Seeking The Middle Way of Indonesia's Democracy by Kelvin Alfayed
At that time philosopher tried to explain the definition of democracy and reach the great system to the government in Ancient Greek. Universal human being always declares justice and goodness remain very high value and considered, but it requires more energy rather than being injustice individual, That most of the integrity only has little benefits for the actor who got a chance to execute the power. And the system they created refers to the reality of that. Which fundamentally, a human being will exercise with reliability if there had responsibility within a great system.
During the development of creating the best form and norm for nations to be adopted. Unlike the others form, democracy fetches to less violence in internal of state during the process administration. Because democracy based on freedom, every individual regardless of race, religious belief or gender has the same political rights as each other. A state ruled on limits, and law is supporting the people whose living in the secure and protected situation.
Currently, approximately more than half of states in the world adapted the democracy system. Other nations have rules assigned by heredity and using force to take leader within in state. Democratic states put laws into place to protect their citizens and to ensure a safe and fair society. Everyone and government ought to obey the same law.
Democracy has gone too far "kebablasan" according to Jokowi’s statement, which creating the articulation of extreme politic such as liberalism, radicalism, fundamentalism, terrorism. Whereas in Indonesia, Pancasila as a way if life and ideology of state to implement every administration for the nation. In some cases, that weren’t followed by foundation firm or court. If it’s not following by rule democracy will become anarchy. Further, Law without democracy is the unpredictability of the authorities. Democracy would be wonderful if the law reinforced, either on political opponents or opposition. If law enforcement is only one-sided, it will have created the injustice within the society.
Indonesia Government has picture into terrible criticism currently during Pilkada. Whichever, the citizen occurs steadily challenge with two different perspectives since Pre-Independent of Indonesia in the beginning 1900. Few Muslim in Indonesia firmly believe the state should be base on religion, and because the majority of Indonesian are Muslim, then their egocentric brings away to formulated based on sharia law. Nevertheless, partly from Nationalist Muslim powerfully be solicitous to make this state basis on Bhineka Tunggal Ika and Pancasila.
In the process to engage the power and receiving sympathize from people is much easier for every single candidate to preservation discriminates and separate some other groups, they offer a same racial reason rather than giving them the freedom of people. But, that technique primarily contradicted with the idea of Bhineka Tunggal Ika. In my view, there is a relationship between Bhineka Tunggal Ika with the doctrine of Liberalism. Specifically, they have the same spirit to complement the value of various cultures and also appreciate diversity not simply for own sake but for its enhancement of the quality of life and learning.
One of the characteristics of globalization, it cannot be separated from the effect of easy access for migration from one state to another state, because it is necessary for the economy activities to find other opportunities other natural resources and get more labor. All of that are have been regulated from Universal Declaration of Human Rights supporting the ideas of protecting individual rights. Without indiscriminately, all human beings have to enjoy the freedom of speech, belief, and freedom without fear because people want to be treated equally. That’s the highest value must be respected by the others.
Furthermore, Multicultural brings society to the various of many kinds of differences type race, religion, and background into the one area or more. In the case of being limited or suppressed certain groups in Indonesia and disrespecting cultures aren’t the value of multiculturalism in all aspect, including education and politics. I realized some point among the various cultures in Indonesia is not all being respected. I take the few examples, in the view of the interpretation of holy book’s verse toward selecting the candidate in "Pilkada" there is abusing a religion as a tool to discriminate the other racial and other religion. It causes because Ahok is Christian nor Chinese. If our minds thought, only make justification suppressed certain groups statements according to free speech. We have to perceive the differences tolerating and respecting differences. Toleration becomes very wild view, and it would be discriminating because it’s gone too far. It’s accepted very well were not agree with another point, nor we have to comprehend and contemplate the value so we can achieve the mutual understanding. In the end, we can protect the diversity and respect the symbol/motto Bhineka Tunggal Ika for Indonesia.
