Selamat Hari Pancasila!

To All My Indonesian Readers!

Selamat Hari Pancasila!

=

For non-Indonesian readers, Pancasila is the state ideology here, which encompasses the aspirations of the nation’s founders, most relevantly these days the belief that everyone should be free to worship as they wish.

Unfortunately, not everybody in Indonesia seems entirely at ease with that admirable sentiment.

We have written about that problem more than once.

If you wish to know more, just insert the letters FPI into our nice little Search Box, over there to the right.

Selamat Hari Pancasila – In Lombok Too?

Happy Pancasila Day, a relatively new public holiday in Indonesia, on which I commented last year…

….contemplating the meaning of the word, which is all about pluralism and brotherhood.

My observations then should still resonate with Indonesians who cherish their heritage of religious tolerance, which has been gravely undermined since last year…

Ahok

….what with the imprisonment of Jakarta’s Christian Governor Ahok for the mediaeval ‘crime’ of ‘blasphemy’- in his case merely quoting a Koranic verse during his election campaign, a quip which his largely Muslim audience at the time took in good part, but which was then seized on…

Slouching Towards Shariah, Indonesia Jails Ahok! 

….by the worst elements in the archipelago, hordes of sectarian bigots marching through Jakarta calling for the honest, pleasant man to be ‘burned.’

We even had reports of brain-washed brats squealing similarly sectarian hate-grunts.

• Governor Anies won an adoring smile from ferocious fanatic Habib Rizieq, who had suggested the Christian Governor Ahok (Anies’ predecessor)  be slain for unacceptably quoting some Koranic verse –.“We encourage the government to process the death penalty for Ahok as soon as possible,” said Rizieq.

…thanks to mean-spirited, intolerant Islamists.

And as for the peaceful and utterly harmless Ahmadi minority?Only this month, moronic savages ran amok in Lombok…

Ahmadi community comes under attack in East Lombok, as homes and properties destroyed

Over the past two days, eight homes, four motorcycles and a shop have been destroyed. “The attacks were based on similar reasons: hatred and intolerance,” said a spokesperson for the Ahmadiyah Indonesia Congregation.

“It’s not the first and definitely won’t be the last attack. It’s been years and the Ahmadi community continues to live under threats…”

So let’s hope those poor victims in Lombok can find something to cheer about on this Pancasila Day.

Jakarta Post’s True Colours – ‘Hands off Islamists!’

Most of us understand the clear difference between Muslims and Islamists.

One of the former had a modest meal in my home last night. Another will likely drop by for a pleasant visit over the weekend. The folks I met up with in town yesterday were Muslims.

They are fasting, most of them, this Ramadhan. They don’t eat pork. Most of them don’t share my enthusiasm for beer.

They are normal people who follow their religious customs and respect the fact that a lot of people have either different religious practices or no religious affiliation at all.

Islamists are something else entirely.

They are bigoted fanatics who are essentially intolerant and believe that their ways should dictate our ways. They hold power in Indonesia’s Aceh Province, where women of ANY creed are coerced into head-shrouding under the oppressive shariah code.

Islamist rule in Aceh is an endless nightmare…

…whose ‘high priest’ – currently keenly sought by the police – told us that Governor Ahok deserved death for the ridiculous ‘offence’ of ‘blasphemy,’ which in Ahok’s case merely comprised quoting a Koranic verse and questioning its meaning.

The MUI are also blood-thirsty, demanding stoning and flogging, not for criminals who seriously merit such punishment, like the savage mob who murdered the three Ahmadi martyrs at Cikeusik…

That’s who Islamists are, and what they do.

BUT…says the anonymous editorial  in the Jakarta Post…

…celebrations beyond this “Pancasila Week” must avoid worsening the mistake of suppressing Islamists.

http://www.thejakartapost.com/academia/2017/05/31/editorial-a-pancasila-holiday.html

 Okay, we know that the Jakarta Post’s parent company, Gramedia, has a shameful record of collaboration with the Islamists, to the extent of overseeing a Hitlerian book-burning bonanza in support of the MUI’s vendetta against freedom of thought and expression.

Jakarta Post – A Nelson’s Eye View Of ‘Pluralism!’ 

But so far, while editorial cowardice has prevented any condemnation of that Nazi-style arson, they have never openly endorsed it either.

Does this latest outbreak of Islamist empathy now signal that the JP is going belatedly to its support for Gramedia’s grisly intolerance?

A question all the more important as we celebrate this, Pancasila Day!

Happy Pancasila Day – Is ‘Brotherhood’ Worth A Hundred Yard Walk?

It’s Pancasila Day, a new public holiday in Indonesia, declared by President Jokowi to promote the pluralist vision of the nation’s founding fathers, who had no time for the Islamist bigotry which is increasingly blighting this lovely country.

The national ideology is all about unity in diversity, and although I myself have no work to go to, being happily retired from the daily routine, I shall enjoy the relaxation thus mandated.

Pak Presiden wants everyone to feel as if they are ‘brothers’ and we might assume he agrees with his son, Kaeseng, who’s reported in the Jakarta Post to have published these admirable sentiments.

“We need to work together to build a better Indonesia, not by slandering each other or claiming others as infidels. Moreover, there was campaign to not provide proper burial rites to Muslims on the basis of voting preferences, how did that come about?”http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2017/05/29/kaesang-criticizes-viral-video-of-children-chanting-hate-speech-calls-for-tolerance.html

Wonderful words, but how about deeds?

How about some Sunday morning, this Ramadhan month, Jokowi emerges from his palace downtown and walks a hundred yards across the road…

With Jokowi’s Palace in the background, the victims of Islamist evil proclaim their faith

“We are Indonesia, we live in diversity,” says Kaeseng.

It would be a fine reaffirmation of that principle if his illustrious Dad joined the victims of sectarianism…
