Create public harmony<\/p>\n
From Media Indonesia<\/p>\n
As one among millions of Indonesians, I hope that the
\ngovernment can restore harmony and security for its people to
\nprevent them from being victims of the battle involving the
\npolitical elite or the elite of nongovernmental organizations
\n(NGOs).<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, voices of harmony, which put public safety
\nabove other things, seem to deserve less attention in the mass
\nmedia. News stories about disagreements, differences and violence
\nare accorded all the attention, instead.<\/p>\n
The media is now more interested in publishing the voice of
\nobservers who dare to stand against their opponents or the
\nopinions of NGOs that have the guts to condemn the authorities.<\/p>\n
In reality, there are calming voices from some groups that
\nhave the true right to speak up, as they once felt the bitterness
\nof the New Order regime.<\/p>\n
They are ex-political detainees and those who once opposed
\nsome policies of the then all-powerful New Order rulers. This
\ntime we are listening to the calming voices of the Mujahidin
\nWarsidi Talangsari group, which does not want theirs to become
\nthe target of certain NGOs' interests.<\/p>\n
In their opinion, the National Commission on Missing Persons
\nand Victims of Violence (Kontras) is making use of the Talangsari
\ncase as its target to slam the military in the interests of its
\nantimilitary ideology.<\/p>\n
Human rights have now been consigned to the dustbin following
\nthe violation of human rights by the United States itself, which
\nis labeled as the most serious human rights violator.<\/p>\n
