JAKARTA - Army Chief of Staff (KSAD), General Dudung Abdurrachman, invites the public including the defendant, not to forget to drink coffee. He conveyed this invitation through the song 'Ayo Kita Ngopi Semua'.

In a video circulating in the community and uploaded to Berita Istana YouTube, Dudung, who appears to be wearing a green bomber jacket, seems to be dancing and singing. Behind him was a line of soldiers wearing white collared shirts.

In the song, he invites all walks of life, including the defendants, to drink coffee. Because coffee is a favorite of Indonesian people.

"The president has coffee, the governor has coffee, the sub-district head has coffee, the RT RW also has coffee", said Dudung's lyrics in the video.

"The judge has coffee, the prosecutor has coffee, the lawyer has coffee, the defendant also has coffee."

"Who is the person from where they come from, everyone likes coffee. Whatever the job, wherever the place is, let's all have coffee", said Dudung.

This video has received mixed reactions from netizens. Social media activist Permadi Arya alias Abu Janda is no exception.

Through his Instagram @permadiaktivis2, he suspects the lyrics of the song 'Terdakwa Ngopi' is meant to insinuate Bahar Bin Smith, the suspect in the alleged case of hate speech to state officials.

"The lyrics of the song are shocking Bahar Smit hit by General @dudung_abdurachman's smash", he wrote in the Instagram caption which uploaded the video clip of the song 'Ayo Kita Ngopi Semua' which was quoted on Saturday, January 8.

He appreciated Dudung's step in replying to the oblique accusations through a song. "Sweet & elegant revenge from the generals... just reply with insults through songs", he said.

Permadi then quipped Bahar bin Smith, "Have you had coffee in your cell yet, haven't you?"

"Hey weekend guys.. don't forget to have coffee", he concluded.
