"Madam President, it is important to remember that Indonesia is a very good friend of the European Union and has made great strides in democracy. I was the chairman of the observer group that monitored the Indonesian elections over a period of time, and I have to commend them for their achievements recently.
I chaired an inter-faith conference in the European Parliament that was sponsored by the Indonesian Government. It is therefore very regrettable and unfortunate that they do not seem to have acted fast enough in dealing with this intolerant behaviour by some of their people. They need to recognise that what we are saying in this Parliament we are saying as friends: we need to be in partnership with Indonesia, the world’s largest Muslim democracy, to strengthen the democracy institutions of Indonesia. So I stress – because this debate will be on the front pages of the Indonesian newspapers – that we are talking as friends to strengthen the democratic arm of the Indonesian institutions and state."@en1
