JAKARTA - September seems to be a sign of the Creator for Indonesia. This started with the arrest of the son-general in a demonstration in the DPR, showing off Kaesang Pangarep's wife, Erina Gudono, President Jokowi's son-in-law who went on a private jet during a trip to the United States until the arrival of Catholic leaders around the world and also the leader of the Vatican state, Pope Francis with full simplicity.

As a leader of Catholics around the world and leader of the Vatican State, Pope Francis' simplicity during his visit to Indonesia is exemplary. As his name implies, he is known as a noble person who is full of simplicity and love.

The arrival of the leader from this Vatican state to Indonesia in the context of traveling apostolyc to a number of countries in Asia and the Pacific. The Supreme Leader of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis chose simplicity by using Toyota Kijang Innova Zenix as his main vehicle, leaving the choice of luxury cars commonly used by world leaders.

Not only that, since its arrival in Indonesia on September 3. He arrived at the VVIP Terminal of Soekarno-Hatta Airport using a blue ITA Airways Z400 commercial aircraft with the Vatican flag. The Pope also chose to stay at the embassy office rather than a five-star hotel.

The Commander of the Presidential Security Forces (Paspampres) Major General TNI Achiruddin who was also involved in security said the Vatican did not want to use luxury cars when Francis visited Indonesia. "They want a simple, simple, and general vehicle," Achiruddin said in a written message received by VOI, Monday, September 9.

Achiruddin, who once served as Dandim 0506 Tangerang for the period (2015-2017) added that the car used by Pope Francis during the state visit agenda in Indonesia was not a bullet-proof car. However, security against the number one person in the Vatican remains tight and maximal. "Although the car used is not an anti-bullet car, Pope Francis' security during the trip remains strictly and maximally implemented," said Achiruddin.

The soothing sight was shown by the Grand Imam of the Istiqlal Mosque, Prof. KH Nasaruddin Umar and Pope Francis during a photo together after the Interreligious Meeting or interfaith meeting at the Istiqlal Mosque, Jakarta, Thursday (5/9/2024). At that time, Grand Imam Nasaruddin kissed the forehead of the Father of the Pope, who was responded by kissing the hand of the Grand Imam.

The response of various young people at the Merdeka Palace, Jakarta, before the state ceremony amazed the Pope. He said the function of education and school is very important so that young people can be educated from an early age to respect differences.

"This is where the function of education is very important because from a young age it is important for children to be educated to respect differences. If they are all, we all respect differences, then peace will be maintained," said the Pope.

When he left for the Vatican Embassy office, without hesitation the Holy Father sat beside the driver, he seemed to remove the class limit between the driver and the passenger. The Pope seemed to want to teach that an important guest did not have to sit in the middle while the driver remained ahead as respect for the person. In his example, he taught that everyone basically has the same degree.

Pope Francis' visit to Indonesia on September 3-6, 2024, should be a momentum to suppress the problem of social inequality in the country that has been bright and shown by his youngest son from President Jokowi.

Jokowi's Son And Son-in-law Showcase Hedonis Style, KPK Dare?

The simplicity of Pope Francis is considered inversely proportional to a number of officials and family of officials in Indonesia. Recently, the youngest son of President Joko Widodo, Kaesang Pangarep, and his wife, Erina Gudono, drew criticism for showing off his hedonist style while in the United States. And obviously this hurts the middle class of people in Indonesia.

The use of private jets at a rental price of billions of rupiah, eating bread for Rp. 400,000, and buying a tanker or baby train which is estimated to cost tens of millions is exhibited by Erina through her Instagram story. This news surfaced on social media after one of the netizens on the X account uploaded a screenshot of Erina's Instagram Story in the form of a photo window plane on Wednesday, August 21, 2024. The netizen suspected that Kaesang and Erina went to the US using a private jet because the plane window did not look like a commercial airplane window in general. Also Erina Gudono update her story from the plane window which is believed to be a commercial plane.

Telematics expert and former politician Roy Suryo compared the case of alleged gratification of Kaesang Pangarep's private jet with Mario Dandy's case, who likes to show off his wealth on social media. Roy Suryo also asked the KPK to dare to process this case. "KPK must have the courage to process Kaesang Pangarep. Is the KPK afraid? This is clearly a gratification that must be investigated," he said.

Furthermore, Roy Suryo revealed, in the corruption case, Rafael Alun was exposed after the behavior of his son, Mario Dandy Satriyo, became in the spotlight. "For example, Rafael Alun, at first the case was not because of him, but because of his son, Mario Dandy, who finally imprisoned Rafael. The KPK must act indiscriminately and not be afraid to investigate cases like this," he said to VOI in a written message.

The Indonesian Anti-Corruption Society (MAKI) suspects that President Joko Widodo's (Jokowi) son, Kaesang Pangarep, traveled to the United States using a private jet that is facilitated by the online shopping application PT Shopee International Indonesia. In the technical instructions of the Ministry of Religion, it also concerns the wife and child and sister and it means that the brother who gets the flight ticket facility can also be categorized as an alleged gratification," he explained.

Unfortunately, after being criticized by many parties. Not a few demanded Kaesang to open his voice about the luxury facilities enjoyed by him and his wife. Even his hedon life was linked to allegations of gratification. The public is really waiting for Kaesang's courage to admit it manly and also the KPK's decisive action indiscriminately.

Between Iqbaal Ramadhan, Gibran Rakabuming Raka And Kaesang Pangarep

Jokowi's two children, Gibran Rakabuming Raka and Kaesang Pangareb, are considered to be the cerminants of today's young leaders. Gibran, who is three heads old, is now the elected Vice President and Kaesang Pangareb occupies the position of Chairperson of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI). Of course, it cannot be separated from the role of his father who became president. It was just that Jokowi's two sons received a disaster after being reported to the KPK after Kaesang Pangareb's wife showed off to America.

Warganet assessed that the style of Jokowi's two sons was inversely proportional to the son of Iqbaal Ramadhan of a Moerdiono who is a former general of the TNI and former minister of state secretaries of the era of President Soeharto. Iqbal was reluctant to use his father's big name. In his statement on a TV show, Iqbal wanted to experience the struggle of his friends as ordinary people.

"There is only one thing I want to know. What it feels like to be a small community when they are arrested and detained by the security forces for demanding their rights. The right to be free from torture is the right of all the nation's children on human soil," he continued.

The attitude of the knight Iqbaal received praise from netizens. Netizens with the @wangi*** account compared Gibran and Kaesang with Iqbal who did not mention his father's name, even though they were being pressured by the authorities. "Gibran and Kaesang know what it's like to be kicked by the apparatus or not? Do you know how hard it feels to eat and pay for the boarding house or not? Can you not live normally and don't have to show off? Do you know that Gibran and Kaesang know that their standards are Mulyono?"
