Row at MPR

It's really embarrassing that some members of the People's Consultative Assembly (MPR) were seen brawling in public. If we have such degraded members of the highest institution in this country, what can we expect from them? Before the scuffle, they were vying with one another to make interruptions as if they were little children who were just learning a new word, and they looked proud of it.

The most amazing thing was that they proudly said that the scuffle was nothing compared to the ones that occur in Taiwan and South Korea. My heart sank seeing the way the honorable members of the country's highest institution behaved.

MPR members, why don't you show that you are civilized Indonesians?
