SBY just busy with herself

By: Yoedi Karyono

President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) two days before the big day Muslims, Hari Raya Fitri 1431 H Indul need to invite owners of print and electronic media, senior journalists and reporters working in the environmental choice of the presidency to the Presidential Palace. Yudhoyono will deliver some important points relating to the state and nation. But what the president apparently responded very poorly by the people. Why, it is considered important by the president apparently was not considered important and useful by the people. Even far from the expectations of the people.

Prof. Hamdy Moloek, an expert in mass communications from the University of Indonesia said that. The same was also delivered by Prof. Tjipta Lesmana that political communication is very bad president. SBY''do not know what to say and what is most associated with the interests of this nation. SBY might not even understand that he is the President of the Republic of Indonesia,''said Tjipta.

SBY so fast reaction, when there was criticism from an Air Force Colonel Aviation Adjie Suratmadji SBY that as a very weak leader and also a sharp critic of SBY how to deal with corruption. SBY subordinates answered criticism two days after the criticism was published in the mass media.

SBY also explained about the change of chief of police, attorney general turnover, the capital of Jakarta memidahkan plan that did not directly attributable to the interests of small people. While SBY explain all the things that are considered important, some people are struggling between life and death to return to his hometown for the purposes of friendship. Transportation system that is not humane and is very prone to accidents used by citizens, and at any time revoke the little people's lives, both on sea transport, land and air.

Pak SBY''did not discuss this matter, although all the news channels preach everything that happens on the streets. Meanwhile, the president thinks everything is running normal. Convenient transportation system that is not harmful even this did not get special attention from the president,''said Hamdy.

The development of the Indonesia-Malaysia meeting September 6 at Kinabalu, is also not considered absolutely necessary by the president, so do not be disclosed its development. In fact, people want to see what developments happen. Previously, SBY is a statement about the state of tension in relations kedia Cilangkap Headquarters, but did not fit with expectations.

Pak SBY''preoccupied with his own opinion even contrary to the opinions and desires of the community, and the most severe Yudhoyono and other officials considered to be more in favor of Malaysia and the fear in Malaysia. Such a situation is very dangerous,''said Tjipta.

Meanwhile, Dr Effendi Ghazali, other political communication experts say, is now the spokesperson for the president became an interpreter said, they did not properly communicate what they want the government to its people, but they always make a rebuttal what the existing realities in society. This situation is extremely dangerous''for the president and also for this government. Why, the presidential spokesman said it did not want to receive suggestions, criticism from the people and they feel the most correct of all that is done. Therefore, it is very fair if a survey of independent institutions to produce conclusions that the popularity of Yudhoyono declined very dramatically.''

Pain is not sensitive, do not even care SBY has been so severe, in another world precisely in the United States, or rather in Gainesville Florida event planning to commemorate the 9 / 11 with Al-Quran.Church how to burn this behavior has been known for its controversial since its inception by Pastor Terry Jones in 1981 warning that it was planning attacks of September 11, 2001 by way of burning the Al Qur’an. "The purpose of this celebration and other protests is to give people the opportunity to convert Muslims," said Father Terry Jones in the AP quotes.

This is, absolutely not responded to SBY, whereas 98 percent of Indonesia's population numbered 230 million more are Muslim, like it or not, willing or unwilling, if the combustion carried the Qur’an is true then there would be reactions among Muslims , and it is not impossible to happen in the world, and also Indonesia, of course.

Events''potentially a very large and very dangerous problem is not at all responded in an event that is considered important to invite the leaders of the mass media came to the court,''said Effendi.

Indeed the Qur'an burning plan gets a reaction from the Vatican. The Vatican strongly condemned the plan, if properly implemented, then that will happen is that an unexpected event on the combustion reaction Qur'an. Even U.S. Secretary of State Hilllary Clinton mentioned the plan of arson and if properly done, then what will happen is an unexpected reaction, and this would be very detrimental to the interests of the United States as a whole.

Among Muslims themselves there is a belief in the Holy Qur'an as the sacred book of its existence will be protected and maintained directly by Alllah SWT, but this does not mean that Muslims will stay calm if harrasment scripture by burning,''There would be reactions accordingly, we'll see. But I guess they would not dare do that. Unpredictable reaction not only to the U.S. or U.S. interests, but religion is considered to be ignored and no action to prevent burning up the Qur’an,''said Bernard Ustad Abdul Djabar.

SBY, not at all sensitive to this sort of thing, said Tjipta, he was only sensitive when it is related to himself, if writing Colonel Adjie not appear in the newspaper, I think there will never be invited to explain to the media. SBY''must abandon the habit of speech and speech that is not to the point, he must be more firmly and directly to the problem. In addition, he must quickly anticipate and have the correct prediction.

As the president SBY certainly has a lot of experts, advisers who give consideration to what is conveyed by the president in public, or the expert staff and his advisers had just become submissive who only according to what is said and desired, and just look SBY to look naive and what is presented becomes increasingly clear, even just a personal reaction from a SBY because he criticized.

Meanwhile, an expert in communications and political SBY, Daniel Sparinga who is also a political doctoral mention that what the president has been very timely. Mr. President''has been very assertive in delivering his speech, and indeed this is about style and presentation, and certainly very different from the style of President Soekarno, the President of Indonesia from the past. But we are very concerned to change the style Pak SBY, and I accept any criticism for anything better.''(www.rainbowdiplomacy.com)
