Reflection of 12 Years on the Aceh Peacetalk

Today, Tuesday, August 15, 2017 became the historic day of the birth of a peace agreement between the government of the Republic of Indonesia and the Free Aceh Movement (GAM). Today, the people of Aceh welcomed it with joy because twelve years ago, the people of Aceh feel the pain so great.

Not only property, but life also floated. Every day when we read in the newspapers, hear the good news on television and radio almost every day the lives of innocent Acehnese people killed at the end of the bullet. So also many widows and orphans due to good relatives that father, mother, in-laws and close relatives lost some where.

Now, twelve years already Aceh re-arrange the peace of Aceh after being hit by the earthquake and tsunami on December 26, 2004 then. There is a great hope for all the people of Aceh to re-arrange their civilization that was crushed by civil war and earthquake and tsunami disaster.

For the martyrs who have fallen leave us, let us deliver a prayer to them .. Al-Fatihah.
