Waiting for President to protect pluralism

I do agree with Pandaya's opinion in his article Sang Timur
affair exposes government discrimination (The Jakarta Post, Nov.
11). There are many forms of discrimination and conflicts that
are partly caused by our weak legal system, and lack of
government intervention.

The Sang Timur affair, and many other conflicts, are not only
about religious matters, or the minority versus the majority,
they are about human rights.

The right to a place to worship, the right to education, the
right to security etc. I also have been waiting for our new
President to prove his commitment to protecting pluralism in
Indonesia.

ROSINTA, Jakarta
