Parliament (DPR) plenary session on Saturday morning, agreed to delay the fuel price increase on 1 April 2012, but it opens up the possibility of adjustment if the price of Indonesian crude oil rise or fall more than 15 percent within six months.
Some very unfortunate attitude of the minister who is also done by the minister who serves as an example only interior minister who gave instructions to the officer which prohibits a person or people think, Minister of Home Affairs (Mendagri) should be able to respect the rights of every head of Indonesia which is also a citizen of expression guaranteed by the constitution.
Raising the price of fuel laden foreign capitalist interests said an economist from the University of Gadjah Mada University in Yogyakarta Revrisond Baswir
If Government policy to increase fuel prices was allegedly laden with foreign capitalist interests, said an economist from the University of Gadjah Mada University in Yogyakarta Revrisond Baswir.
"Indications of the capitalist interests of the rising price of fuel oil (BBM) that also appear on the agenda of Indonesia launched a free government fuel subsidies in 2015. Consequences that happen automatically is that people will be forced to convert from premium to pertamax," he said in Yogyakarta, Thursday .
According to him in public discussions "Reforming the Indonesia Birthday", in 2015 the community was forced to pertamax conversion premium, because the subsidy is stopped.
At that time the foreign oil companies like Chevron, Petronas, and Shell will be rampant, and the foreign sector will reap benefits.
"The strong grip of foreign capitalism in Indonesia are increasingly seen in the presence of 40 foreign companies that have held the license to open a gas station. Each company is allowed to open 2000 retail outlets and control the entire production from upstream to downstream," he said.
He said the massive expansion of capitalism was also seen in the oil production accounted for 40 percent of Indonesia, has now held by foreign companies, Chevron. In fact, based on 2010 data, of the total oil palm plantations in Indonesia organized by the state was only 7.8 percent.
"Our country is in the economic context is already lost, because it organizes a wealth of resources is no longer alone. When a foreign-controlled production equipment, then the political and legal forces controlled by capitalists," he said.
Therefore, according to him, necessary rearrangement of production equipment in Indonesia. Potential wealth of the country's means of production must be controlled by the state because if not, then it will fall to one per person and oppressed people.
He said the sovereignty returned to the people including the means of producing wealth of natural resources must be controlled again by the people.
"Who is organizing the production process in almost all sectors and control the outcome? Is still under state control or fall on the individuals that have the potential to suppress the people," he said.
Former Chairman of the Central Executive (PP) Muhammadiyah Ahmad Syafii Maarif says concerning the phenomenon of political parties (parties) who take to the streets to demonstrate an increase in fuel prices actually declined only for momentary political gain.
"Political Party joined the demonstration was only for a moment of political interests, to seek the sympathy of the people, rather than aiming to change the situation. This was done because there will be elections and the long term only for the sake of his own political party," he said.
According to him, one way to address the current condition of the country is returning to the opening of the Basic Law (Constitution) 1945.
"This is important because if there is no parameter, then there is no hope. Many problems do not just seen on the surface, but look at the root cause of all that," he said.
