The President must act now

The President must act now

From Bisnis Indonesia

In my opinion, several actions can be taken simultaneously to overcome the fuel shortages. One is to stop the smuggling of this commodity at any cost, and the smugglers must tried under the law on terrorism. And if necessary, shoot them on the spot.

Second, eradicate price differences in fuel. Increase the prices of all types of fuel in order to reduce subsidies and thus reduce the state financial burden. The government must have the guts to face the politicians who share the same interests with the tycoons, and aim to crush President Susilo's government by whatever means available to them.

I call on the President to act against manipulators and corruptors, who do not take care about the people's suffering and never stop aspiring to dominate the country. It's a matter of "now or never".
