Observers consider public outrage towards Anies and other officials for allowing the FPI crowd to



[ad_1]

JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com – UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta political analyst Adi Prayitno believes that it is natural for the public to pour out their anger at DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan as a result of a series of celebrations by the leader of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) Rizieq Shihab, who created a crowd.

He considered that the public’s attention to Anies was due to notable differences in behavior.

“Not just Anies, of course, but Anies is responsible. Even if he wants to be blamed anyway, Anies can be blamed because Anies is not as angry and assertive as usual,” Adi said when contacted by Kompas .com, on Tuesday (11/17/2020).

“So far, Anies is considered the most determined governor to do so emergency shutdownHe even wanted to pull the emergency brake, but it was the turn of the wedding on the Prophet’s birthday to have no attitude. So it is natural to blame him, “he explained.

However, Adi disagrees if the fault lies entirely with Anies.

Because, in fact, the crowd as a result of Rizieq’s return from last week happened not only in DKI Jakarta.

At first, Rizieq was greeted by his supporters at Soekarno-Hatta Airport, Banten, without the authorities anticipating the massive influx of people blocking toll roads and disrupting flight schedules.

DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan even visited Rizieq when he arrived in Indonesia.

Rizieq then held several celebrations in Jakarta, which, of course, were attended by a crowd of supporters.

During the wedding party of her daughter, Shafira Najwa Shihab, the police even shut down Jalan KS Tubun where the celebration took place.

BNPB also distributed tens of thousands of masks to those attending the celebration.

Rizieq supporters also filled the Peak Route as their lord was about to give a lecture in Megamendung, Bogor Regency, on Friday (11/13/2020).

More than that, crowd anticipation matters are also the responsibility of other officials.

“All the parties that are responsible for enforcing the health protocol are wrong, because they are not firm in taking action against the violations committed by HRS (Rizieq) and friends, not just Anies, of course, although Anies is responsible”, Adi said.

He gave an example, until now the government has been trying to popularize the term health protocol.

A handful of resident activities that were found to violate health protocols were also subject to sanctions.

In fact, a video once went viral on social media of how the police once cursed residents who were celebrating a wedding.

“So far, police officers and related ministers have been the most aggressive in calling for the importance of health prootkol, even if offenders are threatened with criminal and other sanctions,” Adi said.

“But how is it that in this context all the related parties have hardly moved and no one dares to take firm action. So it is natural that there are recent speculations,” he concluded.
