The Indonesian nation got an immunity disease due to democracy deviated from the expected meaning in the reform era. This was conveyed by the Chairman of the Constitutional Court Moh. Mahfud MD when it received the visit of the Indonesian Youth National Committee (KNPI), Thursday (12 / 5), in the Delegation of the Constitutional Court Room.
"There are two agendas are discussed, namely matching views on the national question at hand. One of them regarding the issue of democracy that seems to have deviated from the reform era. From my view, democracy goes beyond nomokrasi, and then our nation began an immune disease, "said Aziz Shamsuddin who was accompanied Mahfud from KNPI along with Secretary-General MK Janedjri M. Gaffar.
According to Mahfud, immune disease in question is immune from the pain of disease dangerous to the diseases that threaten democracy and the integrity of the unitary state of Indonesia. "Our country began to be immune to the pain that really hurts. So, our nation suffered illness as though mediocre. For example, immunity that is dangerous, we do not feel shocked by a huge corruption. We were like exhausted shock. Yesterday there was any news about corruption, not yet exhausted the next day that yesterday, appears more news of new corruption. So at this present moment, a sense of surprise is gone. Not only corruption, disease threats to the integrity of the Unitary Republic of Indonesia so that all the news is painful become so common. It's dangerous for the life of the nation, "he explained.
Therefore, further Mahfud, the meeting felt KNPI Indonesia will not last long with such conditions. "KNPI is to pessimistic thinking lest Indonesia was not until 100 years if the country is set to play. Corruption is considered the norm. People who have an indication of corruption are being protected from criminals by criminals in the name of human rights and legal procedures. If left in place is dangerous. We do think Indonesia will last until thousands of years, "he explained.
Mahfud worry if just reaching the age of 66 years, Indonesia has immunity to diseases that weaken democracy and threaten the integrity of the Unitary Republic of Indonesia, then Indonesia will not last long. "If just 66 years has been immune from the pain of the diseases, it will be like a malignant cancer. At first do not feel sick, after a long time to be severe and raged. Later, it will finish life. For me, the disease of democracy today is because it is not offset by nomokrasi by the rule of law. Popular sovereignty is not matched by the rule of law so there are problems with immunity against diseases. Because of this thought, the Court states supporting the activities organized by KNPI, "he said. (Lulu Anjarsari / mh)
