Shihab has explained the conflict in these terms to foreign diplomats: “The conflict in Maluku is basically not a religious conflict. It is more of an inter-communal conflict driven by local economic disparities, instigated by certain forces bent on destabilizing the country. Jakarta, 7 July The “destabilizing forces argument is commonly put forward by the political élite in Jakarta, including members of the Cabinet. The most recent former Minister for Defence has blamed forces loyal to former President Soeharto, while press sources blame former Habibie Cabinet minister, Adi Sasono.
