SINOPSIS “ATJEH LON SAYANG”:
# My beloved Aceh# Land of Aceh# My beloved land# The land of my birth and my death# The land of ancestor and forefathers’ legacy
# The vast area of fields# The matters of life have been arranged# There’s consolation for death# Grief felt as gladness# I love Aceh until I die(Traditional song of Acehnese: “Tanoh Lon Sayang”
The earthquake and tsunami on 26 December 2004 destroyed about 60 km coastal area of Nangroe Aceh Darussalam. Approximately 150.000 people died as martyrs , hundreds of children become orphans, sheltered at different refugee camps
“Atjeh Lon Sayang” describes the condition in Banda Aceh and surroundings, 3 months after the earthquake and tsunami disaster. Munawar tells the moments when tsunami occurred, “That day, I was reciting the Holy Qur’an. I saw people running. ‘What happens?
They said, ‘Tide, tidewater!” But I said to myself , ‘Where is the tide?’
However more people running. I also ran toward the mosque. At that time, the tide wasn’t very high. I went back to find my mother. I saw houses and coconut palms capsized, corpses, flying boards, everything. There were bodies pinned by house, bodies without heads. I also saw people crying, relatives and mothers crying. Afterwards I saw people went up to the mosque to pray.
At the mosque, someone said to me, ‘ Don’t cry, it’s a test from Allah.’”
Munawar with 150 children of disaster victims are now in the care of Tengku Abdul Razak at Dayah Daruz Zahiddin, Aceh Besar. They are still struggling to overcome the trauma with different kinds of activities at Dayah indefinitely.
“When they came, their mental condition and attitude was rather uncommon compared to other children. They aren’t as cheerful as others. Children usually occupy themselves with playing. But those children, the same as other tsunami victims, seem to be under restraint. Whereas here, in fact they are free to do whatever they want. The grief controls their soul. They don’t show the conduct of children in general,” said Tengku Abdul Razak.
A group of artists wanders through refugee camps offering ubat ate (heart remedy). And, a young artist reveals his anxiety of Aceh
condition before and after the disaster, “Aceh is never free from conflict. There’s always chaotic situation. Constant fighting. Maybe it’s due to the role of Snock Houngranje who left behind devide et impera, politic of dissention. Within Aceh society, I feel there are seeds of hate, not only between Aceh and Indonesia, but also among Aceh people themselves.
We see trauma that’s continually awakened. There’s fear that we don’t know how to handle it, terror that we don’t know how to overcome it. I see the society becomes ignorant, bored with the condition of life. When the tsunami hit cities and destroyed villages, then I realized that the disaster failed to bring changes to the society,” Tengku Reza Indria explained.
Actually, “Atjeh Lon Sayang” tells spirit of Aceh’s people with some cases. Munawar is one of them who still build his spirit to recover hisself. Tengku Abdul Razak is one of them who still care and spread his spirit to anybody. Tengku Reza Indria is one of them who still believe that they should change their mind.
