Villagers in the Indonesian province of West Kalimantan were very disappointed at the government that they threatened to raise Malaysian flag during the celebration of Independence Day on 17 August 2011.
MetroTV
quoted a village chief as saying that there
is hardly any development of public facilities on the area, the roads
have been damaged for many years. They also complained at the economic
inequality.
He further said the Malaysian government have been providing them with clean water facilities for many years.
I hope that the government of West Kalimantan
Province and the Central government in Jakarta would take this matter
very seriously and take immediate actions to continuously provide
everything needed by the villagers i.e good roads, transportation, clean
water, electricity, telephone, etc. at affordable prices.

People located far away from Java or central are there to be forgotten or being used only :(
@Ria,
Yes, it is very sad.
The government should pay more attention to people living the borders with foreign countries,
give them subsidy.
Those villagers obviously have bad luck living at the periphery of the empire but they can be happy with this chief who knows how to mobilize publicity for their cause.
pelajaran bagi SBY untuk tidak mengabaikan pembangunan di daerah terpncil
Ini adalah PR bagi NKRI, pemerintah harus cepat tanggap akan hal ini, karena dampaknya akan besar trhadap NKRI sendiri. Membalas chatt anda di blog saya : silahkan agan comment diblog saya comment formnya sdh sy betulkan. thanks.
The same problems usually appear at the borders of the states.
Yess we have to rise our own flag...but wht they get is they feel not Indonesia Independence...
The centralize development in Indonesia...remain poor society in other part of Indonesia...
pas mau ke web ini saya kira bakal ngebahas udin yang baru ketangkep.. hihi

@Colson,
You are right the village chief sure know how to mobilize publicity for their cause.
@R10,
Pemerintah tidak boleh melupakan daerah perbatasan negara.
@AC Milan,
Anda benar.
Saya akan berkunjung kembali.
@Utomo,
Yes pak you are right.
@Balimoz,
The villagers are frustrated.
@TUKANG CoLoNG,
Yang jadi masalah disini pemerintah kita yang tidak memperhatikan rakyat didaerah perbatasan.
at least it makes you look, right?
@Triesti,
Yes you are right.
kalau ancaman itu terbukti, ini sebuah peringatan serius buat pemerintah yang kini tengah berkuasa agar tidak mengabaikan masalah inftrastruktur di daerah perbatasan. apalagi malaysia seringkali dengan sengaja atau tidak sering melakukan provokasi.
@Sawali,
Rakyat didaerah perbatasan harus diberi perlakuan khusus agar mereka hidup berkecukupan untuk keluarganya
Assalamualaikum Harry,
The demands for utilities is legitimate enough though the threat may be due to frustration.
It is a good thing that as neighbours we are helping no?
I don't understand why that is not seen in a good light here.Sad isn't it.
Selamat berpuasa my dear and may Allah's blessings be upon us all for at the end of the day when we are called upon to face judgement we will be just his servants with no special treatment whether we are Malaysian or Indonesian.
Take care.

Although i always tell do your part of the game when people keep on complaining about the government, i have to say that infrastructure such as bridges, roads, water pipes, electricity, etc should come from the government.... i have the same longings for my dear Philippines.
Hopefully this comment from the village chief would serve as an eye opener that one's people can't just be taken for granted... just remembered when they have to ask for votes!!!!!
ini efek jika pemerataan pembangunan tidak terjadi semua terpusat di Jawa, ini mirip dengan Rakyat Papua
@Umihoney,
Wualaikum salam.
I fully agree when come to the final day of judgement we will be the same no matter what our nationality.
What I am trying to point out here is that a government have the obligations to develop every part of the country, so that the life of people can improve.
Government officials should be responsible if they failed to do that.
@WebbieLady,
As citizens we have a duty to remind the government about their obligations.
@Explorations,etc.
The village chief has made us, esp government officials, know about their cause.
@Smp3Lembang,
Mudah2an dimasa depan pembangunan akan lebih merata agar Indonesia tetap bersatu dan lebih damai.
saya mengelus dada sajalah,,
hehehee..
saya heran dengan pemerintahan yang sebenarnya mensejahterakan rakyat miskin, tetapi kenyataan apa coba, bisa ditebak Lah<<<
@Dijkstra,
itu adalah salah satu permasalahan yang ada dinegara kita.
