… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …

'Opinions carelessly expressed can hurt business environment'

Debnath Guharoy, Consultant, The Jakarta Post

It was a volatile seven days in Indonesia last week. Influenced by the stock-market roller-coasters around the world, the Jakarta stock market had its own fall and recovery. In another realm, a Garuda pilot was sentenced to 20 years for Munir's murder but Gus Dur reflected the views of many when he said the real killers were still at large.

The unnecessary development of the week, however, was General Djoko Santoso's comment that Indonesia wasn't ready for democracy.

Ever since the measurement was introduced three years ago, the Roy Morgan Good Governance monitor has reflected the people's resounding vote for democracy.

Since that time, around 70 percent of the population have consistently said they believed "democracy is working". The military general is obviously among the 30 percent who disagreed.

Ten years ago, the wisdom of Indonesia's generals facilitated a smooth transition of power from dictatorship to democracy. Since then, the collective efforts of the world's fifth largest population have made it a beacon for the Islamic world. The current President is a true believer of democratic principles, a conviction he often reiterates.

The conflicting view of his chosen commander, expressed and explained in public, is more than confusing. It has raised eyebrows, not just in Indonesia.

Several institutions and many of their associates make strenuous efforts to promote Indonesia to prospective investors around the world. One of the new attractions is Indonesia's successful record as a ten-year-old democracy.

If the armed forces are seen as anything other than a defender of democracy today, they will send shock-waves across the business community, internationally.

Not because businesses care too much about democracy itself, but because they know there is no going back to authoritarian rule again. The people would not accept a breach, endlessly. The turmoil in Pakistan today is living testimony.

Public servants accustomed to years of total authority can find the behavioral adjustments required by a democracy, difficult.

Though the armed forces are not public servants in the same way bureaucrats or politicians are, they cannot ignore the fact that their own welfare is also dependent on the efforts of the people. Everybody has a role, and a responsibility.

As Indonesia continues to consolidate its position in the free world and the global economy, the pain is being felt most of all by the humble worker. That includes the small business owner.

The necessary removal of subsidies and the impact on the price of fuel created an even greater burden on the vast majority of breadwinners. While the 17 percent inflation that was triggered in September 2005 is currently hovering around 6 percent, the price of essentials is continuing to hurt almost all Indonesians.

Most people have always led a modest life in Indonesia, but the struggle in recent times has become even harder.

Based on the national average, the Main Income Earner was barely able to meet the needs of his/her household, even before September 2005. Though many more are doing more than one job nowadays and there is a noticeable increase in the average earnings of Main Income Earners, they are still unable to take care of all the needs of their families.

Other members of the family, or the extended family, are now compelled to contribute. That is because the average household expenditure has also crept up at a level higher than income.

The two graphs are beginning to merge again, after two years. The two trendlines met at the Rp 800,000 mark in September 2005, crossed over and grew apart while they climbed. They merged again for the first time in September 2007 at around Rp 970,000.

The next few quarters will offer a better understanding of the alleviation, if the gap doesn't adversely widen again.

These observations are based on Roy Morgan Single Source, the country's largest syndicated survey with over 27,000 Indonesian respondents each year. The results are updated every 90 days.

While it is easy for affluent homes to take luxuries off the weekly shopping list, it is difficult for everybody else to eat less tahu. The longer term easing of the proverbial national belt can only happen with more jobs and higher earnings.

Investments, from within the country and from without, are essential prerequisites. Political stability is an equally important backdrop for investment.

In a democracy, the people expect the armed forces to be in a permanent state of readiness, a last resort in quelling disturbances or attending to emergencies beyond the capacity of the police.

To say or do anything that contradicts that role cannot be good for the stability of Indonesia's current democracy, its businesses or jobs.
