As we all know, Lady Gaga management finally canceled concerts in Indonesia due to security factors caused by the insistence of the police and various community organizations hardline Islamists who reject the concert Lady Gaga - because they can damage the morale of the nation.
Now that the debate is over, time for us to assess some of the impacts that have occurred and will occur:
Promoters difficult to get the trust of foreign musicians and bandsLady Gaga concert cancellation will make foreign musicians and bands to think twice before a concert in Indonesia. Proposals for a concert of local promoters to the booking agent (third party between the promoter and artist management to accommodate the requests of both parties) are likely to be tough.
So far this has been a popular singer is currently abroad ensured canceled concerts in Indonesia for post-Gaga. And maybe there will be more cases like this in the future.
Security issues in Indonesia again emerged in the internationalNews of the cancellation of the concert Lady Gaga has made international news in a short time. Major media such as Time, BBC, Wall Street Journal by legendary music tabloid NME has to load the news.
In recent years, security issues in Indonesia, which had become an international public concern eventually disappear slowly but surely. The result is a lot of musicians and bands who will perform a concert in Indonesia. In the early half of 2012 it had recorded dozens of musicians and bands that have been performed abroad. And because of this Lady Gaga concert cancellation, Indonesia such as return to zero. Must rebuild international confidence.
The growing apathy of the people against the government of Indonesia IndonesiaLady Gaga concert cancellation also proves the weakness of the police and the government. Voices of resistance from hardline Islamic organizations should be able to anticipate the government to not prolonged. But the government is on auto pilot, chose silence and even subjected to the interests of certain groups. Happens, people will tend to be apathetic and performance would no longer trust the government.
Canadian author, Irshad Manji, who recently exposed incidents of the dissolution of the discussion of his latest book, "God, Liberty & Love" by the hardline Islamic organizations in Yogyakarta, spoke to the BBC that many people of Indonesia who confessed to him, was not able to report acts of intimidation and physical threats because no one can deal with such threats in the highest level.
