The largest Islamic country in the world has such a little voice in Mideast politics. Indonesians are a people who are capitalist first before their religion. There are those who want an Islamic voice in Indonesia and they need to make more noise to the elites who claim they are the third largest democracy in the world. in reality most of those in countryside have little voice in this country. The leaders are more interested in getting into the G 20. This country has always been run like a corporation and after three decades of corrupt dictatorship little has progressed for the masses. Many live in shantytowns while rich Chinese dominate the economy and elites shop in high fashion shopping malls. This country has free elections but little change or progress for the Muslim people is not visible after their own Arab spring in 1998.
it is the West and China that are really trying to turn this country away from Islamic values and put a consumerism morality into the culture of these great islands. Brainwashing a people to put most important thoughts into material things is easiest way to control and distract citizens for easy rule. The West has colonized these lands for many years using Chinese middle men and merchants. Western globalists love Indonesia for its own growing small elites with money and its access to a local poor cheap labor population that will never be allowed to prosper. Indonesia needs an awakening like it did in 1998 but instead needs to overthrow the forces of globalization that only allow one group to prosper and the religious folks in the countryside to suffer and remain poor masses without any real political voice. Indonesia's day of reckoning will come and the trendy expensive stylish malls will burn down once again.
