In Indonesia, dialogue is crucial, it is an integral part of everyday life. Our program is to promote a dialogue on three levels: with religions, cultures and society. This results in three key words: respectively, inculturation, fraternity and development. There are many experiences in which this "triple dialogue" is fulfilled: for example, in solidarity with people affected by the eruption of the Merapi volcano, but also in meetings like those of today, inspired by the Spirit of Assisi. We are in communion with the Pope and the universal Church.

Who holds political and institutional office is called to serve the people and to promote the common good, beyond his personal religious beliefs or ethnicity. And citizens have to choose leaders for their skills, expertise, professionalism, not for religion.
