JAKARTA - Secretary General (Secretary General) of the Central Board of the Interfaith Brotherhood Agency (BRANI), Ardy Susanto, emphasized his organization's commitment to always be at the forefront of maintaining the spirit of nationality in Indonesia. This effort to care for nationality is needed to prevent divisions and polarization of the community in the midst of thickening identity politics. "Building a national commitment is an important thing that cannot be ignored by this nation as the identity and identity of the Indonesian nation and state," said Ardy Susanto in Jakarta, Thursday, November 3. Previously, the General Chairperson of the National Awakening Party (PKB) Abdul Muhaimin Iskandar confirmed the BERANI Central Management in Nusantara V of the Senayan DPR RI Complex, Jakarta. BERANI is a New Autonomous Agency of the PKB DPP, which is under the leadership of Pastor Lorens Manuputty. In his direction, Muhaimin encouraged BERANI to exist into an organization that emphasizes diversity, diversity, is Indonesia's strength and wealth. "That the strong brotherhood and culture of gotong royong at the grassroots of our society, even in the midst of the existing differences, will determine Indonesia's fate and future. We must protect Indonesia's strength, no one should destroy it," he said. According to Ardy, this effort to care for nationality must be imprinted on the children of the nation. This attitude is in line with the principles of the BERANI Autonomous Body. This is important to fortify the nation's children from identity politics which is starting to be practiced in Indonesia today. "This identity politics is a threat to the future of the Republic of Indonesia. Therefore, it must be fenced off by strengthening the spirit of nationality. And BRANI is at the forefront of maintaining this spirit of nationality," he explained. Although the election will still be in the next two years, now the discussion about the election has started to warm up. For this reason, the General Chairperson of the PKB, Muhaimin Iskandar, initiated the youth to knit the spirit of nationality to avoid identity politics in the upcoming elections. "The principle of knitting nationality for us in the BRANI organization is that we become pioneers so that fellow children of this nation, especially young people, unite and not divorced by identity politics," he explained. Furthermore, Ardy emphasized that Indonesia is a great nation. This nation consists of many ethnic groups, various religions, races, and groups, which are united by the spirit of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika. For this reason, he continued, this nation and large country must be cared for together by all components of the nation in order to remain sustainable. In essence, understanding the values of Pancasila and national insight must be a spirit in the chest of all Indonesian people. "Because, by caring for the spirit of nationality, we make sure this nation remains intact within the framework of this diverse Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia," he added. As a form of ideology, it is clear that the commitment to care for nationality plays a role in creating the awareness of the people. This is also a reference for the BRANI organization to behave and act in the life of society, nation and state. Even for the financial organization he continued, the national idealism is real in Pancasila as the basis for the life of the Indonesian nation. This means that the noble values of Pancasila are a reflection of Indonesia's multicultural and multireligious nature. "Pancasila unites all tribes, languages, cultures, religious people living in Indonesia with the motto "Bhineka Tunggal Ika"," he concluded.
