Therefore, he reminded the officials of this country not to be arbitrary and arrogant with their people.

Because, there is a great force in society and it can bring them down at any moment.

According to Mudrik, the people of Central Java must come together in order to bring change to Indonesia for the better.

Meanwhile, United States Presidium General (retired) Gatot Nurmantyo said, WE was born as a moral movement to save Indonesia.

Because, he considered that there is currently a well-organized group that wants to change Pancasila.

“In Magelang, I received military education. Here I also took the soldier’s oath, that is, to be loyal to the Republic of Indonesia based on Pancasila and the Constitution of 1945. So now I wake up, because there are some groups that are trying to change Pancasila “, said.

Gatot said that despite the birth of KAMI, there were a number of groups that opposed him, this would not dim his enthusiasm to safeguard Pancasila and the integrity of the Republic of Indonesia.

Instead, he asked the American members to be more solid and strong.

“Those banners, whatever is against America, in my opinion they are a warning from Allah SWT for US to be stronger, tougher and not stop,” Gatot said when meeting after the prayer.

Gatot also asked the American members not to be easily provoked. Furthermore, they are hostile to those who have been shown to have contributed to Indonesia’s progress.

The reason is that, as long as the objective is the same even though the method is different, WE are also obliged to support it.

“If there are those who demonize the United States, but fighting for Indonesia means the same, they are also our brothers. As long as your target is for Indonesia, for Indonesia, for Indonesia, then you are our friends. However, if you fight Indonesia, you will automatically become your opponent, “said Gatot.
