This is one of the President’s great visions. Of course, a big vision means big challenges. As a first step, several ministries that have not been too intensively involved in handling radicalism have begun to be encouraged to play a more active role. Deradicalization is one of the special tasks of Coordinating Political, Legal and Security Affairs Minister Mahfud MD.

The problem is, radicalism is not well understood by all parties, let alone have an agreement that is agreed upon. Radicalism frequently has multiple interpretations, and tends to be a "judgment" on others. It can also stir controversy. Some parties use the term radicalism, even though what is meant is terrorism. Others use the term radicalism to refer to problems of intolerance, anarchism and the rejection of Pancasila and the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI).
