"Indonesian Parliament rejects DCA" repeat

meds has left a new comment on your post "Indonesian Parliament rejects DCA": We must reject this unfair agreement. singapore, house of corruptor, feen form bastad money. we reject. unfair DCA sumedi, indonesian I received this post in the thread posted some time in May, deep inside the file. Many of you may not have read this reply so I decided to post it here. Hi Sumedi, welcome to the blog. I can appreciate your point. From the Indonesian perspective, they must see real benefits to go along with the DCA. And if they can't, then they should object to it or speak against it. It is the right of every citizen to talk and express their views on issues concerning their country. Otherwise the country will be run without the consent of the people. As citizens, I must say that we do not know the details of the agreements. I believe that the govt representatives of both sides are intelligent people who negotiated the agreements based on the best interests of their respective countries. And that your ministers would not have agreed on the DCA if Indonesia is not getting a fair and justified returns for the agreements. I would not simply run down the agreement without knowing the details. You may want to find out more from your ministers. There must be enough trade off for them to agree. They must have seen enough benefits in the agreements which the public may not know. Cheers

Indonesian are really paranoid. They keep thinking that Singapore would one day invade them. It seem that they have no sense of proportion.

Singapore has at most a million conscripts. Can Singapore even invade Sumatra and hold on to it with just a million men? I think the answer is very obvious. Indonesian are paranoid, bordering on stupidity if you ask.

Indonesia is too vast, peninsula Malaysia is a better target. Singapore is more than capable of holding on to Johor and maybe, even Malacca.

these are dangerous thoughts. we are simply too small to threaten our neighbours. and that is our advantage. but the politicians of these countries will use us as a bogeyman to frighten their people to advance their private agenda.

singapore cannot afford to have a war or tension with its neighbours. we do not and cannot afford to live a life like the israelis in the middle east. a life of constant strife and military tension.

that is something that we should never trifle with. once any tension drags on for a few months and we will disintegrate.

we can only hope that we have enough strength to avoid such things from happening but not to violate our neighbours.

don't even think of it. there is no cakewalk. iraq is an excellent example. so is palestine and israel.

the blessed semites are blessed to kill each other till the end time. it is a lesson for all to learn and not to repeat.
