The dialogue went on then the media team also questioned Panji Gumilang’s views on Indonesia’s debt.
Syaykh explained that Al-Zaytun is an institution (Educational Institution) when speaking about Indonesia, it is my homeland, Indonesia where my blood spills, Indonesia is a noble land, a holy land and our sacred land. And we test the students to the extent of their love for the country and we convey that the government and private debt has reached nearly 10,000 trillion.
We are capable because Indonesia is a rich land. So the trick is not to dig up the land for its natural wealth, don’t dig for oil for coal, don’t take it for foreign consumption, let this land remain rich, noble, still noble, we just take the surface of the land.
He added, “We have 70 million hectares of land, we only need to manage 30 million hectares of agricultural land in Indonesia for 5 years and we will finish planting food. Whoever controls food will control anything,” he said.
By cooperating with the people, by building a people’s economy in accordance with the ideals of the nation and state, namely the people who are led by wisdom in representative deliberations. And the Indonesian economy is a people’s economy with cooperation between the people and the government (PPP) to manage the land.
Furthermore, the media team also asked about the Shaykh’s views on diplomatic relations between Indonesia and Israel.
“It’s not just about opening relationships because we are Indonesians who are religious and all religions came from one father, namely the prophet Abraham who lived in the desert, whether Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism or Buddhism from the desert,” said Syaych.
“As a child of the Nation, there is hatred for the descendants of Ibrahim AS, the Children of Israel, most of us do not understand the history of Jews and Israel, such as if we have no relationship in aqidah or humanity,” he continued.
Deeper, but biologically we are related. With regards to the diplomatic relationship with Israel, we have diplomatic relations with France, even though France has colonies, but we have not severed that relationship.
“In the preamble of the 1945 Constitution, we uphold independence and abolish colonialism. China alone was able to reconcile Saudi Arabia and Iran, Shiites and Sunnis were united and reconciled, even though it is a communist country, while Indonesia, which is Pancasila, adheres to a just and civilized humanity.

“We are professionals like football players. A professional football player was hit by his leg without hitting it,” said Syaych.
We are professional players and professional educators.
