Acehnese want peace

From Koran Tempo

Indonesians must be grateful to God that the separatist Free Aceh Movement (GAM) has now lost much of its strength. It is only a matter of time before the entire secessionist movement is completely crushed.

GAM members are really cowards as they dare not face the Indonesian military in an armed contact. They only bully unarmed civilians and have forced civilian Acehnese to supply them with foods.

Acehnese themselves have now stood against GAM and hoisted the Red and White flag, the flag of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI), all over Aceh.

Acehnese have now openly supported the NKRI and help the Indonesian military/police chase GAM members. They really long to see the return of security and peace in Aceh.
