primary important issue to be agreed and done by now.
Counterargument 1 Paragraph: The rate of poverty has been increased over the
past 10 years, first because of the lack of life-skill and underemployment society, but

spent for unnecessary issues by the functionaries.

job fields in order to minimize the underemployment rate. If this problem were solved,
the poverty issue would be solved as well.
As written in the fundamental laws of Indonesia, every single person has the right
to live prosperously. The populace of Indonesia does not deserve the suffering because
of reallocating budget for purchasing unnecessary things. The functionaries were exist
because of the societies picked them, that is why they must priority the needs of
society itself. Buying operational vehicles is important, but it will be better if the
country pick them wisely and economically. Joko Widodo, the chosen president for

Indonesia also against this proposal. He said that APBN must be spent for society and
the functionaries (ministries) could work without luxurious operational vehicle.
As written in the fundamental laws of Indonesia, every single person has the right
to be educated well. The society has the right to use the infrastructure and public
facilities. Improving them is primary important, and the education must be paid
attention well because the future of Indonesia depends on the youth generation. The
ministries claimed that most of APBN has been allocated for education, but how is the
fact? How many children at the school age wandering around the streets? It is because
the lack of attention from government. Therefore, purchasing luxurious cars is
incompatible with the condition of our country now. DPR must think the best and the
right way to deplete the APBN. It comes from society, which is why it would be best if
it were used for society.
The ministries complain that it is their right to have new facility, such as a car, in
the new governing era. They argue that it can enable them to accomplish their job.
Perhaps that is true. Society also admits that the functionaries need the operational
vehicle. However, purchasing new and luxurious cars will spend much from the
countrys budget which allocate for the prosperity and advancement of citizenries. It is
unforgivable. The decision will hurt the populace of Indonesia.
For all these reason, the issue of purchasing new luxurious cars for ministries must
be abandoned.
