Honesty is essence of truth

Honesty is essence of truth

From Koran Tempo

Indonesia is starting to resemble a stale cake.

Aspects of life have been corroded by the people's
increasingly indifferent attitude towards the nation's destiny:
national leaders, ministers, legislators, lecturers, among
others, have all been raised to tell lies.

This grooming has led officials to ignore the human rights of
others due to their own ambiguous attitude -- it is really
saddening. National leaders must be aware that the country is
now being hit by a violent storm.

All of us, therefore, should be honest ourselves to ensure
that no more new Akbar Tandjung or Amien Rais will be born into
the next generation.

It is easy to speak honestly and it is here that truth lies.
