Selamat malam DC, Saya ikut mendukung 100% IDE agar mahasiswa dan masyarakat Indonesia di DC area ikut menyampaikan sikapnya dalam sidang tahunan WB/IMF 16/17 April besok, baik itu secara tertulis maupun dengan ikut dalam rangkaian aksi di depan gedung WB/IMF Tapi saya masih belum 100% sepakat /mengerti (apalagi sampai 1000%) dengan beberapa point dalam petisi Pak Chris/kita ini(petisi ini menjadi petisi kita karena Permias DC secara resmi telah menyatakan dukungannya). Yg menjadi pernyataan bagi saya : 1. Apakah dengan menyampaikan petisi ini kita juga resmi mendukung/endorse posisi dari Mobilization for Global Justice yg direfer dalam surat petisi ini ? Posisi mereka dapat dilihat di http://www.a16.org/form_endorsement.html Dan apakah Permias DC akan ikut mengendorse posisi ini ? Apabila iya Faran mungkin bisa langsung ke site itu dan menyatakan dukungannya. Kemudian untuk aksi Minggu/Senin apakah sudah ada kordinasi dengan pihak organizer ? Jangan sampai kita kena apesnya kalo kita nanti kurang persiapan. Setahu saya pihak2 yg akan ikut berdemo telah ikut beberapa kali briefing dan latihan di markas Mobilization for Global Justice di Florida Avenue. 2. Point 1 & 5 dari segi isi saya setuju. Tapi apa benar alamatnya ke WB/IMF dan bukannya langsung ke GOI. 3. Point 3 saya setuju 150%. 4. Point 2, secara moral saya setuju bahwa WB/IMF bisa dikatakan ikut bertanggungjawab membawa Indonesia dalam jurang kehancuran. Tapi saya sangat bingung dengan point 4. Mungkin ada yg bisa lebih menjelaskan maksud dari point ini dan apakah memang feasible untuk menuntut lembaga2 ini ? Who is going to get what ? How much ? Who should be given priority ? dan segudang pertanyaan/keraguan yg laen. Segitu saja dulu deh.
