D1S4J 4.1.2. Prabowo’s Argument Structures
4.1.2.1 Claim-Ground
In the second segment of the 1
st
debate, Prabowo answered a question about what his special plans to fix corruption in Indonesia. Prabowo started with a claim where
he claimed that corruption happened because government officials were afraid of the future, the pension. Claim is a motive of argument that is arguable. In this
argument, the claim is signed by the word “artinya”. Prabowo’s claim concerning to that case is argueable. Why did he say such claim? It is because he had his
estimation of the government official s’ salaries which are not enough to fund their
campaign expenses see ground below. Artinya korupsi terjadi di Indonesia karena para pejabatnya
berkuasa takut, takut masa depan, takut pensiun. [It means that corruption occurs in Indonesia because the
officials who are in power are afraid, afraid of the future, afraid of retirement.]
Claim
Gaji bupati umpamanya adalah sekitar 6-7 juta rupiah padahal dia kampanye, dia ikut kampanye langsung. Dia habis 15 milyar,
ya kan? Demikian dimana-mana, akibatnya –e- dia akan ambil
dari APBD sama menteri-menteri juga begitu. Kalau tidak salah menteri mungkin itu gajinya sekitar 18 juta rupiah padahal
tanggung jawab yang dikelola sangat besar.
[Salary of governor, for example, is around 6-7 million. Meanwhile, he caimpaigns, he join a direct campaign. He spends
15 billion, right? Thus everywhere, consequently -e- he will take from APBD regency budget so do the ministers. If I am not
Ground
mistaken minister’s salary is about 18 million whereas their responsibility they are running are very big.]
D1S2P Prabowo asserted that he and Hattarajasa needed to fight corruption to be a
respected nation. It is classified as claim because it is the motive of his argument. Prabowo did not provide any evidence about the wealth that was taken by other
countries, but he supported the claim by stating that “karena justru kita menjadi
negara yang menguasai kekayaan kita sendiri” [we will become a country that control own wealth]. It is the result reason why Prabowo and Hattarajasa need to
fight corruption. It is signed by conjunction ‘sehingga’. Itu tekad Prabowo Subiyanto Hatta Rajasa dan seluruh koalisi
merah putih, kami akan bekerja keras sekeras-kerasnya untuk melakukan itu memberantas korupsi
[That is Prabowo Subiyanto-Hatta Rajasa
’s determination and the whole red and white coalition, we will work hard to do it
to combat corruption] Claim
sehingga penghasilan seluruh bangsa Indonesia akan naik, kita akan menjadi negara kuat, kita akan menjadi negara
terhormat karena justru kita menjadi negara yang menguasai kekayaan kita sendiri.
[thereby the earning of the entire Indonesian will rise, we will become a strong country, we will become a respected country
because actually we become the master of our own wealth.] Ground
