Chapter 802: Dignity of the State at Gunpoint (End)

As soon as the doors of the Capitol closed, it was another whole day, and the reporters outside the door set up their cameras, all focused on the closed door. Even though the temperature was already over 40 degrees, the reporters stood quietly in the square, waiting for the gate to open again.

The sound of an engine first broke the calm in front of the Capitol, and five buses carrying the flags of the five permanent members of the National Assembly drove up, passed through the outlying sentry posts and fortifications, and stopped steadily on the square in front of the Capitol.

Just as the reporters were looking at them with curiosity, soldiers jumping out of the car wearing five types of military uniforms and loaded guns, and the military attachés of the embassies gave the order: "Standatattention, atease"

'Bang bang', a hundred soldiers stood up and rested for a while, and then stood neatly in the square under the leadership of their respective commanders.

The five colonels and military attachés who led the team trotted to Susilo and saluted, and said loudly in various languages: "General Susilo, we have come to carry out the mission on the order of the ambassador, please let your department go!" ”

Which one is this playing? Susilo, whose eyes were bloodshot, looked at these majestic and fierce soldiers suspiciously, and returned a military salute.

However, ambassadors abroad have ambassadorial privileges, which are internationally applicable. Susilo waved his hand, and the Indonesian soldiers in front of the fortifications immediately opened the barricades and let them go, and a hundred soldiers immediately walked into the Capitol garden in various languages, like a military parade.

Similarly, five colonels saluted the leader of the guerrillas and received equal treatment, after which a hundred soldiers of the Five Nations took over the defense of the entrance to the building.

The country has the demeanor of a great country, and even the shortest Chinese soldier is 1.8 meters tall, which is a head taller than the guerrilla leader next to him. The five colonels gave an order, and a hundred soldiers greeted each other with guns at the same time, and then they dispersed, and a group of elite soldiers rushed to their faces. Immediately afterwards, five second secretaries of the embassies of various countries also came in with the soldiers, and the five of them lined up at the gate, even in the order of the English letters of the names of their respective countries.

Susilo in the distance was not only a professional soldier, but also a half-bureaucrat, looking at the embassies of the five countries, and after a little silence, he understood that the matter had been resolved, and this was the opportunity of the five ambassadors to establish the authority of the United Nations. Seeing a few staff members coming out of the side door of the Congress and starting to place microphones at the gate, I couldn't help but curse secretly: Hmph, what are the five permanent members, they are purely five hooligans!

Ten minutes later, the closed doors of the Capitol finally opened, and the five second secretaries stepped forward, took the briefcases from their respective ambassadors, and then left as if in rehearsal, returning to the garden to wait quietly.

The five ambassadors applauded in unison, smiling and motioning for President Subbibi in the center to go out and give a speech. Subibi, who was blushing, walked quickly to the door of the building, stood in front of the standing microphone, bowed deeply, and said bitterly: "The people of Indonesia, the proposal to allow the referendums in Timor-Leste and Aceh has been reviewed and voted on by the National Assembly. Before 1 January 199, a referendum will be held to decide whether or not to become independent. ”

After a pause, Subbibi pleaded earnestly: "Compatriots in East Timor and Aceh, please stay." Believe me, I swear in the name of Allah that the new government will treat our compatriots from all regions, races and faiths equally, whether we are Javanese, Sundanese, East Timorese, Malays, Chinese, we are all Indonesians. Indonesia is our common homeland and we are one family.

Believe me, we in Indonesia will move towards a comprehensive rule of law, using the law to protect the legitimate rights and interests of all citizens. ……”

Subbibi's plea silenced hundreds of journalists, brought tears to the eyes of Indonesians in front of the televisions, and made viewers in other countries deeply sympathetic.

After the affectionate and earnest speech, the elated Taur Matan Ruace and Francisco Guterres Luolo also came out, and the two of them walked up to the microphone with red faces and shouted: "Compatriots, we have won!" Compatriots, please cast your sacred vote and win true freedom, independence and equality for our East Timor (Aceh)! ”

‘Yeah!’

The guerrillas, who had just managed to compose themselves, cheered and jumped up and down one by one, and threw their leader up with joy.

"Hooray! Long live Tauer! ”

"Hooray! Long live Francisco! ”

After a stir in front of hundreds of reporters, the two leaders shouted an order: "Soldiers, lay down your arms!" We go to prison, we will be in prison, witness our independence, freedom! ”

‘Yeah!’

The guerrillas, dressed in various clothes, hurriedly put their weapons on the ground in a group, lined up in two neat rows in the garden, and happily followed their respective leaders, and walked with their bare hands towards the Indonesian soldiers with loaded guns.

……

The congressional hostage incident was finally resolved in a dignified form, and although Subibi, the president who was appointed in a critical situation, may make Indonesia lose two pieces of territory, it has restored Indonesia's international prestige, which has fallen to the lowest point, and has also brought his domestic and international prestige to a peak.

"Indonesia has rich mineral resources and a huge domestic market of 210 million people, as long as they can truly move towards the rule of law, the economy will develop rapidly." - AP (Associated Press)

"President Subbibi is a charismatic leader who believes that under his leadership, Indonesia will be able to quickly get out of its predicament and achieve true democracy and freedom." - AFP (AFP)

For a time, Subi was appraised by reporters from all over the world as the most charismatic and greatest head of state at the end of this century, and his photo appeared on the front pages of major media outlets, becoming the most influential political figure in 1998.

The praise of foreign media and the hype of Indonesia's domestic media have also hyped up this national hero who dared to risk his life and also uphold the dignity of the country and the law. Another hero, the soldier who dared to stand under the gun and publicly shouted that the first soldier to die, Susilo, was also worshipped as the Indonesian military god.

Backed by unparalleled popularity, Subi was quick to make good on his promise to demand a strong demand from Congress to repeal all laws that discriminated against sexual minorities; Susilo also obtained all the incriminating evidence from the Xingtian Society and asked the Presidential Office to set up a "joint team" composed of the commander-in-chief of the Indonesian Armed Forces and others to investigate. Just a week later, the Joint Panel's report concluded that 31 military officers, led by Prabowo, had deliberately planned a series of ethnic clashes including destruction, looting, burning, ******, torture, kidnapping, and terrorist threats.

Immediately, the military court sentenced Prabowo and seven other generals to death by hanging, 24 middle- and low-ranking officers to death or life imprisonment, and 768 soldiers involved in the case to fixed-term imprisonment on more than 10 charges, including treason, attempting to subvert the regime, mutilating the residents, and plundering the residents' property.

As soon as the announcement of the General Headquarters of the Indonesian Armed Forces was announced, the whole country and the world were in an uproar, followed by cheers. In cities such as Jakarta, Surabaya, and Palembang, where there were heavy casualties, citizens took to the streets to celebrate, and even held up a portrait of President Subbibi and shouted 'Long live'!

At a time of national frenzy, the guerrillas were convicted by the courts, all sentenced to life imprisonment, and all were sent to East Timor and Aceh prisons to serve their sentences.

……

President Subbibi finally let out a sigh of relief, looked at the people celebrating outside the presidential palace outside the window, and said to Susilo next to him: "Susilo, we have finally passed this hurdle. ”

Hey, Susilo, who was already preparing to retire, sighed secretly, this is the national decency that was deceived from the gun. If Indonesia wants to be truly rich and strong, it can't do without those hateful Chinese!

Subi also sighed, since it was a performance, it was all fake, no matter how real the performance was.

After being silent for a while, Subi Bibi said in a deep voice: "Suxiluo, you will also become a political figure in the future, if you still can't see the strengths of others, and only stare at the shortcomings of others, you will never become a great politician." After retiring, go and talk to that Guo Guangming, after they figure it out, they will have a huge influence in the Chinese world. If we want to develop Indonesia, we cannot do without funds, especially the funds of Indonesian Chinese. The so-called political zhì means that we should engage more and more friends and have fewer and fewer enemies. In the world of the future, the mainstream is cooperation, not confrontation, understand? ”

Susilo was also silent for a while, and said in a low voice, "Understood." ”
