Indonesia's political system is democracy. Indonesia's democracy is religious democracy. Even though democracy is godly, there are Islamic groups who are antipathy and want to overthrow it. Democracy in Indonesia still has many shortcomings, but that is no reason to leave it, especially if the substitute offered is not better. Unfortunately, the Islamic group wants to replace it with something bad, namely their version of the Islamic system which is tyranny, intolerant, and discriminative.
