Jakarta(29/08)-Coinciding with the launch of ""100 Days To Copenhagen"" countdown, three NGOs (Oxfam, WWF, and Green Peace South East Asia) held a demonstration on Saturday (29/08), at the Hotel Indonesia traffic circle, Central Jakarta.
The action is a tcktcktck campaign or in Indonesia, it's called ""Tik Tok Tik Tok."" It's a joint campaign which was launched in Asia Pacific and concentrated in Bangkok. It aims to urge world leaders to immediately make clear voice overcoming climate change.
Pictures of G8 (Group of 8) world leaders with their own country flags were displayed in the middle of the fountain pool of the Hotel Indonesia traffic circle. At the pool border, 23 environmental activists wearing white clothes stood in line making formation while carrying letters saying: “menunda berakibat bencana” (“delay kills”).

“Due to some reasons, we decided to carry the action in HI traffic circle. First, to grab much attention from public. Secondly we want to sychncronize with the message we aim to deliver, “sink or swim” meaning an urge to G8 world leaders who have power to make policy..We urge them to make fair and safe deal or we will sink because we’re running out of time. Delay kills,” said Rully Prayoga from Oxfam International for East Asia and Coordinator of the Global Campaign for Climate Action (GCCA) Indonesia.
Besides those 8 leaders, picture of the President of Republic of Indonesia Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono was also displayed. Arif Fiyanto, Climate and Energy Campaigner for Greenpeace South East Asia explained that SBY has very strategic position to make local and global policy that put environmental issues particularly climate change in front.
“We urge SBY to improve his performance in addressing climate crisis in Indonesia. SBY has to be able to be in the front line in making international commitment to overcome emission from deforestation and also reducing our dependence upon “brown energy” such as coal since it is a dominant global source of greenhouse gasses. We need to start promoting renewable energy that are more environmentally friendly,” Arif said.

While in the press release, Director of the Climate and Energy Program WWF-Indonesia, Fitrian Ardiansyah said,” In the 100 days remaining before the UNFCC (United Nations Framework Conventions on Climate Change) Conference in Copehnagen, we have to seize this opportunity to create jobs from renewable energy with a strong economic foundation through an ambitious, fair and binding climate change agreement for post 2012. In other words, for developed countries to agree to deeper emissions cuts of 40 % by 2020 compared to 1990 levels, as well as funding rapid response mechanism for adaptation measures in developing countries.”
