Coordinator of 98 RN IHSG turmoil and weakening of the rupiah exchange rate is a coordinated destabilization attack

JAKARTA - Pemrakarasa and Coordinator of the 98 Resolution Network Hsris Rusli Moty said Indonesia is facing a war (warfare) that is launched silently and vaguely. He also assessed the turmoil of the JCI and the weakening of the rupiah exchange rate as a coordinated destabilization attack.

If you look at the hashtags or tag lines #saleIndonesia, #1998redux, #buangrupiah and #Indonesiagelap, and others. According to Haris, this is one form of "coordinated destabilization" attack for the purpose of undermining public and market confidence in President Prabowo's progressive policies.

"This coordinated destabilization campaign is to encourage currency depreciation, weakening the JCI, and triggering capital flight which is expected to reduce foreign exchange reserves. They are obsessed with recycling the 1998 reform event, triggering political turmoil through engineering economic shocks," said Hari Rusli Moti in a press statement, Thursday, June 11.

Haris explained that the 1998 recycling or redux would not happen. According to him, in 1998 the geopolitical map was still unipolar, where at that time America was the ruler or the single sun. While the current situation is already multipolar.

In the 1998 era, multilateral institutions such as the IMF, World Bank, and WTO were very powerful in dictating the policies of each country. Currently, multilateralism is being dismantled by President Donald Trump as the Washington Consensus collapses.

He said there were three axes of power that were harmed by President Prabowo's progressive policies. They are, according to Haris, behind the coordinated attacks and "destabilization" campaigns.

"According to us, the national serakahnomic oligarchy is very much harmed by President Prabowo's policies. In addition, the corporate axis and multi-national actors. Next, it is common knowledge, one of our neighboring countries, a small country that is alive and prosperous from the shelter of dirty money from the robbery of Indonesia's wealth and natural resources. This small country is definitely very harmed by President Prabowo's policies," said Haris.

"The fate of our nation since the colonial and old imperialist era has always been an object that has been fooled and fooled by small countries and greedy corporations or evil companies in the past," he continued.

Haris explained that several progressive policies of President Prabowo had harmed and destroyed the wealth of the three serkahnomic axes. Among them are the formation of Danantara, the policy of confiscating land by the PKH Task Force, the policy of controlled foreign exchange of natural resources that must be parked in the country (DHE) for one year.

Haris said, among other things, related to the formation of Danantara Indonesia Resources, food self-sufficiency that harms the import cartel, to eradicating corruption and confiscating money and assets belonging to the serakahnomic people.

"When President Prabowo formed Danantara to strengthen SOEs, they intriqued as "state capitalism". When President Prabowo secured our wealth and natural resources with the DHE policy, they intriqued it as a policy that distorted the past," continued Haris.

Haris explained that the three serakahnomic axes also intrigue the efficiency and reallocation of the state budget to equalize welfare as a non-productive policy and "waste money". In their eyes, building people's schools, providing free nutritious food to students, building fishing villages, fertilizer subsidies, as a policy of "burning the budget".

According to him, government critics and honest and independent student movement groups also need to clearly observe the current situation. He hopes that all parties are not too naive and innocent in assessing the current situation, as if the current situation is solely the result of the natural response of the market to the President's policies or solely the result of the systemic fiscal and monetary problems.

"We also recognize that the governance of a number of policies and strategic programs of President Prabowo is also not perfect. It still needs to strengthen the technical aspect. Not to mention that our officials are still not able to get out of the old mindset and habit that makes public office a tool for reaping rent," said Haris.

However, continued Haris, President Prabowo has shown his commitment to eradicating corruption and preventing the leakage of state wealth. President Prabowo conveyed strengthening the KPK, Prosecutor's Office and BPKP to hunt down corruptors.

"President Prabowo even invited the people to use the gadgets in their hands to monitor and record the naughty behavior of officials," he said.
