Indonesia Is a Powerful Country!
// November 19th, 2008 // news, personal
I am so proud to be Indonesian! I always thought that we’ve always behind in everything but NOT lately! So, western countries especially the almighty America better watch out!
Remember when not so funny movie, Fitna were all over websites and making news all over the world? Well, somehow my country able to FORCE the biggest video uploading and sharing website, YouTube to take the video out or… No more YouTube in Indonesia.
First, I thought there is no way YouTube would be afraid of this threat, but I WAS wrong because after Indonesian goverment blocked the site, YouTube finally gave up and deleted the video. Bravo, my goverment!
And now, after YouTube, WordPress also done the same. After a very offensive cartoon were published on one of it’s blogger’s site. Indonesian government reacts and… bam! The website is gone! I didn’t even get a chance to view it.
Apparently, now if you find something that offense you while you browse, read, watching TV or whatever just asked your beloved Government to do what they do best; censoring, threatening, blocking, or whatever you like to call it and hey they’ll do that for you! Especially if you have the same “vision” as them and usually just agree with what they want or believe. In other hand, what has been decided by majority are usually the best ways and no one SHOULD be questioning it. So, I bet you’ll be happy to live under the rule of this amazing government.
So If you see something on TV that offend your pure little heart, you don’t even need to change the channel or simply turn it off, they WILL do that for you. If it’s on internet, don’t waste time to go to other website, again you DON’T have to! Because our kind government will DO anything so you don’t have to see things that might offends your heart and turns you into a big fan of anything that against them.
So, if you think you part of somewhat called minority, or an inspiring artist, poet, or just some small and random people who likes a little of freedom of speech and believe it’s part of the human rights. Too bad and I felt sorry for you!
While I am in this topic you might wanted to take a peek to this Indonesian latest law. It’s pretty hilarious (so at least one positive point comes from that), but it just show that Indonesia is more powerful than ever. I mean, how come a very funny law like that can be passed?
It seemed that somehow no matter how people think of how ignorance the Indonesian government is STILL they ARE SO DAMN STRONG…. HAHAHA! Even stronger THAN America and other western country (who believed by many are the strongest among others). I bet they government WON’T be able to come up with such thing and be STRONG as MY government.
Finally, just don’t try to mess with Indonesia! Merdeka!





I seriously don’t know what to comment with this particular post. Are you being ironic or truthful?
I smell sarcasm in your post, haha, like it though.
Haha, brilliant, my head was spinning when I started reading this! I thought you’d gone mad!
Just didn’t expect such biting sarcasm…
I am being truthful about how I think that Indonesian Government has becomes stronger than ever, that they even have the power to pass the most ridiculous law ever.
The rest… Just me being sarcasm, because I am started getting tired of being angry all the time to all the madness created by my BELOVED government, so I guess Antimatter is right that I AM possibly getting mad, and now instead of being outrageous, I just started laughing… not WITH the government, but AT the government.
Usually what happened in Indonesia makes me outrageous but it started to become ridiculous
