The central executive board of the Indonesian Muslim Student Movement (PMII) has expressed concern over a decline in intellectualism within student activism. Chairman Mohammad Shofiyulloh Cokro highlighted a worrying trend towards turbulence in intellectual discourse among students. The organization is calling for national unity to address this issue and restore intellectualism as a guiding force for the movement. PMII believes a renewed focus on critical thinking and reasoned debate is crucial for effective student advocacy. This appeal comes amid observations of increasing polarization and a potential weakening of intellectual foundations within student groups. The organization aims to revitalize intellectual engagement and promote constructive dialogue across the nation’s student population. They hope to steer the movement back towards thoughtful and impactful action.
