Therefore, he called his crucial acting, a leader and state officials must be able to have a calm attitude and put forward "cold thinking" when responding to or solving problems. "Leaders must be calm, have ideas, not emotional, because there are many problems of this nation, if our leader is not calm, of course not good. Leaders should not be emotional," he said.Jusuf Kalla also suggested that candidates for heads of state should imitate and emulate the leadership properties of the Prophet Muhammad SAW. "It must be a mandate, tabligh, at best who is the best, most trustworthy, that's the grip. Because we have to follow the knowledge of the Prophetullah SAW," he said.
