The revolution on mental attitude was a philosophical inspiration declared  by President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) since he was still the Presidential Candidate during the Presidential Election in 2014. However this philosophical inspiration had emerged  in his idea when he was still the Mayor of Solo and the Governor of Jakarta. He had been observing that after more than ten years of Reformation Era to have been done and achieving a number of political and economic progress of the life of Indonesian people, but the national spirit was still looked bad and weak.

President Jokowi was of the opinion a kind of Revolution to change rapidly the weak and bad Indonesian Spirit to become a high standard of  courageous, brave and optimistic attitude of among the Indonesian nation, should be  launched. Now President Jokowi is already in the top position of political power to command the implementation of the  revolution on mental attitude to the country.

However one year has passed  but a clear command on this matter has not yet been declared, affecting various politician and leaders had tried to interpret the deliberation of the Revolution on Mental Attitude in according to their own background of professionalism.  To avoid  unexpected manipulation and misleading interpretation, it is likely important a kind of official agenda should be made and to be declared as the official implementation of the revolution of the mental attitude.

Assessment

The objective of the revolution on the mental attitude is certainly concluded  through a sharp and  pertinent  analyses  process done by a genius thinker. It is really true and correct that without a kind of high standard of spirit  Indonesia as  big and large country with almost 250 million people of population with rich of natural resources,  is really difficult to become the Mighty State in the world.

The revolution on the mental attitude among the Indonesian had been declared. However this is not  an easy process and a cheap agenda.  This revolution certainly should be done continuously, not short term program, it is unending process.

However to speed that process, President Jokowi is actually just simply to make a series of steps as below. So far there have been no any deliberation  to be made, what is the revolution on mental attitude and  how is the operational process of  this should be done.

Really once President Jokowi said  that the Revolution on Mental Attitude is not a revolution  done  through the exploitation of thousand of masses but  the word revolution is just to indicate  that  a rapid process to change the existing character to become a high quality of a mental attitude is seriously needed. Accordingly to response this phenomenon  it is likely President Jokowi  just  officially  to call as many as the mature, wise figure  and former leaders of various professionals  of this country and they are briefed directly by the President about the idea to launch a revolution to establish a high standard of spirit among the Indonesia generation in order to build Indonesian as a Mighty State. Those figures are requested to compose a set of curriculum of that kind of objective. Once the President agrees with the draft of curriculum they composed, he just call the Minister of Education to make the draft of the curriculum  to become the Minister of Education agenda.

Accordingly it is likely  important for the nation to appeal to The President to urgently deliberate the idea of the revolution on mental attitude into practical way to be implemented.  It is believed there are a big number of wise and mature people of this country are ready to hear directly from President Jokowi what is the basic idea of the  Revolution on Mental Attitude and those are also ready to deliberate the idea into practical curriculum to be socialized among the society of this nation.

Conclusion

The idea to launch  the revolution on mental attitude  is based on a sharp  and pertinent observation with  a very  wise conclusion to bring Indonesia to become the high quality of civilized nation in the world and concurrently could bring Indonesia as a Mighty State. It is believed there are many group of wise people  among the society  agree with the idea to submit appeal to the President in order to make a decision to organize a kind of meeting  among  a number of the wise and mature people to deliberate the idea to launch the revolution on mental attitude  into a kind of operational concept of socialization or curriculum with the Minister of Education as the responsible cabinet  figure.

Recently the program on to Save the Country has been run based on the Minister of Defense idea to pave the strong nationalism among the young generation. It is also to have been done by the leadership of the People’s Consultative Assembly the Program to socialize the so called Four Main Pillars  of the Country of Indonesia among the young generation.

In sum it looks likely  the idea to educate the Indonesian young generation  with a series of the important  spiritual element  to have been considered seriously necessary to make them as a strong Indonesian Citizens.
