Should have been bleeding?: Separation of Rokan Darussalam, Meranti and Mandau

Ujungbatu City is the largest city in Rokan Hulu before establishment of Rokan Hulu Regency. This city and area around was the biggest income resource for the underdeveloped regency. But, development allocation accepted by this city is very small. Therefore, It is fitting their population want to establish new regency, that is Rokan Darussalam.

Duri City is the largest city in Bengkalis Regency. It's population about 250 thousand, bigger from Dumai City. This area was the biggest income resource for the Bengkalis Regency. It's oil production make the Bengkalis Regency become the richest Regency in Riau Province. But, development allocation accepted by this city is not equivalent. Therefore, It is fitting their population want to establish Mandau Regency.

Selatpanjang City is one of the largest city in Bengkalis Regency. This area was offshore oil producer which is explored by Kondur Petroleum. But, development allocation accepted by this city is not equivalent. Therefore, It is fitting their population want to establish Meranti Regency.

Stakeholders in Riau actually know that it is fitting the three area separated from their current regency. Separation in principle will give profit for both, child and main regency. As an example, at transportation sector, much cost and time effectiveness will be reached. It is very strange, Mandau population who live in Sumatera land and closely from Pekanbaru or Dumai City must to cross the sea. It's also very strange that Meranti population which nearer from Siak have to sailing to Bengkalis Island.

Separation will make people in that area who will know how to manage there are and to develop and to use their potential. But, why have been blocked? Separation will not make be poor the source regency because the source regency actually rich. Who have been poor is their functionary. Currently, they can increase their riches easily. Using the money, they can buy the contry authority who can block the separation : Depdagri, DPR and DPD.

DPR (parliament) as representative of society is expected to suppot the separation. But, on the contrary, exactly they oppose it. The first reason, Indonesian Parliament as one of the most corrupt institution in Indonesia by survey is easy to be bribed. The other reason, Indonesian parliament is representative of the big politic party. Politic party need money. And the money is got from regency/province functionary's corruption. Separation may be decrease the money to be corrupted.

DPD as the last hope of people is not forbid money from corruption.

So that, who can be expected other from God? No.

So, what have to do? Disturbance. Many of separation is reached by bloodshed. This is as though obligatory procedure. Perceiving Rokan Darussalam separation, a member of parliament said,"Isn't there fire?" And the fire meaning bloodshed.
