Police Chief: PLEASE TALK OF THE LIMITS OF TOLERANCE

Papua police chief, Inspector General of Police Tito Karnavian said, concerning freedom of expression by most Papuans considered closed, Tito actually invited expression but must remain within the limits of tolerance.
"The issue of freedom of expression in Papua there are actually Act No. 9 of 1998 on Expression in Public. There are some opinions that may criticize my policies by saying, I am shut down democracy by not allowing demonstrations to speak of independence is now happening a lot, "said Tito Karnavian to tabloidjubi.com his residence to stay in touch while on the docks V above, Jayapura, on Friday (9 / 8).
Deliver it, unlike democracy demonstrations. Democracy is a system of establishing government in which power is vested in the people which is characterized by a number of indicators. For example, the division of power. The existence of the executive, legislative, judicial, direct election of the head of government systems and others. His opponent, according to autocracy where Tito was in power it was a single, authoritarian. Some names oligarchy, the power is in the hands of a group of people.
"In Papua, what happens is democracy. Indicator, there DPRP, MRP, no executive, the governor, the direct election of regional heads also implemented. The demonstration in this expression in public is only one element of democracy, "said Tito again.
According to Tito, throughout the world, freedom of expression is guaranteed, it is set in the UN convention but every country was adopted, ratified in different ways, according to the specific characteristics of each country. In Indonesia, express opinions publicly regulated in Law No. 9 of 1998 that created the post-reform.
In this Act, stipulates that expression, expression is the right of every citizen but Article 6 that there are limits set on how to express that opinion. There are five important points to note. Article 6 of Law No. 9 of 1998 reads that citizens express opinions in public duty and responsible for: (a) respect the rights and freedoms of others, (b) respect the moral rules generally recognized, ( c) comply with legal and regulatory provisions in force, (d) safeguard and respect the security and public order, and (e) maintain the integrity of national unity.

"So if there is a demonstration blocking the road, it should not be. Then-throwing demonstrations while throwing all sorts, asking for money to the people by force, there is a feeling of liberty diamana disturbed, it should not be. Other Cntoh, cursed people, slander, it should not be, "said Tito who was accompanied by his wife.
Tito said that in America, may be because democracy there has lasted two hundred years, while Indonesia's only fifteen years of running this liberal democracy. So according to him, should be gradual.
"So when the Act must give prior notification to the police, so please provided. And in that set of procedures. For example, should two days earlier, had described how many people will come or march, should also be explained from where they will depart, denggan use what every one hundred people and there should be a responsible person. It should be clear, "said Tito.
The most important point in Section 6 that, according to Tito is the last point that maintain the integrity of national unity. So, if rough way, if demonstration on independence vote, the Law no. 9 In 1998 it was obviously not be as harmful to national unity.
"I also do not agree with the demonstration that closed the road because I saw some colleagues of incoming reports, and from previous experience, it was closed off. In front of the Expo for example, thousands of people blocking the road so that all activities while at Jayapura's death there's only one way, from Sentani to Jayapura and it became the center of the economic pulse, "said Tito again.
When closed there by Tito the flow of goods and people to be stopped all. Imagine these mountain regions, Wamena, Lani Jaya, Puncak Jaya, Mountains, all it really depends on the Jayapura harbor where most of the containers that come into Jayapura contains basic food, basic needs of the people in Jayapura, Keerom, Sentani and in the mountain region . If the road is closed, the container can not be sorry for the way society Mount because the price of goods will go up all, who blamed the police. Then he also told friends that say this independence associated kondis voiced this.
"I also provide tolerance to them. Please talk within the limits of tolerance, but do not interfere with the general public. For example, on May 1 at the Village of Hope. Please demo, we watch. And other demonstrations, delivering about freedom of expression in Papua are very much at all. Within two to three days there must be a demonstration. Domonstrasi corruption problem, Raskin, road, liquor and others keep us secure, "said Tito end the interview
