Discrepancy in development<\/p>\n
The difference in the development in western Indonesia and
\neastern Indonesia is growing. This can be seen from all aspects
\nof development such as education, health, transportation, social
\nwelfare and many other areas.<\/p>\n
In terms of the development in eastern Indonesia especially in
\nEast Nusatenggara (NTT), the difference has been exacerbated by
\nbad governance in the region as reported in the media ( Pos
\nKupang), with corruption cases prevailing practically in all
\nregencies.<\/p>\n
Does this reflect our culture or \"the greedy mice\" who pretend
\nto be good and honest people? On the other hand, ordinary people
\nwho live in the villages are not corrupt and do not steal
\ngovernment money, yet they keep supporting the government.<\/p>\n
However, when they suffer, not many people who benefit from
\nthe goodness of these people help them. The central government
\nraises fuel prices for the sake of their political interests and
\nyet are very slow to respond to the threat of starvation in most
\nareas in NTT.<\/p>\n
It is an irony that there is a great amount of money allocated
\nfor the poor from our national budget but in fact the poor
\ncontinue to suffer.<\/p>\n
Please be honest with the common people because they do not
\nunderstand the ABC of politics and power.<\/p>\n
