Haj demonstration
Haj demonstration
From Neraca
I was concerned when I witnessed the demonstration held
recently in Yogyakarta to protest against the chaos involving the
departure of haj pilgrims from that province. They should know
that demonstrations never solve the problem, only complicate it.
What they could do is to give suggestions, to the authorities,
on how to find a breakthrough for the problem and make sure that
similar problems do not happen again.
I strongly believe that the government will take stern
measures against the individuals who are found guilty of abusing
their power, and have caused trouble to a number of potential haj
pilgrims who have paid the pilgrimage costs.
