Maturity in democracy

From Bisnis Indonesia

The incident during a recent plenary session of the House of Representatives (DPR), when lawmakers brawled over the government's fuel price policy, was unnecessary.

The people's representatives should show maturity in practicing democracy and set a good example for the nation's younger people.

This country has experienced various hiccups in the democratization process and also has suffered natural disasters, so legislators should not create more trouble.

As delegates elected by the people, members of the DPR should help improve the nation and its global standing.

ENGELHARD R. WALEAN Cikarang, West Java
