Fighting injustice

Fighting injustice

The Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) and the Betawi Brotherhood
Forum (FBR) have conducted raids against entertainment venues.

Why don't they just raid Terminal III of Soekarno-Hatta
Airport? A lot of injustice happens there. For example, my
brother's maid recently went to the airport to pick up her
sister, who was arriving from overseas. Upon entering the parking
lot, she was asked to pay Rp 80,000.

After meeting her sister, she had to fill in a form declaring
that she was a relative of an arriving worker, for which she was
charged Rp 120,000. When they finally got to their rented
minivan, they had pay another Rp 50,000 just to get out of the
parking lot.

They are brethren of the FPI, FBR, so why don't they defend
them? Members of these groups are simply thugs who dishonor
religion and native Jakartans. If they are really serious in
helping law enforcement why don't they also go after the gambling
dens that blatantly operate in many parts of Jakarta? Or drug
trafficking in so many back alleys. Or help to unravel traffic
snarls in Tanah Abang?
