I am in my bedroom, surfing in the internet now when I hear the news over the TV about the demonstration to dethrone Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono from his palacy( I make up this word on my own for I hardly find the correct one, hehehehehehe...)chair of Indonesia's number one, the president.
I remember the same thing happening in around 1997 or 1998, when I was still in the Junior High School, when nearly the same thing occured. This was the effort of Indonesian who were sick of Soeharto's dictatorship. Remembering this, I question myself whether the same
thing will also happen onto Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.
The demonstration, concerning this, I sometimes(most of the times actually) question whether those demonstrators know what they are actually doing. I'm

The demonstration, concerning this, I sometimes(most of the times actually) question whether those demonstrators know what they are actually doing. I'm
just afraid if, may be, they're just joining something they don't actually really know what that is. Perhaps, they're just following what others do for some money(because there are people who are doing this because they are paid). Is this really an exertion to reach a betterment? or what?? For those scholars, do they also know what they are fighting for? Or is this just a mean for them to be considerd as a brave young figure, speak infront of many people as if they are the power holder. Or may be they just want their name to be written I in the media or part Indonesia's history? I am a bit affraid if they are only being used or rode by some politiciants who want to grasp the power in order to be the next number one in Indonesia.
I, myself, don't really understand about politics, what I know about it is that they stab each other for power(I hope that it is a wrong view).Power, seems to be a carcass fought by a flock of condors.
As a person who knows not much about politics, I just can't understand with the way the demonstrators think. This is what I mean, as an analogy, even to manage your own family, it's not a simple think to do, isn't it? Yes, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and his colleague, Indonesia's number two, vice president Boediono did give promise of 100 days governmental management after their oath. But can't we, at least me, just try to understand how sophisticated it is to get this archipelago, Indonesia to be a well organized and wealth country. To be honest, I'm not writing this because I'm behind Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono's side. But merely share you, guys, that what he has done is quite fabulous despite what's happening(I don't really know whether he is really bad during his throne times, do you??)
Most people's thought also concerns me. They are expecting things to be instantly achieved. Guys, it's not noodle that you can eat three minutes after opening the pack. It is about managing around 13.000 islands named as one Indonesia. When one can't give them instant result they demand him to be dethroned, are you trying to cook an instant noodle named Indonesia? you are dreaming too much, Mates.
For me, I just come up with an opinion that indeed we should all work together hand in hand to bring this rich country into a better place. Good deeds is always good, isn't it? When we are all able to manage our own selves well, I believe betterment will be easier to achieve. It doen't mean that I'm a supporter of Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono for I'm writing this article, again I state. Simply, I just want to open your mind, readers(if there are any), that we must not make the situation worse by doing such violence or riots to roll the ruling power which we don't really know what this is for.
What's still in my mind is, will Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and his regime demise as what happened to Soeharto? Well, you all decide about it.
