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".
