Berikut Pidato Lengkap Prabowo dalam bahasa Inggris:
”
His Excellency, Mr. Antonio Guterres, Secretary General of the United Nations. Her ‎Excellency, Madame Annalena Baerbock, President of the United Nations General Assembly. ‎His Excellency, Mr. Morses Abelian, Under-Secretary-General for General Assembly and Management. Excellencies, Heads of States, Heads of Governments, Distinguished ‎Delegates, Ladies and Gentlemen.
It is indeed a great honor for me to stand in this August General Assembly Hall among leaders and representatives who represent almost all of humanity. We differ in race, religion and nationality, yet we gather together today as one human family. We are here first and foremost, as fellow human beings, each created equal, endowed with unalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
‎The words of the United Nations Declaration of Independence have inspired democratic movements across continents, including the French Revolution, the Russian Revolution, the Mexican Revolution, the Chinese Revolution, and Indonesia’s own struggle and journey to freedom, it also gave birth to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights adopted by United Nations in 1948, all men are created equal.
Was the great that opened the way to unprecedented global prosperity and dignity, and yet, in our own era of scientific and technological triumphs, an era capable of ending hunger, poverty and environmental ruin. We also continue to face today, grave, dangerous challenges and uncertainties, human folly fueled by fear, racism, hatred, oppression and apartheid threatens our common future.
‎My country knows this, for centuries Indonesians lived under colonial domination, oppression and slavery. We were treated less than dogs in our own homeland. We Indonesians know what it means to be denied justice and what it means to live in apartheid, to live in poverty and to be denied equal opportunity. We also knew what solidarity can do in our struggle for independence, in our fight to overcome hunger, disease and poverty, the United Nations stood with Indonesia and gave us vital assistance.
Decisions are made here based on human solidarity by the Security Council and The Assembly gave Indonesia independence international legitimacy open doors and supported our early development through the efforts of the United Nations children fund, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, the FAO, the World Health Organization, and many, many other United Nations institutions. And because of that, Indonesia today stands on the cusp of shared prosperity and greater equality and dignity.
‎Madam President Excellencies,
Our world today is driven by conflict, injustice and deepening uncertainty. Everyday we witness suffering, genocide and blatant disregard for international law and human decency. In the face of these challenges, we must not give up, as the United Nations Secretary General said, we cannot give up. We cannot surrender our hopes or our ideals. We must draw closer, not drift apart. Together we must strive to achieve our hopes, our dreams.
The United Nations was born from the ashes of the Second World War that claimed scores of millions of lives. It was created to secure peace, security, justice and freedom for all. We remain committed to internationalism, to multilateralism and to every effort that strengthens this great institution.
‎Today, Indonesia is nearer than ever before to meeting the Sustainable Development Goals of ending extreme poverty and hunger. Because years ago, this very chamber chose to listen and uphold social and economic justice. We will never forget.
‎And today we must never be silent while Palestinians are denied that same justice and legitimacy in this very hall.
Excellencies, to get it is warned the strong do what they can. The weak suffer what they must. We must reject this doctrine. The United Nations exist to reject this doctrine, we must stand for all the strong and the weak. Might cannot be right, right must be right.
‎Indonesia today is one of the largest contributors to United Peacekeeping Forces. We believe in the United Nations we will continue to serve where peace needs guardians, not with just words, but with boots on the ground.
‎If and when the United Nations Security Council and this great assembly decide, Indonesia is prepared to deploy 20,000 or even more of our sons and daughters to help secure peace in Gaza or elsewhere, in Ukraine, in Sudan, in Libya, everywhere when peace needs to be enforced, peace needs to be guarded, we are ready.
We will take our share of the burden, not only with our sons and daughters, we are also willing to contribute financially to support the great mission to achieve peace by the United Nations.
‎‎Madam President Excellencies,
‎I propose to this assembly a message of hope and optimism grounded in action and execution. Today we heard the speech of Madam President, the President of United Nations, General Assembly. Yes, it is true what she said, without the International Civil Aviation Organization. Will we be here today? Will we sit in this great hall without the United Nations? We cannot be safe. No country can feel secure. We need the United Nations and Indonesia will continue to support the United Nations, even though we still struggle, but we know the world needs a strong United Nations.
The world’s population is growing. Our planet is under strain. Food energy and water insecurity haunt many nations. We choose to answer these challenges directly at home and to help abroad wherever we can.
‎This year, Indonesia recorded the highest rice production and grain reserves in our history, we are now self sufficient in rice, and we are starting now to export rice to other nations in need, including providing Rice for Palestine.
‎We are building resilient food supply chains, strengthening farmer productivity, investing in climate, smart agriculture, to ensure food security for our children and for the children of the world.
‎We are confident in a few years time, Indonesia will be the greenery of the world as the world’s largest island state, we testify before you that we are already experiencing the direct consequences of climate change, particularly the threat of rising sea levels.
‎The sea level on the north coast of our capital city is increasing by five centimeters every year. Can you imagine in 10 years? Can you imagine in 20 years? For this, we are forced to build a giant sea wall, 480 kilometers in length. It will take us maybe 20 years. But we have no choice. We have to start now. Therefore we choose to confront climate change, not by slogans, but by immediate steps.
‎We are committed to meeting our 2015 Paris Agreement obligations. We aim to achieve net zero emission by 2060 and we are very confident we can achieve net zero emission much earlier.
‎We aim to reforest more than 12 million hectares of degraded forest, to reduce forest degradation, to empower local communities with quality Green Jobs for the Future. Indonesia is shifting decisively from fossil fuel based development towards renewable based development. From next year, most of our additional power generation capacity will come from renewables. Our goal is clear, to lift all of our citizens out of poverty and make Indonesia a hut for solutions to food, energy and water security.
Madam President Excellencies,
‎We live in a time when hatred and violence can seem to be the loudest voices, but beneath this loud noise lies a quieter truth that every person longs to be safe, to be respected, to be loved and to leave a better world to their children. Our children are watching. They are learning leadership, not from textbook, but from our choices.
‎Today, still a catastrophic situation in Gaza is unfolding before our eyes. At this very moment, the innocent are crying for help. Are crying to be saved. Who will save them? Who will save the innocent? Who will save the old and women. Millions are facing danger at this very moment as we sit here. They are facing trauma. They are facing irreparable damage to their bodies. They are dying of starvation.
‎Can we remain silent? Will there be no answer to their screams? Will we teach them that the human family can rise to the challenge?
‎Madam President, we must act now. Many speakers have saiimagin. We must stand for multilateral order, where peace, prosperity and progress are not the privilege of a few, but the right of all. With a strong united nations, we can build a world where the weak do not suffer what they must, but live the justice that they deserve.
‎Let us continue humanity’s great journey of ideals, the selfless aspirations that created the United Nations. Let us use science to uplift, not use science to destroy. Let rising nations help others to lift themselves. I am convinced that the leaders of the great world civilizations, civilizations of the west of the east, of the north, of the South, Leaders of America, Europe, of India, China, the Islamic world, the whole world, I am convinced they will rise to their role demanded by history.
We are all hopeful that the leaders of the world will show great statesmanship, great wisdom, restraint, humility, overcome hate, overcome suspicion.
‎‎Madam President, distinguished delegates, We are greatly heartened by the events of the last few days where significant leading countries of the world have chosen to side with history, to choose the right side of history, the path of the moral high ground, the path of rectitude, the path of justice, the path of humanity, to shun hatred, to overcome suspicion and to avoid the use of violence. The use of violence will be get violence. No one country can bully the whole community of the human family.
‎We may be weak individually, but the sense of oppression, the sense of injustice, has proven in the history of mankind that this sense of injustice, this sense of oppression, will unite into a strong force that will overcome this oppression, that will overcome this injustice.
‎To close, I would like to retreat again Indonesia’s complete support for the two state solution in Palestine.
‎We must have an independent Palestine, but we must also, we must also recognize, we must also respect, and we must also guarantee the safety and security of Israel. Only then we can have real peace, real peace and no longer hate and no longer suspicion. The only solution is this, two state solution, two descendants of Abraham must live in reconciliation, peace and harmony.
Arabs, Jews, Muslims, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, all religions, we must live as one human family. Indonesia is committed to being part of making this vision a reality. Is this a dream? Maybe, but this is the beautiful dream that we must work together towards. Let us work towards this noble goal. Let us continue humanity’s journey of hope, a journey started by our forefathers, a journey that we must complete.
‎Thank you”
