The government is not serious about maintaining religious tolerance. This is something that should exist in a democratic country where the quality of tolerance should become better over time. The government's attitude is slow to act and the various cases of intolerance that have happened lately is the proof. Anarchists who act on behalf of groups or certain religions will continue to appear if the government does not crack down on them firmly, therefore people should be reminded that freedom of worship for followers of different religions in Indonesia is protected by the law and that anarchists can be punished according to the law. Religious tolerance in Indonesia, which has become a model for many countries in the world, should be maintained and its betterment should serve as a prerequisite for the growth of other sectors within the country.
