Hans David Tampubolon, Jakarta – A discussion warns Friday that people's anger towards injustice holds more hazards to the livelihood of a nation than poverty.

"Research shows that there has never been a country that crumbled because its people are living in poverty, because poor men can always find means to survive using their own respective diligence. However, the case is a lot different when it comes to injustice," a member of the Regional Representatives Council (DPD), Farouk Muhammad, said in Jakarta on Friday.

"Once the people's feeling on justice is ripped apart, it is only a matter of time before the nation crumbles. I believe Indonesia now is at the yellow light status," he added.

Farouk was referring to the recent growing support for the two suspended Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) deputy chairmen, Chandra M. Hamzah and Bibit Samad Riyanto.

Their suspension and recent brief arrest were considered unfair by the public, especially after a tape was played at the Constitutional Court and revealed an alleged plot to frame them, orchestrated by a number of high ranking officials at the National Police and the Attorney Generals' Office (AGO).

Noted lawyer, Bambang Widjojanto, said during the discussion that people are very sensitive to blatant injustice and abuse of power practiced in front of their eyes.

"That's when the people will bond together in solidarity to fight injustice," he said.
