Why not Chinese-Indonesians also?

I was thrilled to see the photograph of Westerners sitting on
top of a car donning Megawati's party uniform and giving the PDI
sign, on the front page of The Jakarta Post on May 29, 1999.

I would like to see a similar photograph of Chinese-
Indonesians joining the campaign, so that the much-felt
discrimination against them would disappear by showing themselves
as full-fledge Indonesian nationals, instead of staying
"neutral".
