Lack of mature mind

Lack of mature mind

After hearing and reading the comment about the Indonesian
Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI Perjuangan), I feel very sad to
learn that so many "scholars" of politics and religious affairs
who hold degrees, are no more than narrow-minded people. Because
of their self interest, they have been trying to stop Megawati
from becoming the next president by giving religious arguments.

In my opinion, if PDI Perjuangan wins the elections with more
than 40 percent of the votes, Megawati should be entitled to
become the next leader of Indonesia, regardless of her gender.

It is time that we, the people of Indonesia, should learn to
be more mature of mind.
