You are YOUR OWN VOICE ON SOCIAL MEDIA. You don't need an opposition in parliament to speak for you.

Hi folks, we do not live in a little bubble world of our own. 

We have neighbours, big neighbours who have felt at various times that our economic progress has been at their expense. 

The world is watching us to see if we will stand united or falter, just like they watched us 50 years ago. 

The Jakarta Globe reported that the Indonesian Government is set to take back control of the air space above the Riau Islands from Singapore. 

President Joko Widodo has instructed his Transport Minister Ignasius Jonan to make preparation for equipment and personnel over the next three or four years so that they can take over the management of that airspace.

Yet there are opposition parties, like SDP asking for a big cut in defence spending, and for NS training to be shortened. In a conflict, sending inadequately trained men into battle is as good as sending them to the jaws of death and that is extremely irresponsible. 

We need ministers who can be global leaders skilled in adroit diplomacy who will speak for us on the global stage. 

We don't need an alternative voice in parliament because social media has given us that space to be our own voice. But we do need a strong voice on the global stage. 

Let your good sense and rational self prevail and vote wisely.

Communication with the government is established online through social media like facebook.
YOU are YOUR OWN VOICE ON SOCIAL MEDIA. You are intelligent enough to speak for yourself. 

What you need in parliament are doers and not talkers.

Ask yourself who you can entrust your future because you are voting for doers and not talkers.
