lelaki (yg) berpendirian/berprinsip/berwibawa
perhaps as ad-copy the more generic "seorang" may be preferable to "lelaki", as in:
- "Saya seorang (yang) berprinsip"
- "Saya seorang (yang) berpendirian"
- "Saya seorang (yang) berwibawa"
- "Saya seorang (yang) berprinsip"
- "Saya seorang (yang) berpendirian"
- "Saya seorang (yang) berwibawa"
