"if Starbucks is just doing business, of course, but don't bring ideology here." Anwar Abbas, a member of the Central Council of Muhammad, Indonesia's second largest Muslim organization, said in an interview with Reuters on July 1.
In 2013, Starbucks Chairman Schultz expressed support for same-sex marriage, and the Independent reported that Abbas recently learned of the comments in a chat group and decided to boycott Starbucks. Abbas believes that Starbucks' business philosophy and values are not in line with Indonesian national values, and he called on the Indonesian government to consider revoking Starbucks' business license in Indonesia.
According to Indonesia's "Diandian.com" report, in addition to advising the Indonesian government to take administrative measures, Abbas also called on Indonesians to boycott Starbucks, saying that Starbucks' pro-gay stance has the potential to undermine Indonesia's "religious and cultural" core. Indonesia's Republic Daily reported on the 1st that in addition to Abbas, Asru Tanjung, chairman of Indonesia's semi-official Economic Committee of the Indonesian Council of Islamic clergy, also said that Schultz's attitude towards homosexuality will hurt Starbucks' operations in Indonesia, because most of Indonesia's residents are Muslims, and if Starbucks is boycotted by all Indonesian Muslims, it may lead to Starbucks closure and withdrawal from the Indonesian market. He also called on Indonesian Muslim businessmen to be ready to replace Starbucks.
However, some of the more enlightened Indonesian netizens disagreed with the proposal, which is based on conservative religious ideas. One Starbucks customer, who is a Muslim, said she would not stop going to the store to buy coffee because of calls for a boycott. Some netizens also believe that if the reason for the boycott is pro-gay speech, then the scope of the boycott should not be limited to Starbucks, because according to the Huffin Post, as many as 27 well-known companies in the United States openly support homosexuality, including companies such as Microsoft and Apple; if homosexuality is resisted according to religious beliefs, people should also boycott the use of Microsoft operating system and refuse to buy iPhones.
