Jakarta (Antara) - Indonesia will convey the need for a new global order and justice at the forum of the upcoming 60th anniversary celebrations of the Asian-African Conference (AAC) in Jakarta and Bandung, stated President Joko Widodo (Jokowi). "There must really be a strong message, especially about a new order of global balance and justice," President Jokowi noted during a limited meeting to discuss the preparations for the AAC 2015 at his office here on Friday. Present at the limited meeting were Minister/State Secretary Pratikno, Presidential Chief of Staff Luhut B. Pandjaitan who is the chairman for the National Committee of the AAC commemoration, Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister A.M. Fachir, and several Presidential Chief of Staff officials. The head of state noted that the speeches and welcoming address during the 60th anniversary celebrations of the AAC 2015 should not merely be something normative or ordinary. "The speeches or messages should be strong and emphasize the importance of global balance and global justice," the president reiterated. Earlier, on Thursday, President Jokowi oversaw several locations for the conference in Bandung and remarked that the preparations for the event were 96 percent complete. Meanwhile, Military Commander General Moeldoko has called on his personnel to be alert and act without hesitation while securing the commemoration of the AAC. "To ensure security, personnel must act firmly and without hesitation," he stated during a roll call of VVIP security forces for the 60th AAC anniversary event in Bandung on Thursday. The roll call only lasted 10 minutes as it was interrupted by a rainstorm. Forces involved in the roll call, however, remained in the field despite the heavy downpour. General Moeldoko stated that there should be no tolerance when principles are in question. "However, the comfort of the general public attending the AAC events must also be given priority," he added. On the occasion, he urged all security personnel to check and ensure optimal security arrangements at all rings.(*)
