After the signing of the IMF's letter of intent with our government...Boom...fuel and other subsides are slashed, more and more people become impoverished......Indonesia explodes in violence -- May '98, $oeharto is forced to step down and hand over power to Hababi(e).

It's more than a year since this sauerkraut and Mozart lover (nothing wrong really) presides in office, corruption, collusion and cronyism are only getting worse. Jakarta seems to become more and more like Palermo in the 1970s -- gangsterism is all too rife.
Look at the unsolved Bank Bali scandal in which govt. officials and their cronies are implicated in a 960 billion Rupiah husmhmoney misadventure, simply to fund that loser Golkar party.

Let's just hope that PDI-P and PKB take over the Indonesian government next month and that the IMF will have no excuse to create more chaos in Indonesia by pretending to be concerned about the unsolved Bank Bali scandal which will be solved once this lousy government is replaced by honest and competent men.
