Those history research are meaningless. It can't solve seriouse real-life risk. I ask your question because I want you to find actual solution, not complain their crimes or have to ask for an apology. The real visible benefits are more important, and that will be precondition for the future.
i now am very confused to what is it that you're trying to ask??
in 1998 there was a huge movement. 1000s of students and mass are create a huge protest against suharto regime (the goverment) for failing to face the 1998 economic crisis. at time indonesians are releasing their frustration, their energy, their, focus toward the gov.
since the regime was f*up in the first place, and the mass grown so big that the army could no longer control them, to maintain their positions the regime at time "moved", as in divert, these mobs using provocateurs to release their frustration, energy, and focus away from the regime to something else. thus the riot occur.
so your first question was
"Why turn to anti-Chinese riots is a solution?"
so i answer
"the answer was already written there (on my first post)."
and then you said
"You still have not answered my question.
Why turn to anti-Chinese riots is a solution? Not the solution turning to anti-native Indonesian, anti-Indian, anti-Malay, anti-Dutch, anti-whoever?"
so i quote the line that answer your question
which basically says that there was already a "rift" between indonesian tionghoa's and others in the first place. a "rift generated by the gov. it's these weakness that the regime exploit to start the riot. basically because the weakness is there...These actions by no means created anti-Chinese prejudice out of thin air. A long historical legacy of active construction of ethnic cleavages by Dutch colonial authorities and then by both the Sukarno and Suharto regimes, along with a seriously skewed concentration of capital in the ethnic Chinese commercial community in most major Indonesian cities, generated a sense among pribumi Indonesians of economic favoritism toward the Chinese.
and somehow that still not answer you first question? o_0'
you never ask me to give a suggestion on how to make sure that such even never happen in the future in your previous post...
and my first post actually give you the base on what to do... if prejudice, economical-social "rift", and favoritism is what the weakness that these regime exploit to start that riot, then to make sure that such riot would never occur in the future then remove them... educate the society, remove that gov favoritism and so on and so on... and obviously educate the mass not to get easily provoked and also don't provoke others. create a better bill and law, have a better political system... basically the things that indonesian has been doing since reformation...
ps: am not entirely sure why you said that historical research are meaningless, because as you can see here people learn from history to make a better future
