Pancasila morals

Pancasila morals

From Media Indonesia

It should be regretted if there are still some Indonesians who cannot accept Pancasila morals to be included in school subjects.

Pancasila morals are a means to unite school children who have different creeds. Pancasila morals will teach everybody to believe in spirituality. School children should be taught to be good citizens and do good things for the society.

The country needs good, capable and skilled citizens. The country will become strong if the people are tolerant and respect each other. The President has made it clear that Pancasila morals and religion should be in harmony.

Every individual should be unbiased in looking at religions. After all Indonesia was once a colonized country. So it is quite probable that differences in perceptions on certain matters still exist. It is here that Pancasila morals have an important role to play: to teach the children to love and respect each other.
