Responding to the issue, Army Strategic Command (Pangkostrad) chief Lieut. Gen. Dudung Abdurachman denied the allegation that the TNI was now infiltrated by the communist ideology. He said the statues were removed at the request of former Pangkostrad chief Lieut. Gen. Azym Yusri Nasution, who commissioned the statues during his years in office in 2011-2012. The former Pangkostrad chief’s current religious beliefs mean he is now uncomfortable with such images.
“I appreciate his personal feelings, that his current religious beliefs mean that he is remorseful for having commissioned the statues. So I could not refuse his request,” Dudung said in a press release on Tuesday. Dudung met with Azmyn on Aug. 30 and the statues were then removed immediately. Dudung denied that the removal was motivated by a communist agenda.
The removed statues were of military figures Lieut. Gen. Sarwo Edhie Wibowo, Gen. AH Nasution, and Maj. Gen. and former president Soeharto.
