One of the hottest topics in the Indonesian mass media today is the story about the alleged bullying of four new students of the Don Bosco Senior High School in South Jakarta, by 18 of their senior students.
According to The Jakarta Globe, the Jakarta Police have questioned nine of the senior students, seven of which have been named as Suspects.
The Spokesman of the Jakarta Police Sr Comm Rikwanto was quoted as saying that the Police will determine whether to place those students in a detention center or let them stay free but must report regularly to the Police.
He further stated that the bullying was done outside the school compound and after the school's new students orientation program i.e on 24 July 2012.
Meanwhile, the Jakarta Governor Fauzi Bowo said that the school would not be sanctioned if the bullying was not done at the school.
I hope that this alleged bullying case would be processed very soon, in this case the students' young ages and the fact that this is the first time they bullied should be taken into consideration.
I also hope that all schools would adopt a strict anti-bullying policy which punish any students who bullied fellow students by ousting them from the school.
Nevertheless, I am very surprised at the very high profile reporting of this alleged bullying case, considering that high school students in Jakarta have been fighting among themselves in the streets quite often for so many years, and until now the authority still can't prevent them, and news reporters do not seem to be interested to write about them.

I aggree with U, the goverment must give a serious attention to stop that.
Bullying - a group systematically harassing and pestering one of a few victims- happens in many, many workplaces and at schools. So I agree it's remarkable this incident was extremely high profile.
Yet it is a social ( and sometimes legal) problem. Schools ( and companies) should have adequate policies to prevent the phenomenon.
@Aulawi,
Yes the government holds the key to solve the problems with students.
@Colson,
I fully agree with you.
But the government should also do something to solve it, not just ignore it as if nothing happened.

Happy Idul Fitri to you too.
we have to stop bullying...not good for student morale
those who bully have inferiority complex. it is this complex which makes them bully. they feel that bullying is an actual way of exhibiting strength while in actual fact its a way of showing insidious weakness. In view of bullying, the role of the family, the government and NGO can not be overemphsized. they must work together in order to fight this trend as a result leading to its reduction in our society

Bullying is an international issue. The source of this behavior should be identified as soon as possible so that proper intervention could be made. Back home, bullying can also resort to car accidents, gang rape and other juvenile crimes. As such, toyota dealers long island helps in this anti-bullying campaigns by sponsoring related school events.
@Johnny,
Yes I agree with you
@Peter,
Yes the parents, teachers and other members of the society must work together to stop bullying.

@Larry,
I am glad to hear the efforts to stop bullying
I even heard a news that a group of college guys skipped class just to join in a huge car prank to another college campus. Some ford dealers long island recognized their cars and reported them to the police. Because of their help, they were able to find these rascals.
The best way to avoid any juvenile related crimes such as bullying, in fact, there are car financing companies who are cooperating with private and public institutions to be able to inform that bullying isn't cool. They are even giving away car stickers with slogans of anti-bullying that will, hopefully, stop this act from happening.
