The life of President Soekarno and his staff is often in the spotlight. Many political policies launched by the Old Order in the 1960s were considered impartial to the people. Moreover, the Old Order government tends to defend the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI) in the September 30 Movement (G30S).
All the people and students were furious, no joke. They took to the streets to perpetuate the Tri-Corruption of the People's Claims (Tritura). This anger was expressed in ridicule chants. From the Minister of Goblok to the Peting Dog.
Indonesia's economic condition in the Soekarno and the Old Order era is not doing well. The work of the Old Order government has also received a sharp spotlight. The power of attorney continues to perpetuate the romanticism of revolution by building monuments of greatness. The affairs of the people's welfare are recent.
No one dares to perpetuate criticism. This condition made all levels of government support Soekarno's liter politics. The impact is everywhere. The welfare of the people has never been a priority. This neglectful action made the Indonesian people live in uncertainty "if you don't want to be said to live in poverty."
Indonesia is facing a dilemma. In the eyes of the Indonesian world, its own people were in trouble with the economic recession in the 1960s. Even then the G30S rebellion in 1965 came and made the anger of all Indonesian people increase.
President Soekarno is considered to have no intention of investigating the PKI, which is suspected to be the main mastermind behind the rebellion. All of this was proven by the names of PKI celebrities who still held the ranks of the Old Order government. The people and Indonesian students do not want to be silent.
They asked the government to care about the fate of the people. Instead of caring, Soekarno's ministers were actually insensitive to the condition of the Indonesian people. They continue to perpetuate a vibrant lifestyle over the suffering of the people.
"The mistake that was quite fatal in Bung Karno's leadership was the lack of attention to the welfare of the people, especially the daily needs. I want Bung Karno to once say that the people's needs are not only bread, but also spiritual needs. It is true, but he forgets, without sufficient food, the people will feel dissatisfied. Stomach matters are the primary needs of humans. There has always been an expression that the stomach can not wait.
In addition, he tends to be authoritarian in using his power. Unfortunately, the other leaders around him only became yes men. few dared to have different opinions with him, such as Bung Hatta, Sutan Sjahrir, Moh. Roem, Moh. Natsir, and Subbandio Sastrosatomo. However, they even had to step aside or be removed," explained Firman Lubis in the book Jakarta 1950-1970(2018).
The people and students are furious, not playing. Action taking to the streets is the only option to convey a narrative of dissatisfaction with the government. They then brought together ranks in one command in early January 1966. Tritura action, his name.
The action demanded that the government grant the three demands of the people. Disband the PKI, cabinet ponds, and lower prices. Tritura's demands arose because students considered the government's fault in making the Indonesian people suffer was too much.
Actions on the streets also appear everywhere. Mainly, in Jakarta. Students from various universities and various student organizations fill the streets of the capital city. They want to convey their aspirations in a polite to harsh language.
All languages are considered legitimate, given the suffering of the people that is so great. People's emotions are not restrained. Yel-yel with vulgar and harsh language was also made. Instead of praising, they actually called public officials minister in particular as Minister of Goblok and Peking Dog or Haji Peaking who referred to the closeness of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Soebandrio who is pro China.
Many students then shouted chants like the song of struggle. Technical check, there is a minister who talks. Stupid stupid block, we call the minister stupid. After that, students from the Indonesian Christian University (UKI) did not want to lose.
They carry the chant: Soebandrio Haji Peaking, Badminton. Soebandrio plintat-plintut, Badminton. The song is perpetuated sometimes by stopping the vehicle and doodleing it with words of annoyance.
These songs (yel-yel) are sung in front of the Megaria cinema (now: the Metropole Cinema) and the arrogant ministers are now undermined, their secret is revealed, their nose is shown by students and I and my friends feel the nation..
"To Nining I said that if Bandrio wins then we don't expect to have a FUture (future). Don't expect it, don't be a tall employee. We've all been blacklisted," explained class 66 student activist Soe Hok Gie in the book Catatan A Demonstrator (2015).
