Organized by the Indonesian Legal Aid Institute Foundation (YLBHI) in Jakarta two weeks ago, the discussion was halted by police, after the venue was surrounded by a mob. A day later, another event at the YLBHI was disrupted by a similar mob who believed that the meeting was a sign of the revival of the banned Indonesian Communist Party (PKI). Ongoing discussions about this dark period of history will clarify what was initially murky. In a discussion on truth and reconciliation, truth is a precondition for reconciliation. Without clear facts, apologies or compensation will be difficult to realize. Perhaps those who attacked the YLBHI -- many believe they were hired demonstrators -- do not understand communism and the history of 1965. They may be victims of a misguided campaign to convince them that the ghost of the PKI has arisen. The Soviet Union broke apart long ago, and China is unashamedly adopting capitalism. In Indonesia, communism only left a few people who are more interested in demanding justice because they were punished without trial, rather than hoping for a revival of the banned ideology.
