When people loot our backyard....

Ever wondered how it feels people playing cowboy at your garden, or throwing rubbish on to your cultivated soil??Well, Indonesia is soon gonna have a feel when the Defence Corporation Agreement will be efectively implemented.

The hassle on this DCA first started when Indonesia and Singapore agreed singing an agreement to extradise corruptors that are suspected to have taken shelter there. Things turned out good when it was discovered that the agreement was also in tie with a DCA also to Singapore.

Parliament went wild after knowing that various points in the DCA turned out to give much advantage towards Singapore when they conduct a military exercise. As a reminder, the whole DCA is about letting Singaporean Military force to do training on certain Indonesian soil and water. For exchange, Indonesia get to try and train with their military equipment which of course is far advanced than ours. Knowing the details, many people showed their dissagreement against the DCA. One of the main points is that by doing so, we are letting other nation to play around in our backyard. To make things worst, in some conditions, Singapore are allowed to invite another nation to loot Indonesian seas.

Well, the logic is, why let other people loot our backyard just for the sake of grabbing those corruptors or having a try at their advanced military equipment. It sure is an irony having to know that even though Indonesia has a vast area, but we don't have what it needs to defend it. Coz of this, Indonesia has always been played around by other nations in terms of their inability to guard their own teritorry.

So...would we mind another nation doing so. While they fire missiles, torpedoes and live amunition, the risk of poluting the environment is high? Not to mention that fishers cannot go fish while they have their exercise because they get the risk to get killed. But, what matters most is the breach of our sovereignity and our submission towards another country pressure. Is the price of getting back corruptors so low that we are able to sell our pride as a big nation???I'm pretty sure that the majority of the Indonesian people wouldn't do such things unless they are the ones who are able to sell their souls to the devil.
