Yudhoyono Slams Habibie Remarks as 'Unethical' Zakir Hussain - Straits Times | December 18, 2012

Jakarta. President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono has criticized former Malaysian minister and newspaperman Zainuddin Maidin for insulting Indonesia's ex-president B.J. Habibie in an article, saying the comments are unethical and overstep the boundary.

The comments, he said, jeopardized relations between the two countries.

Yudhoyono's remarks came on the eve of his visit to Kuala Lumpur on Tuesday. He said he will raise the matter with Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak during their annual high-level talks.

"Although [Zainuddin's remarks] do not reflect the attitude and views of the Malaysian government, but that of an individual in Malaysia, it still affects our good relations," Yudhoyono said on Monday.

"I will raise this matter with the Malaysian PM, and I hope in future we are mindful of one another's feelings, respect one another, and in so doing not disrupt what we are doing to build cooperation and friendship between our two countries," he added.

He spoke after watching the premiere of the film "Habibie and Ainun," on the former president's relationship with his late wife.

In a column in Utusan Malaysia newspaper on Dec. 10, Zainuddin, a former Information minister, called Habibie a "traitor to his nation" and "a dog of imperialism" for freeing then East Timor.

The piece was headlined "Similarities Between B.J. Habibie and Anwar Ibrahim," and took aim at the close friendship between both men. Datuk Seri Anwar is Malaysia's opposition leader.

It drew a strong backlash from Indonesians and their lawmakers, some of whom called on Yudhoyono to cancel today's scheduled visit.

Zainuddin refused to apologize all of last week, despite calls to do so.

Habibie has kept his cool, saying via Habibie Center's Twitter account: "When one insults you, take it as a compliment that they spend so much time thinking about you, when you don't even think about them."

At yesterday's movie screening, Yudhoyono paid tribute to Habibie's contributions.

In the audience was Anwar, who told reporters: "I have always hoped for good bilateral ties. Those who are shallow, rude, of low intellect, should not disturb good relations."

Yudhoyono has a scheduled private meeting with Najib.

Both sides have arranged to discuss issues such as the protection of Indonesian nationals and workers in Malaysia, boundary matters, as well as trade and investment, said presidential staffer Teuku Faizasyah.

Dihina eks Menteri Malaysia, Habibie Makin Akrab dengan Anwar Ibrahim Rachmadin Ismail - detikNews

@HabibiecenterJakarta -

Tulisan mantan menteri penerangan Malaysia Zainudin Maidin yang menghina mantan presiden BJ Habibie juga ditujukan pada tokoh oposisi Malaysia Anwar Ibrahim. Namun tulisan itu rupanya tak mempengaruhi hubungan Habibie dan Anwar, keduanya bahkan semakin akrab.

Hal itu terlihat saat Anwar datang ke Jakarta hari ini bersama anak dan istrinya, Nurul Izzah dan Wan Azizah. Mereka sengaja terbang untuk menonton pemutaran perdana film 'Habibie & Ainun' sore ini di Epicentrum, Kuningan, Jaksel, Senin (17/12/2012).

Sebelum menonton, keduanya sempat makan siang bersama di kediaman Habibie. Anwar menceritakan kebersamaannya dengan Habibie di akun twitternya @anwaribrahim.

"Jakarta: bersama Azizah @n_izzah dan RAShahrir kerumah exPres Habibie. 3ptg:nonton "Habibie-Ainun" tulis Anwar.

Anwar juga sempat mendiskusikan soal artikel Maidin di harian Utusan Malaysia yang sempat membuat heboh itu. Keduanya mengaku hanya tertawa saja melihat cara Maidin menggambarkan sosok Habibie dan dirinya.

"Sy makan dirumah Habibie-kami ketawa je"

Tak hanya itu, foto-foto keakraban keduanya juga terlihat di akun @habibiecenter dan staf Anwar. Mereka saling berangkulan sambil tersenyum lepas.

Sore ini, baik Anwar maupun keluarganya juga sudah hadir di lokasi pemutaran film. Presiden SBY beserta jajarannya juga hadir dalam acara.

Sebelumnya, di rubrik Tajuk Rencana (editorial) koran Utusan Malaysia edisi Senin, 10 Desember 2012, mantan Menteri Penerangan Malaysia Zainudin Maidin menulis dengan judul "Persamaan BJ Habibie dengan Anwar Ibrahim". Di media yang dikontrol langsung pemerintah itu, Zainuddin menggambarkan Habibie sebagai sosok egois, memualkan, serta pengkhianat bangsa.

Zainudin mengawali tulisannya dengan mengatakan 'Presiden Indonesia ketiga, Bacharuddin Jusuf Habibie yang mencatatkan sejarah sebagai Presiden Indonesia paling tersingkat, tersingkir kerana mengkhianati negaranya, telah menjadi tetamu kehormat kepada Ketua Umum Parti Keadilan Rakyat Anwar Ibrahim baru-baru ini. Beliau diberikan penghormatan untuk memberi ceramah di Universiti Selangor (Unisel).' Zainudin juga menyebut keduanya sebagai anjing imperialisme.

Hubungan Habibie dan Anwar memang cukup akrab. Anwar -- yang hendak mengikuti Pemilu Malaysia 2013 -- mengundang Habibie berbicara ke Universitas Selangor pada Kamis 6 Desember 2012 lalu. Kunjungan itu sebagai balasan atas kedatangan Anwar Ibrahim di Jakarta pada 28 November 2012 untuk menghadiri 'Celebrating The Habibie Center's 13th Anniversary and Democracy Take-Off? The BJ Habibie Period. Anwar Ibrahim, mantan Wakil PM Malaysia, memuji Habibie dengan menyebut era Habibie yang singkat membawa perubahan besar di Indonesia.
