Observers Highlight Potential for Political Provocation Ahead of Two-Year Anniversary of Prabowo's Administration
Legal and Political Observer Damai Hari Lubis has highlighted the controversy surrounding the use of a pig's head logo and the name 'Bagong Mogok' (Striking Bagong) during an event commemorating the Prophet Muhammad's Mawlid (birthday). Lubis assesses that this is not merely a mistake, but a provocation that could divide the community and disrupt national stability.
As the Coordinator of Korlabi, Lubis is making two demands of President Prabowo Subianto. First, the dismissal of Asep Guntur Rahayu from his position at the KPK (Corruption Eradication Commission). Second, a thorough legal investigation into the motives and background of the event's organizing committee.
Korlabi emphasizes the importance of a swift and firm response from the president to prevent the escalation of sensitive religious issues, which have the potential to be exploited to disrupt political stability. As of now, the KPK and the police have not provided an official response to these demands.
