A nation that will never satisfy

Every country has their own issues going on from time to time. However, Indonesia seems have this endless issue in changing president. No matter who is elected, there will always people who protest. It has been going on for the past 12 years.

The reason: Not doing a good job.

Good and bad is relative, but this time, some are just being unrealistic.

They complain the current president and vice-president, SBY and Boediono, are not able to prove themselves in the past 3 months.

Wake up!!!!

3 months to bring in changes to a nation with 200 over million population in it? Citizen, like YOU and myself, are also responsible for this. Think! Put yourselve in their shoes. Let's do a role play. Try to change a habit, a principle of life that you believe in, for decades, see how much of changes you can feel for you yourself, in months time.

If you feel this is hard, then what the government feeling is 200 millions time harder than what you feel!

If you feel this is easy for you, Good! Still, you are taking care of your own self, One person. Difference with government? Government needs to take care of you, your family, your neighbor, and your other fellow Indonesians.

We all should admit that Indonesia is definitely getting better for the past five years. Slightly better, and give more time, be one, and we still can be better.

Government is not a magician, who can change things in a blink of eyes, a day, a month, a year. Everything takes time! Just cooperate a little, then be considerate a little, and contribute a little, things will start to change, a little and a little. We might not be able to feel it too much, but in the future, our children, our grand children, our grand grand children, will be able to enjoy a safer, a better country to live in.

Maybe, you are protesting, giving the tension, and hope government can push to the limit, and bring changes in faster way (physcological?). If this is what you are trying to do, I just hope you are right.

I myself also want Indonesia to be a better place, so that one day, I can go back and be together with people I love, and not wondering around, because our own land is lacking where the fact we are in the land of abundance.

I cannot contribute too much now. I can only improve myself, improving an Indonesian citizen. You improve yourself, we are improving two Indonesian citizens, and it goes on. Isn't this good?

I am proud to be an Indonesian!
