What leadership?

What leadership?

From Suara Karya

The Indonesian military (TNI) has again been accused of considering the civilian government incapable of leading the nation. Suggesting that, under President Megawati Soekarnoputri, (civilian leadership), the country has suffered, but under president Soeharto, (the military), peace and security could be maintained.

In fact, the TNI and those taking the military's position should refrain from unnecessary polemics or debates. The matter should be left to society to evaluate, because it is society that has directly witnessed the conduct, attitudes and performance of national leaders -- both civilian and military. Only the public can decide which of these two groups will best lead the unitary state of the Republic of Indonesia.
