"We should not be easily deceived by unconfirmed news or information," he said in his written address read out by Defense Force Commander Admiral Widodo at the commemoration of the 50th anniversary of death of Great General Soedirman, the founding father of the Indonesian military here Saturday night. Under the present freedom it was easy for one to manipulated news, to make the wrong right and the right to be wrong," he said. The head of state also called on the people not to easily underestimate and blame others because those who did that were not always better. "respecting one another is something far better to do," he added. "So, let us develop our care for others as proof that we are good religious followers," he said. To achieve that he urged people to maintain unity, not to be suspicious to each other, not to be easily incited or pitted against each other and to care for others. He said he believed by adhering to Soedirman's spirit and personnel qualities all Indonesians, particularly TNI, could achieve progress and remain a solid organisation. Under current changes as shown not only in discourses and paradigm of challenges and tests he admitted the challenged face by TNI was not light, he said. He said TNI would not only have to respond to criticisms made by the people but more than that in had to face all the curses addressed to it as probably a political revenge for the role it played in the past. "In this open era, what we actually need is a more civilised, ethnical and moral way of lodging criticism and suggestion," he said.
