Build national spirit<\/p>\n
Being Indonesia is choosing a long and difficult way. But that
\nis what the founding fathers chose, making the pluralist country
\nof the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia.<\/p>\n
It is not easy to maintain this national concept and spirit.
\nIt is much easier to arouse primitive enthusiasm than national
\nspirit.<\/p>\n
One threat is religious conflict, which is rooted in faith and
\nbelief. The conflict would become more serious if it was also
\ntriggered by political interests, such as establishing one's own
\ncountry.<\/p>\n
From this perspective, we look at the meaning of Vice
\nPresident Hamzah Haz' visit to Ambon.<\/p>\n
Yet, it is a tour showing that the Vice President belongs to
\neveryone in the nation of all religions. In Ambon, he held a
\ndialog with Muslims and Christians, as well as giving assistance
\nto mosques and churches.<\/p>\n
The spectacular thing is that Laskar Jihad turned over
\nthousands of weapons to Hamzah Haz. On the other hand, the Vice
\nPresident demanded that the regional military command crush the
\nRepublic of South Maluku separatist movement.<\/p>\n
After the government strengthens the organizational structure
\nof the civil emergency authority, all forms of conflict and
\nviolations should end.<\/p>\n
To this point, the Vice President's visit to Maluku was very
\nimportant in building the spirit of nationalism and bringing
\nharmony to the nation's children who have killed one another over
\nthe years.<\/p>\n
