The organisation emphasised that differences of opinion and criticism of policy are healthy but must remain rooted in a single national spirit. KAMMI also encouraged civil society groups to channel their demands through official forums and legislative audiences.",
        "content": "<p>The Indonesian Muslim Students Action Union (KAMMI) has called on all\ncitizens to strengthen national unity. The appeal is KAMMI\u2019s response to\nthe democratic situation that has been developing recently.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKAMMI invites everyone to work together to build and strengthen\nnational unity,\u201d said KAMMI Chairman Amri Akbar at a press conference at\na caf\u00e9 in the Tebet area of South Jakarta on Friday (21\/8\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>He argued that Indonesia\u2019s independence ideals of justice, prosperity\nand freedom from corruption can only be realised if all elements of the\nnation move together within the framework of unity, rather than within\nregional or group divisions. They therefore called for unity among the\nentire public.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo that end, the KAMMI Central Board affirms that national unity is\nan absolute prerequisite for the sustainability of national development.\nDifferences of opinion and criticism of policy are healthy, but they\nmust remain grounded in a single national spirit, not divide the people\ninto mutually suspicious camps,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>He continued that students have a moral and intellectual\nresponsibility to serve as an elegant bridge connecting the people\u2019s\naspirations with state administrators. In his view, student actions\nshould not inflame the situation with confrontational narratives.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe encourage all elements of society, including AMPB and the Arif\nCoalition, to channel demands for eradicating corruption, including the\ndraft Asset Forfeiture Law and equitable law enforcement, through\nofficial forums, legislative audiences and the public participation\nmechanisms already available as a sign of democratic maturity,\u201d he\nsaid.<\/p>\n<p>He also noted that unity does not mean uniformity of opinion, but\nrather the willingness of all the nation\u2019s children to struggle together\nfor the same goal. He wants the public to unite for an Indonesia that is\nclean, sovereign and dignified, without threatening or harming one\nanother as components of the nation.<\/p>",
