BOGOR – INSURE researcher, Inggar Saputra said that to counteract radicalism is actually enough through Pancasila as a view and guide to life in society.
Then, the Republic of Indonesia also has Unity in Diversity. Where people want different understandings, ethnicity is not a problem. Because it is diverse.
“However, when it has touched the realm of anti-Pancasila, intolerance will face law enforcement,” Inggar said in a discussion with the theme ‘Preventing the Dangers of Radicalism in the World of Education through Nationalist Insights’, at the Modern Islamic Boarding School Ummul Quro, Bogor, Wednesday (26/02) / 2020).
Therefore, the word Inggar, radicalism is not suitable to be applied in Indonesia as in the 1945 Constitution starting from the first article to the last article, it has already been described what Indonesian people are like.
In Article 29 paragraph 1, it is clear that every citizen is free to embrace and practice his religion.
“For radicalism, it is clear that the state alone gives freedom to choose religion, why do you teach violence in conveying religion,” he explained.
Still according to Inggar, with Pancasila, Unity in Diversity and the 1945 Constitution. So it is clear that the Unitary Republic of Indonesia is final so for anyone who still questions and disputes it should return to the four pillars of the country.
“For those who have been exposed to radicalism, let us both invite to return to the right path and love the Indonesian people,” he said.
In line with Ahmad Saoqillah, academics graduated from the postgraduate program at UI National Endurance appealed for the younger generation to practice the values of Pancasila in their respective environments. Thus it will avoid the danger of radicalism.
