The graft against nationalism

Nationalism is an ideology or doctrine that creates and maintains the sovereignty of a country to realize the concept of the common identity of a group of people whose language and culture of a connecting element in social interaction. Coupling gives rise to consciousness of nationalism communities / people of Indonesia, when it comes to disturbing external environment.

In the history of Indonesia, in particular, nationalism is still very critical of its existence, first, for example, as a unifying ideology to fight against the Dutch or Japanese, or the struggle against the hegemony of neoliberalism-kolonilalisme. First, if the people of this archipelago has continued to spread, there is no unifying ideology, and of course, the Dutch easily overwhelm us. It is likely that people throughout the archipelago will be fighting among themselves. Furthermore, when the Dutch policy would cause hostility and infuse the continuing conflict. Second, as a result, when people across the archipelago had managed to free at least nationalism as an ideological discourse to evoke the spirit of the independence of Indonesia. This type of nationalism, although sometimes misunderstood, why keep the trend of Indonesian nationalism hostile to other nations.

However, the increase, as the new nation is trying to stay as compact as the conflicts that could threaten the unity of Indonesia can be addressed on behalf of Indonesian nationalism. Thirdly, most of nationalism can not be used to provide the identity of the Indonesia-ness, so that Indonesia was in the world. However, what is recorded with the world of Indonesian nationalism. Probably not much. At that time, regardless of the construction of Orientalism, people are more familiar with Indonesia as a nation are very friendly countries, developing countries and the poor have a language of Indonesia unit, the afterlife is more than 600 local languages ​​still exist today.

Well, in our country, Indonesia has launched a series of understanding the concept of nationalism in the archipelago are displayed in a single unit: the ideology, political, economic, social, cultural, religious, national security and defense). Therefore, every citizen of Indonesia, in particular when he was appointed as a leader in the power structure in place must have the archipelago that the issue should have an absolute obligation to participate in the maintenance of territorial integrity Indonesia, from Sabang to Merauke, as indicated in draft IPOLEKSOSBUDAGHANKAMNAS.

Now this from the comments of the experts can not be denied, our sense of nationalism is very thin, even at the risk of extinction. Primordialism came Association, are designed to tribal ties, regional groups, religious and / or between.

History has shown over the past 30 years, Indonesia holding a model of authoritarian rule, commonly called the New Order regime. Consequently, many problems of resentment and discontent beneath the surface turbulence. The most important thing was the death of democracy, corruption menjamurkan, the absence of a just law, and so on. Thanks to the condition of the stretcher, the potential for cracks became a bomb. Many people try to mobilize religion or ethnicity, or even brought the world such as democracy and the discourse of universal justice to strengthen the resistance. With an anxious and distracted, the total resistance to the regime by force, overt or covert. We know that in that time the army was in power and fear. The military do with the spirit of Indonesian nationalism. However, the most effective strategy to counter the resistance of the government's use of New Order nationalism to control and potentially devastating menek also the state government. In this case, nationalism should be constructed so that concrete ways to maintain pluralism (national unity), so that the disappointments that occur in local-local can be broken.

Indonesian nationalism stressed ethnic nationalism, or nationalism, religion or nationalism did not develop effective geographical Ika Yangal) State of the concept of archipelago of Indonesia, which can accommodate the world's dependence.

But even in this case is a very difficult kind of nationalism, if you build the social system, legal system and the system of government was tainted by the corrupt culture that can not be avoided. In the political system or structure of the New Order power has allowed the proliferation of massive corruption in all areas.

Corruption is "rooted" caused serious injury to the lower layers of the cultural behavior of people who see corruption as part of the social system, politics, economics, law and government. Even at the beginning of the elimination of corruption Act Act No. 31, 1999 Jo. No. 20 of 2001 Act that the tax has not been confirmed that "due to the corruption that took place during the financial loss that the State or the country's economy, growth, and even menghabat sustainability of national development, which requires a high efficiency. " Corruption is not only financial ruin and the country's economy, but to destroy all sectors of the community, nation and a sovereign state.

Welcoming the oath of October 28, 2010, this young, we need new schools or schools of nationalism is the nationalism-II, where the new nationalism is totally oriented to:

1). schools of national unity, because there can be unity if people are not able to become a different person for someone else or can not resolve the dispute;

2). The foundation of the attitude of how corruption should be eradicated completely opposed to national development in all sectors, and

3). The basis for the conduct of every citizen of Indonesia on the need to maintain the integrity of the state and nation including Indonesia archipelago, understanding as a whole is part of: ideology, economic, political, social, cultural, defense religious, and national security.

Nationalism will never be owned by a corrupt, because the road is a parasite in the countries of people life miserable and destroy the country from bankruptcy. From the beginning we both know that the main causes of corruption are:

1) The description of "stimulus" is due to a lack of faith and piety which is owned by officers and others involved in the finances of the State concerned;

2) There is an element of "luck" because the weak element of "control" in the management of public finance management;

We can not decide if corruption is not stimulated and there is no possibility for him. The obsession with corruption is undoubtedly due to:

A. lifestyle that is happy to show;
2. Feeling much money people are grateful;
3. To fund energy research;
4. For the already high cost of social prestige;
5. For venture capital as an annuity;
6. Forced to cover basic emergency needs such as school fees, medical expenses the family is sick;
7.Dll.

Indonesian society, covering the market economy and neo-liberalism can not prevent the spread of luxurious lifestyle that requires a high cost, while the purchasing power and income is low, then you can not avoid the encouragement of corruption, Iman and Taqwa, especially the majority of our society is very doubtful. Now would be eradicated from which O petinggi2 elites of the political elite and the government of this country ...?

Objectives of the program against the grant of the State

One of the "effects of the situation in Indonesia in the (internal)" contained in the opening paragraph-IV, 1945 Constitution, which says:. Paragraph "promote the general welfare .. While connected with the provisions of Article 33 (2) and (3) of the Constitution of 1945 confirms the dominance of natural resources (SDA) in Indonesia by the state monopoly is clearly a form of State / Government of the natural resources that exist in Indonesia.

Therefore, on this basis the "subsidy" for the basic needs of the population is clearly a logical consequence of the monopoly of natural resources is the state. If subsidies to basic needs of people, without exception, abolished / waiver, then it is a betrayal of our country's goal of "promoting the general welfare."

All questions, whether people should be granted and rely on government subsidies?

This question, of course, people should not depend on government subsidies, but regardless of the ideals that "subsidy" from the government for any reason should not be written off / waiver, because as mentioned above is a consequence the state monopoly in the SDA.

Can you imagine if people had the right from the beginning of the independence of Indonesia to the authority or control over the management of natural resources since the days of the old order (Orla), the New Order period (New Order) to now, people had enough time to take advantage of the opportunity to develop natural resources in the business community and destiny did not collapse, as now, people suffering from absolute poverty tend to be poor.

Countries for other purposes listed in the opening 1945 of Aline IV is "the intellectual life of the nation" is a form of government responsibilities in the improvement of human resources (HR), so that people can improve their welfare, which in time will not necessarily depend on the contributions made by the government, even if the subsidy should still be given, but people certainly do not oppose the grant is set more demanding.

In the era of globalization, which emphasizes the life of a market economy in which growth is on the left and the economic welfare of the people completely free market mechanism, the situation is clearly the country / people of Indonesia were not willing to follow, because in addition to the SDA in Indonesia and was largely controlled by kavitalis (investors) and most of the industries that dominate the lives of people is controlled by foreigners, making it harder for the government to restore the position of current direction, as defined in Article 33, paragraph (2) which states that "the industries is important for control of the country and the welfare of the majority state-controlled ".

And for the scholarship program for the basic needs of the population, including fuel supplied to the affected people are always, as government revenues, in addition to relying on market economics associated with the types of taxes and taxes imposed directly by the people and companies also benefit from the life, whose number can not be said to be more important because the state sector are few, and is due to the large companies in Indonesia are in their mostly owned by foreign companies or foreign investors.

In conclusion, the subsidy will always be disturbed people and government policies that are always trying to reduce and eliminate subsidies clearly contrary to the purposes of the State mentioned in paragraph IV of the Constitution of 1945.

Corruption vs nationalism

Nationalism is an ideology or doctrine, which creates and maintains the sovereignty of a country to the notion of identity for a group of people to realize that language and culture of a connecting element in social interaction. Ties led to the conscience of the community nationalism / Indonesian people in the treatment of disruptive external environment.

In the history of Indonesia, in particular, nationalism is still very critical of its existence, first as a unifying ideology to fight against the Dutch or Japanese, or the struggle against the hegemony of neo-kolonilalisme. First, if people in this archipelago is scattered, there is no unifying ideology, and of course, the Dutch easily overwhelm us. This is probably the people of the archipelago are fighting each other. Furthermore, when the Dutch policy would cause hostility and attract ongoing conflicts. Second, therefore, if the people of the archipelago was able to release at least nationalism as an ideological discourse in the spirit of independence from Indonesia to call. This type of nationalism, although sometimes misunderstood, why keep the trend of Indonesian nationalism hostile to other countries. However, the increase, as the new nation was trying to stay compact conflicts as the unity of Indonesia, a threat can be addressed on behalf of Indonesian nationalism. Most third parties of nationalism can not be used to verify the identity of Indonesia, nature, making Indonesia the world. However, what is recorded with the world of Indonesian nationalism. Probably not much. At that time, regardless of the construction of Orientalism, people are more familiar with Indonesia as a nation are very friendly countries, developing countries and the poor have a language of Indonesia unit, which is more than 600 local languages ​​and have even to this day. Well, in our country, Indonesia has a number of understanding the concept of nationalism in the islands are included in one unit: the ideology, political and economic, social, cultural, religious, national security and defense).

Therefore, every citizen of Indonesia, in particular when he was appointed as a leader in the power structure that has the archipelago, where the issue should be an absolute obligation to help preserve the territorial integrity of Indonesia from Sabang to Merauke, as described in the design of IPOLEKSOSBUDAGHANKAMNAS to have. Now this from the comments of the experts can not be denied, our sense of nationalism is very thin, even at the risk of extinction. Association primordialism emerged, focused on tribal ties, regional groups, religious and / or between.

History has shown over the past 30 years, Indonesia has taken a model of authoritarian rule, popularly called the New Order regime. Consequently, many problems of resentment and discontent beneath the surface turbulence. The most important thing was the death of democracy, corruption menjamurkan, the absence of a personal right, and so on. Given the state of the table, the risk of breaking into a bomb. Many people try to religion or ethnicity to mobilize, or even brought the world such as democracy and the discourse of universal justice to resist consolidation. With a hasty and careless, the total resistance to the regime by force, overt or covert. We know that in that time the army was terrifying. The military spirit of Indonesian nationalism. However, the most effective strategy to overcome resistance to the use of the New Order government to combat nationalism, control and eliminate the disappointments that occur in local-local to be broken. Offers Indonesian nationalism ethnic nationalism, or nationalism, nationalism, religion or geographical become a potential power that destroys the State Government to hold.

In this case, nationalism should be constructed so that it focuses on how diversity (national unity) persist in the state of the Indonesian archipelago intuition that the needs of global dependence. But it's still very difficult form of nationalism was built as a social system, legal system and government system has been infected by the corrupt culture that can not be avoided. In the political system or structure of the New Order power has allowed the proliferation of massive corruption in all areas. Corruption is "anchored" to do serious damage to the lower layers of the cultural behavior of people who see corruption as part of the social system, politics, economics, law and government. Even in the early legislation to eliminate corruption Law No. 31 of 1999 Jo. Act No. 20 of 2001 that the review states that "because of the corruption that took place during the financial loss that the State or the country's economy, growth, and even the sustainability of development menghabat National requires a highly effective . "Corruption is not only financial ruin and the country's economy, but to destroy all sectors of the community, nation and a sovereign state.

Welcomes the inauguration of October 28, 2011, this young, we need new schools or schools of nationalism is the nationalism-II, where the new nationalism is all about: a). schools of national unity, because there can be unity as a people we can hire another person to another person, or are able to postpone, 2) to be solved. The creation of the institution and corruption to be eradicated completely, in contrast to national development in all sectors, and 3). The creation of the behavior of every citizen of Indonesia on the need to maintain the integrity of the state and the nation of Indonesia, which provides information to understand the whole archipelago is part of: ideology, economic, national defense, politics, social, cultural, religious, and security. Hope ..!

Therefore, the candidates agreed to debate

Parliament plenary session in the House, Monday, July 7, 2003 presidential election has finally passed the bill on the presidential election. Bangyak the rate law was born as a result of political negotiations between the different interests of the party elite, each of which a breach in the terms proposed in the bill to the presidential election.

Escape Mensikapi bill showed that the impetus for some of the political class to prevent the escape of the bill, so we can say that half of the campaign for their own ideas and saying his dramatize "The issue returned to the village because people are smart enough to elect the president directly, for example Pilkades Pilkades about it. " The observations may have a point. People who already have experience with the consent of the head. (Pilkades) in his town and people who already have experience of watching the proceedings of the village chief as a candidate for Pilkades, including:

1). People visit from someone (jurkam) of one of the participants are invited to vote for someone with a picture of the monetary and price appreciation, 2). When approached again by someone other than the other participants also requested that I wanted someone with a monetary reward program mecoblos picture is even greater, 3). People are experience, just pragmatic in the middle of the difficult task they face, which should take precedence over how to preserve the life or the preservation of civilized values.;

Although the light of the development experience for this Pilkades people can not worry about this country to lead, why is it important for people who have committed leaders can thrive. Speaking of the accused, the legal nomenclature must be evaluated independently of the glass eyes of the law. People do not feel encouraged to evaluate and draw conclusions or take a stand against. Throughout the story that give more Pitung Betawi Iago as "Maling Budiman," or that their Rhobin Hoot Indonesia, where people's actions can be justified by the Company or wealthy merchants traders steal the point, disappointments and betrayal, because rampokannya always distributed among the poor who suffer. Speaking of "suspicious" because we all have the potential to "suspect" because the moral and highly questionable kometmen in the life of the nation. Perhaps many of us to believe that errors can be considered an act of unlawful conduct, even a criminal, but have not been arrested and interviewed people, we are still alive. The words of the accused "not be used as an aid for defamation (Character assassination) if the words of the accused, not being socialized in the capital of allergy should be addressed to the execution of cynicism. Nelson Mandela in South Africa , ex-offenders would be president of South Africa, although it is a former president, Nelson Mandela is still revered by most South Africans. In our country, if the rule applies to the position of sportsmanship that the defendant has been executed can not say he was guilty so involuntarily in the direction of self-punishing attitude of suspicion.

Presumtion principle of innocence (the presumption of innocence) in accordance with Article 8 of Law No.14/1970 on the main provisions of the Court, namely: "all the suspects, arrested, detained, prosecuted and / or appear before the judge, the presumption of innocence wajiab in the decision of the court pleaded guilty and have the force of the permanent mission. "And under Article 18, paragraph (1) Human Genome Law No.39/1999 Mamusia Rights (HAM) is: "All arrested, detained and prosecuted for alleged crimes done something right to be presumed innocent until he is legally guilty by a court with all the guarantees necessary for his defense in accordance with the law. "Based on this determination, the people must be taught to adults are not guilty of a" suspect ", much less asked for a punitive attitude toward the" suspicious "to be determined by turning the rights of suspects are still there.

Politicians and political elite must understand the law, menimal understand about the rights of the accused and not a commodity "suspects" political, not trying to popularity, the destruction of others (political opponents). Departure from the principle of the right to presumption of innocence, but also under Article 8 of Law No.14/1970 and Article 18, paragraph (1) Law No.39/1999, May is justified by the law "suspect" presidential candidate, a candidate for the structure of government or head of a candidate in higher education institutions of other countries in the Republic. If the country continues to apply the rule of law must respect the legal rights of a person as a whole and complete.

We complained to the legality

The legal expert Prof. Sociology Satjipto Raharjo, in his book "The other side of the law in Indonesia, Compass Publishing, 2003," implying that, in the sense of innocence, even if the trial faction Judex (PN and PT) pleaded guilty, is a bad precedent for the creation of the legal culture in this country. "Critical view of the legal sociologist kmenjadi worth reflecting on the whole, it is a profound message about our own need mentradisikan culture in this country, as it contains the law is not possible without an overall culture of a just law can be performed.

Legal culture is closely related to the law and knowledge of the law within the community. In the legal culture is a tradition that can be seen every day in public behavior that is consistent and reflects the will of the laws or guidelines set apply to all subjects of law in the life of the nation and state. In the legal culture of society can also be seen if our society is in serious legal conscience, the law has applied a rule of common life and the basis for any problems resulting from the risk of living together to solve. However, looking at the material, is difficult to develop a culture of right to build there.

Real awareness of the law alone is not enough to build the legal culture in this country, because the legal conscience of the community is always an abstraction, not really a form of behavior, even if our society is indeed instinctively or rationally recognizes the need for obedience and respect for the law. Therefore, although we are aware of the laws of the country, our society is not necessarily in accordance with the law. Obey the law may be important in building the legal culture in this country, and if it is indeed legal requirements?.

Authors should keep in mind that law enforcement is essentially a community or an organization whose loyalty was loyalty to the law is reflected in the shape of a real law-abiding behavior. Against the tide in a lawless society, because society is confronted with two cases in which the fidelity between conflicting loyalties to loyalty to another. So people are faced with fidelity to the law or comply with the "personal interests" that conflict with the law, such as trafficking, corruption, acts of anarchism, and so on. Besides, people dare not be law abiding interest in people, because the law is no longer the authority in law for their personal interests are no longer good law. So in this case, loyalty to their own interest, at the foot of a human being or decline, because our society does not comply with the law.

If the duty of loyalty can not be invoked to enforce the new law, the state or the government will not build and public fear as a factor that makes people obey the law. If we have always made the country the law, any person subject to the law. The law can not be applied in a discriminatory manner, not on the side of everything and everyone, except for truth and justice itself. Here is the righteousness of the law. But if justice is discriminatory, may be invoked as a means of fighting for justice and right, then it should not be blamed if people fight for their rights through the law of the jungle or physical violence. Therefore, the legal authority to enforce the law, so that people can be in the form of obedience to the law itself. Therefore, the need to build a culture of law is a matter of principle in the law, the law must be able to change society for the better, more organized you can rely on the defense of rights and justice, more able to create a sense of security. I wish ..!.
