ABRI, BIA and the Police

The Police, ABRI (Indonesian Armed Forces) and the Indonesian intelligence BIA boast that each was the best in handling the rioters that were creating disturbance across the nation then. The government felt the need to conduct a test regarding this matter. So they release a rabbit into the forest and the three groups are instructed to catch it.

The BIA enters the forest. They place informants on every corner of the forest. They question every tree, grass, bushes and animal in that forest. None in the forest escape interrogation. After one month of thorough investigation the BIA conclude that the rabbit never exists and is only a rumor.

ABRI enters the forest. After a month of fruitless search, they lose their patience and set fire to the forest, killing every living thing in it. At last they find the rabbit, in a charred condition (what do you expect??)

The Police enter the forest. Two hours later, they emerge from the forest carrying a white mouse that has been badly beaten up. The mouse shouts, “YES… YES… I CONFESS! I AM A RABBIT! I AM A RABBIT!”
