President Joko Widodo turns 56 today, and thank goodness he's not retiring yet.
Instead of having a birthday party, Jokowi spends the day with his routine visits, or blusukan, in Bogor District of West Java.

(The president) will visit four places today, including Bogor, Ciawi and Sukabumi, said Cabinet Secretary Pramono Agung today at Bogor Palace.
Pramono added that there will be no special celebrations today.
Its going to be like past years, just doing the usual (work), he said. Like me, he never celebrates his birthday (with parties).
