Different But Always Indonesian
By: Dhita Karuniawati
Indonesia is a pluralistic country, many tribes, languages, races, and religions in it. However, this is what makes Indonesia attractive. Because, this shows that Indonesia is rich in culture. In addition, with this many differences, the concept of love is needed in it. Because only through feeling of belonging and love is what creates tolerance, which is rooted in harmony.
It is from here that it is important to strengthen solidarity with the aim of going into a new chapter, for a reconciling Indonesia. Upholding the values contained in Pancasila as the main reference for maintaining the integrity of the Republic of Indonesia, and spreading it as a form of our love for the nation and its inhabitants. Until you can feel happiness in accordance with what others feel.
In the 2019 general election, it is important for all Indonesian people to always remember the above. In general elections, Indonesian people will be given a choice of candidates who have no compulsion towards that choice. Therefore, there will be differences in choices during the general election, even within the household. However, these differences do not mean becoming a trigger for the occurrence of division between nations.
Indonesia always respects diversity and prioritizes national unity. This is the same as implied in the Pancasila in principle 3, namely Indonesian Unity. To unite, differences are always set aside and prioritize common interests. Indonesia still wins whoever wins this election.
