There are many ways to look at the
character and behaviour Indonesia’s people. Movies and dramas is one of them.
If our movies and dramas contain more lies, while the audience was happy and
enjoying it, then we live in a falsehood lovers society. Or even ourself is
part of the falsehood. Acute flasehood
disease virus already spread anywhere.
Falsehood and lies become character
of life in almost all part. Many terrible accident in mass tranportation in
recent year is a product of falsehood. Airplanes, ships, trains, city buses,
public tranportation and many other considerably not road worthy. But the
agencies that have the otority didn’t bother with that issue. Eligibility license nonetheless issued. Fake eligibility license, of course.
Countries experiencing impotence and can’t protect society from the decaying
system and transportation tools. The country also impotent in other fields.
