Responding to 2002<\/p>\n
From Media Indonesia<\/p>\n
In the year of 2002, shall we continue to behave like before:
\nnamely, showing off our wealth, seeking fortune by any means,
\nblaspheming and belittling one another, placing our own interests
\nover others', working unprofessionally and defying religious
\nteachings?<\/p>\n
Apparently, people feel tired, stressed and even frustrated
\nliving in a country where there is no clear implementation of the
\npeople's visions. Where is this country be heading? We are
\nashamed of being Indonesians and must take pity on our younger
\ngenerations as heirs of the nation.<\/p>\n
I therefore call on the president and all the people to
\ncontemplate, pray and vow that the year 2002 will become the year
\nfor the resurgence of the country's creativity and achievement.<\/p>\n
I propose five principles for building a happy nation, namely,
\n(1) to live modestly as a manifestation of empathy for our debt-
\nridden country and the unfavorable conditions experienced by the
\nlarger part of the nation, (2) to respect and appreciate each
\nother, (3) to work hand in hand to build the nation, (4) to be
\ndisciplined, honest and creative in work, (5) to follow religious
\nteachings.<\/p>\n
