Absurdity Of The Day - Church Cannot Be Built On Street With Islamic Name

So the elected Mr. Diani Budiarto is still defying the constitutional court order to leave GKI Yasmin, Bogor alone, and now saying that churches can't be built on roads with Islamic names. This is the same guy who married a 19-year-old not too long ago, as his 4th wife.

Hey people, ARE WE SERIOUSLY STILL GOING TO PUT UP WITH THIS??

*speechless*

Thoughts On Independence Day

Just wanted to say this... I'm glad, that despite the inability of the government, the so-called representatives, and the political elite to talk and think about only themselves, national sentiment is at a high and it's cool again to love your countrynation. We have learned that we ourselves can bring the nation to new heights despite the shameful mess that is Indonesian politics and leadership.

The power, is truly with the people now, to build this nation further. We are Indonesians and we will persevere - we survived hundreds of years of occupation, we fought back invaders after our declaration of independence, and now we are fighting back for independence from corruption and the simple lackluster performance of the executive and legislative.

Merdeka!
