Democracy without violence is created in Kuningan “but the anniversary of Kuningan was postponed”

Kuningan, Controversinews | September 1, 2025 should be a special moment, namely the 527th anniversary of Kuningan. However, due to the less conducive national situation, the entire series of activities had to be postponed.

Big events such as carnival, red and white carnival, until the plenary session was postponed even though the preparation was mature, including the installation of tents that were finally dismantled again. All this is done in order to wait for a more conducive situation.

In fact, the Kuningan community is known to love peace and be able to maintain regional conducivity. This is proven in the demonstration of students, mass organizations, NGOs, to the online motorcycle taxi community the day before the 527th anniversary of Kuningan. The action took place without riots, in contrast to what happened in a number of other regions in Indonesia.

The conducive condition in Kuningan in the midst of heating the national situation is the fruit of the synergy between the elements of society and law enforcement officials (TNI -Polri), as well as effective communication. This could be a national barometer that the Kuningan community was able to realize democracy without violence.

However, this peaceful condition should not make the executives and legislatives proud. In fact, this must be used as an evaluation material to improve services to the community and build better brass, both in terms of economic and development.

Kuningan officials, both executive and legislative, are also demanded to maintain attitudes, ethics, and words so as not to offend or trigger the people’s anger. The peace of peace of Kuningan people must be balanced with the behavior of policy makers with integrity and trustworthy.

Kuningan executive and legislative must really fight for the interests of the people, not sitting together only for the benefit of their respective groups. **
