Hive Open Mic 135 Fight Oppression. : "Iwan Fals - "Bongkar" cover by 
Hi Hivers, how are you all? I'm sure we're all fine. My name is 
For this week's theme I have prepared a good song, a song related to the theme, namely the song called "Bongkar" this song was popularized by "Iwan fals".
Actions that are carried out by someone on the grounds of envy, hatred, anger towards other people accompanied by violence or arguments are called oppression.
Oppression itself is divided into two, namely:
Physical bullying that injures a person's body and results in injuries/injury and even bruising. While the other is Psychological Oppression, which affects people psychologically, so that it can cause pressure or trauma.
This evil treatment and abuse of power, often under the guise of governmental authority or cultural insults. This suppression can be done openly or covertly. Depends on how they run it.
We can fight against oppression in various ways, either by speaking out loud to tell the truth, or by not allowing the oppression to last long, as stated by William Faulkner, namely
"Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion for injustice and lies and greed. If people around the world would do this, it would change the earth."
Likewise as Albert Einstein said "The world will not be destroyed by those who commit evil, but by those who watch it do nothing."
Likewise, in line with the song I sing, this song tells about the feelings of the people who seem unable to deal with oppression from state officials. Moreover, the officials who sit in government seats cannot carry out their duties properly.
There are too many oppressions and arbitrariness that can't be mentioned one by one, causing the people to suffer.
Oppression and arbitrariness
Many more too many to mention
Hey stop stop it don't continue
We are fed up with uncertainty and greed
So, this is my interpretation for this week, with a song with the theme of asking for forgiveness, just like what the open mic community voiced this week, namely Forgiveness.
Happy listening.

Here are the full song lyrics.
Kalau cinta sudah di buang
Jangan harap keadilan akan datang
Kesedihan hanya tontonan
Bagi mereka yang di perbudak jabatan
(*) O, o, ya o ... Ya o ... Ya bongkar
O, o, ya o ... Ya o ... Ya bongkar
Sabar, sabar, sabar dan tunggu
Itu jawaban yang kami terima
Ternyata kita harus ke jalan
Robohkan setan yang berdiri mengangkang
Kembali ke : (*)
Penindasan serta kesewenang-wenangan
Banyak lagi teramat banyak untuk disebutkan
Hoi hentikan hentikan jangan di teruskan
Kami muak dengan ketidakpastian dan keserakahan
O, o, ya o ... Ya o ... Ya bongkar
O, o, ya o ... Ya o ... Ya bongkar
Di jalan kami sandarkan cita-cita
Sebab di rumah tak ada lagi yang bisa dipercaya
Orang tua pandanglah kami sebagai manusia
Kami bertanya tolong kau jawab dengan cinta

If love has been thrown away
Don't expect justice to come
Sadness is just a spectacle
For those who are enslaved to office
(*) O, o, yes o... Yes o... Yes unload
O, o, yes o... Yes o... Yes unload
Patience, patience, patience and waiting
That's the answer we received
Turns out we have to go
Knock down the demons that stand astride
Back to : (*)
Oppression and arbitrariness
Many more too many to mention
Hey stop stop it don't continue
We are sick of uncertainty and greed
O, o, yes o... Yes o... Yes unload
O, o, yes o... Yes o... Yes unload
On the road we lay our dreams
Because there's no one else to trust at home
Parents see us as humans
We ask you please answer with love
