So true..! Honestly I never heard the song before, until the DPR wanted to sue Slank.

This is something that everybody in this country knows:

“Mau tau gak mafia di senayan
Kerjanya tukang buat peraturan
Bikin UUD ujung-ujungnya duit”

The fact that there is a common mocking on UUD (supposedly Undang Undang Dasar or Constitution) as Ujung-Ujungnya Duit (it’s all about money) HAS IN FACT proven that Slank represents majority of the people’s opinion – and with the House being mad IS ridiculous.

My favorite Slank song (the harmonica lick is sexy), so it was quite a surprise when they wanted to sue the band because of the song. Come on, it’s not like it’s new.

Ah, DPR is over reacting by trying to sue Slank for their song. But, DPR cancel the plan, right?

And the fact that the DPR wanted to sue or even considered suing is undoubtedly a boon for album sales!

Crticism and media coverage broadens the audience and introduces people to the music of Slank who might have never heard it but for this song!

UUD — ujung ujung duit is an old joke and has done the rounds before! Perhaps the DPR dropped the plans to sue because after they took legal advice they realized that they would have to prove that there was no overlap between money and politics! The recent and not so recent scandals would suggest that the overlap is real and it is there…

The current Governor of Bank Indonesia is subject to an inquiry relating to just one such overlap!

a song of Slank (Gosip Jalanan) is telling about the reality not only DPR, but also DPRD.

slank is right. his song is true.
Mau tau gak mafia di senayan
Kerjanya tukang buat peraturan
Bikin UUD ujung-ujungnya duit

Pernahkah gak denger teriakan Allahu Akbar
Pake peci tapi kelakuan barbar
Ngerusakin bar orang ditampar-tampar

may be FPI and another muslim organization need to realize that what they do is wrong… not right to use mass power in a rough/ coarse way.
this country have police/army. we dont need you to kill or slap (tampar) poeple.
we need you to teach poeple about islam. that kind, gentle, have good reputation and full of love.

All slank’s song is real from the reality, the content so nature from what was happening in this country… and the rule in this country so weak… not stronger from the war victim.
I like this song.

I adore this song!

It’s so true and I give a lot of props and love to Slank for having the guts to pen it!
I’m not at all surprised that members of the DPR decided to sue..
Hey, if they win, they’re getting more money right?
(Because money from UUD obviously doesn’t suffice…)

The only reason (in my opinion) they decided not to go on with suing Slank was that they had a rare intelligent thought that told them that if they sue Slank they would prove the lyrics of ‘Gossip Jalanan’ right.
And so they crawled back into their little holes and brooded and cursed together.

MORE POWER TO SLANK!!!

(What the hell were they going on about? Schmerly, lend a hand to a poor old wong ndeso sing nggak iso mudheng)

Didn’t Pak Ahmad Sudarsono tell you. Sooner or later, he will come around.

Let’s not be too harsh on this fellow. Afterall he tried hard to assimilate.

@ schmerly [sic]

Yes and Yes, Good on ya!! Slank!!

@ AAB.. Do you write these ramblings when your drunk? because they’re not the sort of thing a sober person would normally write, unless of course your mentally retarded, which is it?

No need to be rude to people who are agreeing with you, if you cannot be civil, take that foul mouth and undersized brain off to some expat blog and discharge your bile there.

You are behaving just like a new recruit expat, demanding that and complaining about this – in fact I’d go as far as to say that you are an insult to buledom. People tend to judge new expats on the actions of existing expats, and notwithstanding that you are just a “213″ visitor, please have a care for those who may visit Indonesia and who are capable of carrying out a sensible dialogue.
Thanks.
