History
During the meeting after the declaration of establishment of Indokistan in 16 September 2010, it was agreed that Dicky L. K. would be the first vice president, as to give all founders a leadership position in the newly-formed country.
Being the president's deputy, the vice president ought to be the second in-command in Indokistan. However, as the prime minister was more visible in day-to-day governance, the vice presidential office was eclipsed by them, particularly as the vice presidential office only offered minor duties and influences for its holders.
This issue forcing holders of the vice presidential office to find another way to influencing and be recognized by the country, which was done by both vice presidents. Dicky L. K. decided to concentrate on his literature career, which made him popular in Indokistani public, while Badra Shidqi already renowned as a strong military leader.
After his victory in 2011 election, the position of vice president was largely considered unimportant, with Dicky L. K. appointing Badra Shidqi as vice president merely on formality purposes. In October 2011, the position was literally forgotten and abandoned by its only successor, with no objection raised.
The position of vice president was failed to be made official in the constitution as there was no provision to regulate it - the prime minister instead was installed as the first in the line of succession, further reduced the necessity of vice president role. Resignation of Dicky L. K. in February 2012 and ascession of Mustafa Hakim as president sealed the hope for the restoration of vice presidential office.
