New Ways of Being Indonesia

By Risman A Rachman

The entry of Komodo Island as one of seven winners in the arena while the New7Wonders of Nature adds another way for people to Indonesia.

Previously, only there are only two ways to become Indonesia whole, ie, through solidarity against colonialism and the second through the compactness help areas affected by the tsunami disaster and conflict in Aceh.

August 17, 1945 Independence celebration is the culmination of the compactness of all the people of all regions who managed to end the occupation of all the blood spilled and then we call Indonesia.

All areas either already occupied by the invaders, or areas free from colonialism, or areas that still continue to fierce resistance against the invaders with a very compact united to become the nation of Indonesia Pancasila identity.

Unfortunately, if all the people of Indonesia can be compact and gave his support to fight the invaders that ended with the celebration of the independence of Indonesia then the compactness of the people whose names have not been the case for the development of Indonesia. Instead, development is increasingly eroding the nation as a human being so self Pancasila.

Variety of crimes against humanity, diversity destruction of "natural paradise Indonesia" (sda) continues from time to time. All this happens because the mentality of the organizers of the development of Indonesia is no longer based on the spirit of Pancasila. Consequently, the cohesiveness of the whole people of Indonesia do not wake up and not be a nation modalities to achieve the ideals of the independence of Indonesia.

It is therefore understandable when there are many areas that later chose to resist and revolt because it no longer has a human Indonesia hopes to become a compact to achieve the ideals of the ideals of Indonesia.

Each region by those who sit as the organizer of Indonesia only compact development to progress more extreme area or just to build up the grandeur and power of the center of power.

Humanitarian and Peace

Actually, all the people of Indonesia are very easy to compact to the name Indonesia. Considerable evidence can be mentioned, one of which for the case of Aceh.

People Indonesia all compact and show solidarity and humanitarian support high when the tsunami hit Aceh. This support eventually became one of human capital for the birth celebration of peace in Aceh is also greeted with enthusiasm from all the people of Indonesia.

Aceh, which was suspected by a small sebahagian will be separated from Indonesia due to political compromise instead intangibles to be an area that diversity enriches the meaning of Indonesia in the side of democracy. If the first kebinnekaan recognizable only from the cultural side kebinnekaan it for example but now also visible from the side of politics and democracy. Although it remains Unity in Diversity.

Cover

Of the three ways to become Indonesia's by chance two of which contained a large role of Jusuf Kalla. Jusuf Kalla, who is assisted by various parties and get support from the president in various forms became a key actor in rehabilitation, post-tsunami reconstruction and peace in Aceh rekonsilisasi.

Even now, Jusuf Kalla became one of the key actors in the Komodo National Park campaign which eventually became one of the New7Wonders of Nature or the seven wonders of the world for natural categories. Although only a temporary victory, but all this is evidence of how we can still be Indonesia who also departed from the spirit of togetherness as a people of Indonesia.

Will there be an initiator or a young leader from among the people of Indonesia who will be able to move the cohesiveness of all the people to support Indonesia's development towards the ideals of the independence of Indonesia in 2014? Alternatively, the leader was still named Jusuf Kalla had formerly held by The Real President?
