The noted Indonesian cultural observer also called on all parties to remain at their own position and learn from all things that have happened, inclunding the flood.
"Le us study together the relations of matters pertaining to the form of government, democracy and public services to know whether the government officials are right or wrong in making a decision," Cak Nun noted.

Cak Nun also called on all Jakartans to be friendly with the environment and not to destroy it.

He further pointed out that a natural disaster could happen due to the three reasons namely the will of God, nature condition, and human error. (dar)
