THE INDONESIAN CHINESE ARE THE VICTIMS, THE INDONESIAN PRIBUMIS ARE THE PERPETRATORS. Sumber: anonymous@anonymous.com.
If you have watched TV, read newspapers, or turned on the radio this past
several days, you may hear of the riots in Indonesia. News media are telling us
the Indonesian Pribumis (Malay) people are rising up against the Suharto
dictatorship. We are told that the Indonesia poor Malay suffered a lot under
Suharto's corrupted regime, and they wanted change. The Indonesia Pribumis
(Malay) comprises over 80% of the total population. Most of them are Muslims.
The Indonesian ethnic Chinese minority are mostly Buddhist or Christian.
The news media portrayed the Indonesian Malay as honest, decent, peace loving
people who rioted because they were hungry, they were poor, and they were
victimized by Suharto, and his filthy-rich Indonesian Chinese allies.
Aren't you curious that almost all reports about the Indonesian rioters
savagely attacking businesses owned by the Indonesian ethnic Chinese minority
come with the DISCLAIMER-like pseudo-economic news attachment that
reminds us of the disproportion wealth gap between the Chinese and
the Malay in Indonesia ?.
A disclaimer-like news attachment usually looks like this: The Indonesian
ethnic Chinese minority only comprises less than 4% of the Indonesian
population, but they controlled more than (70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, take your
pick) of the entire Indonesian economy.
Could it be possible that 4% of the population controlling over 90% of the
economy ?. Suharto and his family are reported to have accumulated up to 40
BILLION USD in wealth.
Here are several recent world events, as reported to us by the same
International Media:
In Bosnia, when the MAJORITY Serbs and/or the Croats attacked and
massacre the Bosnia Muslims, the International Media told us it was
religious-based.
Today, many Indonesian ethnic Chinese are still living in wooden shacks
because they can NOT afford brick houses. Many of the poor Indonesian Chinese
worked very hard but they still find it extremely difficult to make enough money
to feed and house their family.
Most of the really wealthy Indonesian Chinese already LEFT Indonesia. Those
stayed behind in Indonesia are the poor Chinese who don't have the economic
means to escape. And they are whose businesses are being LOOTED, whose
merchandizes are being PLUNDERED, whose buildings are being TORCHED, whose
women are being RAPED, and whose children are being BRUTALLY
SLAUGHTERED.
They are the ones made homeless by the Pribumis savagery attacks, they are
made even poorer for having their small business totally destroyed by the
rioters and looters.
They lost not only their businesses, they lost their home, and they lost many
of their family members who were killed by the Indonesian Malay rioters. Or even
their daughters and wives had been raped by the rioters and looters.
Do you know the story of the innocent THREE-YEAR-OLD Chinese GIRL who was
BRUTALLY BUTCHERED by the Indonesian Malay rioters when they broke into her
parent's house, in Tanjong Pinang, Sumatra Island, Indonesia ?.
Has AP, UPI, or Reuters distributed this story ?.
Was it because her family is definitely NOT RICH, which may
jeopardized the Indonesian Chinese=FILTHY-RICH image painted by so
many journalists reporting from Indonesia, for the World Media ?.
Was it because her INNOCENCE may proved to us that Indonesian Chinese
are flesh-and-blood human beings, much like the rest of the humanities, which
again, may smash the Indonesian Chinese=NON-HUMAN image many members of
the World Press would like to plant deep into our minds ?.
THE INDONESIAN CHINESE ARE THE VICTIMS, THE INDONESIAN PRIBUMIS ARE THE PERPETRATORS.
But yet, every time a news story of Chinese houses being burned, the same
news story also told us how WEALTHY those Chinese are.
How many time have you ever read a news report which linked the economic
status of a mug victim, to the crime (of mugging) itself ?.
THIS LAW ONLY APPLIES TO THE ETHNIC CHINESE.
A person with Italian ancestry applying for an Indonesian citizenship is
allowed to keep his Italian name. A person born in Indonesia by a Mexican
parentage is allowed to carry a Mexican name on his Indonesian citizenship form.
A Russian is allowed to keep his Russian name as well. ONLY the Chinese
are prohibited from having a Chinese name. The law specifically discriminates
against the ethnic Chinese.
Indonesian Chinese are NOT allowed to learn the Chinese language. In Indonesia,
a couple of from Nigeria can teach their children the Nigerian language. Anyone
interested in learning French can enrolled into French courses offered in several
Indonesian colleges and universities. But if a Chinese is caught learning the Chinese
language in Indonesia, [s]he may be thrown into jail for breaking the anti-Chinese law.
A person caught TEACHING Chinese language in Indonesia may face the
DEATH penalty if he is charged under the subversive act. In Indonesia, ONLY
the Chinese-language is forbidden. Indonesian Chinese are not allowed to celebrate the
Chinese New Year. In Indonesia, Muslim's holy days such as Ramadan are celebrated.
In Indonesia, Christian's holy days like Christmas and Easter are celebrated.
But in Indonesia, the Indonesian Chinese are prohibited from celebrating their
Chinese New Year.
In Indonesia, the Chinese are not allowed to work for the government. Persons from
Brazilian or German heritage are not barred from working in the Indonesian government.
But a ethnic Chinese who was born in Indonesia is not allowed to work in ANY Indonesian
government department. In Indonesia, the Chinese are discriminated.
The ethnic Chinese are not permitted to have permanent land title.
The same restriction does NOT apply to Caucasian from the United States, however.
The ethnic Chinese are prohibited from obtaining governmental scholarships.
No such restriction for people of ANY OTHER ethnic background. The Indonesian
ethnic Chinese minority is the ONLY group of people in Indonesia who are officially
PERSECUTED by the Suharto-led regime. A coup led by Suharto, back in the 1960's,
resulted in a total defeat of PKI (Partai Komunis Indonesia, or the Indonesian
Communist Party). Suharto and his army cracked down on members of the PKI,
and more than 2 MILLION people died during the purging process. Among
the dead were more than 300,000 (some estimates ran up to more than 500,000) INNOCENT
ethnic Chinese who had nothing to do with neither Suharto, nor PKI, were MURDERED.
How possible do you think a group of victims will strongly supported the
person [or regime] who stripped them the right to practice their own culture ?.
What objective[s] the World Media like to achieve by misguiding us, their
audiences ?.
In Rwanda, the Hutus massacred 500,000 Tutsis. In Indonesia, if the world do
not step in, over 7 MILLION people may be butchered.
This is the time we need as much outside pressure as we possibly can gather. |
