Just today, 9th of November, a few hours ago I had a little talk with my friend about the impossibility of Trump to become the 54th President of US, and now I checked my phone and every social media that I have is talking about him winning the presidential election..... I feel mad, scared, disappointed, and every single possibility of disappointment you could have, I might not be the only non-American who feels the same. But the feeling is real. I don't make it sound exaggerated, as a person who is involved in an organisation that strive for peace & fulfillment of humankind's potential as its core I feel small now, there are lot of things that we need to do now. I feel that what we have been built all these years since after the World War II is gone just the way ashes fly. How could someone who is in his election campaign insulted women, insulted people with disabilities, muslim, people with race, and you could say by yourself what other things he did during his campaign, is going to run the most powerful country in the world? I really feel that myself is literally only dust in this galaxy. I am right now shaking, I just couldn't believe it. I am scared to see the future society, moreover us Indonesian, a developing country citizen, what would we be like in the future when he is the president of that country. I would move out to the other side of the world if I could. But one thing that I realize, that's the reason why we are exist, why AIESEC exist, we are still relevant about what we do and what the world needs. Keep doing what we do, don't lose hope. Humanity still does exist.
Sincerely, Vita, a 20 years old female who is afraid of her country's people fate during the next 4 years.
