What are they afraid of?<\/p>\n
Why is a "certain political elite" afraid of Megawati becoming
\ntheir next president?<\/p>\n
I was born in Jakarta and have been living in Indonesia for 24
\nyears and love this nation and its people tremendously, but
\nlately do not understand why "they" are making all this fuss
\nabout Ibu Megawati becoming the next president. Or do I
\nunderstand incorrectly?<\/p>\n
The people of Indonesia have said clearly that they want
\nchange and have said clearly that they want Ibu Megawati as their
\nnext president, so why is it becoming all of a sudden such a
\nproblem for this "political elite". Is it because they are afraid
\nof losing their comfortable lives? Or is it that they are afraid
\nthat all of a sudden they are to become accountable for their
\npast performances, their sins and bad deeds? Or is it maybe that
\nthey do not want to give up their comfortable lives? Is it maybe
\nthat they do not want Indonesia to become a nation of loving,
\nhonest, hard-working and proud people? Is it maybe that they
\nstill want to cling to their power, and suppress the majority of
\nthe people of Indonesia? Have they not learned from the past?<\/p>\n
Please, let us forget our differences and together build this
\nbeautiful nation under the leadership of whoever people will
\nchoose to be their next president, to become a nation in which
\ndemocracy has triumphed, and one in which we all could be proud
\nto say, "I am Indonesian".<\/p>\n
