argument D2S1J. Saya berdiri di sini karena saya saat bertemu Ibu Heli tukang cuci dari Menado, Sulawesi utara. Saya bertemu Pak Abdulah nelayan dari Belawan di Sumatra Utara dan saat saya ke Banyumas saya bertemu Ibu Satinah buruh tani yang setiap hari bekerja di sawah dan saya juga bertemu Pak Asep seorang guru di Jawa Barat dan jutaan orang yang ada di negara ini yang menitipkan pesan menitipkan harapan-harapan kepada kami untuk membangun sebuah ekonomi yang lebih baik memajukan ekonomi Indonesia lebih baik. [I stand here because I met Mrs. Heli, washerwoman from Manado, North Sulawesi. I met Mr. Abdulah, fisherman from Belawan in North Sumatra and when I went to Banyumas I met Mrs. Satinah, farm labour who is every day work in the fields and I also met Pak Asep, teacher in West Java and millions of people in this country who send their messages, entrust their hopes to us to build a better Indonesias economy.] Ground Bagi saya, [For me,] Qualifier ekonomi ditujukan sebesar-besarnya untuk kemakmuran rakyat. Itulah ekonomi yang berdikari. [economy is aimed as much as possible for the prosperity of the people .That is economic that is self-reliance.] Claim D2S1J Below is Jokowi’s argument about poverty and job field in Indonesia from debate 2 segment 3. The moderator guided a question in those fields whereas he gave a background knowledge that there were lots of programs and also budgets for diminishing poverty, but the fact, there had been no significant reduction of poverty within Indonesia. Jokowi started with a claim in which he said “It is needed to make programs to reduce poverty. Not only is it needed to prepare the budget, but the most important one is also to build the system” as a response to the moderator’s question. Then, it is followed by a ground in which Jokowi mentioned that the complaints were about those fields, education and health see ground. There is no connecting bridge between the presence of the claim and ground, which is usually called warrant. Untuk masalah kemiskinan, memang harus kita berani memberikan program-program khusus kepada masyarakat yang masih kurang beruntung, tetapi bukan hanya disiapkan anggarannya saja yang paling penting menurut saya adalah sistemnya yang dibangun, sistemnya dulu yang dibangun. [For the problem of poverty , we must dare to provide special programs to people who are still disadvantaged , but not only prepared the budget are most important in my opinion is the system built , the system first built .] Claim Oleh sebab itu kenapa waktu menjadi wali kota dan menjadi gubernur kami berkonsentrasi selalu di bidang pendidikan dan kesehatan. Karena apa? Di bawah keluhannya selalu itu. [Therefore why time became mayor and became governor we always concentrate in the fields of education and health . Because of what? Under his complaint was always that.] Ground D2S3J Jokowi was asked about his infrastructure planning in roads, trains and shipping. Jokowi said that it was important to have sea toll roads. He supported his claim by giving a result reason in ground a saying “sehingga yang namanya kapal dari barat sampai ke timur, dari ujung Sumatra sampai nantinya di Papua itu selalu ada bolak balik- bolak balik.“ [so that there are ships going back from the west to the east]. The conjunction ‘sehingga’ signs that it is a result reason of the previous statement. The second ground is about the price of cement in Java which was around 50.000- 60.000 IDR, but in Papua, it was around 500.000-1.500.000. That ground is in the for m of causal reason why it is important to have sea toll roads. The word ‘karena’ signals a causal reason between the preceding statement and following statement after the conjunction. Saya kira di depan tadi sudah saya sampaikan mengenai infrastruktur, tapi memang belum kita jelaskan. Infrastruktur di negara kita ini, menurut saya ke depan yang paling penting adalah tol laut, tol laut ini penting sekali [I guess in the beginning future I have already said about infrastructure, but we have not explained that. , I think in the future for infrastructure in our country, the most important is sea toll , the toll is very important sea] Claim sehingga yang namanya kapal dari barat sampai ke timur, dari ujung Sumatra sampai nantinya di Papua itu selalu ada bolak balik-bolak balik. [so that the vessel from west to east, from the tip of Sumatra to Papua always go back and forth - back and forth.] Ground a Kenapa ini harus ada?Ini karena yang kita lihat semen yang ada, yang ada di Jawa harganya 50-60 ribu di Papua bisa 1,2 bisa 1,5 juta, bisa 500 ribu . [Why has to be there? It is because we see that cement in Java, it costs 50-60 thousand. In Papua can be 1,2 to 1,5 million , can be 500 thousand.] Ground b D2S4J
