Peoples
crowded on North, South, East and West of Pontianak bring weapons and
looks anger. The main road is blocked by the Armed Forces: Jalan Pahlawan,
Perintis Kemerdekaan, Veteran, Imam Bonjol, and Tanjungpura. Is needed to
avoid the unexpected cituations. One battalion of Mobile Brigade from Polri
is arrived at Pontianak on Friday to support the Armed Forces there.

form Chief of Polri to shoot on place the rioters when it necessary...".
Provocation
The
citizens said that the attacking and anarchy acts is doing by an
unidentified group of peoples coming from out towns. "The patterns
like this is to prevent, also not allowed provocators burning house and
killing the citizens" one citizens from Gang Sepakat I Jalan

released apoligize for that happened at Wednesday that became a rioting.
The riot is started when a bus hit a motorcycle driver, the two drivers is

ethnics clash because a traffic accidents. Peoples have to take a
conclusion by viewing the problems, what is a personal problems or not. Do
you agree?
