Devastated and depressed, she went to the house of her oldes
2007-01-15 04:42:02 Devastated and depressed, she went to the house of her oldest brother. She went to him in his mansion, carrying her little child and crying that her husband had divorced her. She didn't want anything from her brother but his help. She thought she could depend on his authority and influence to help her get a job.But her brother refused to interfere and confirmed to her in their conversation that he rejected the idea of her working as a maid. She said her brother was worried about idle gossip and his reputation. He asked her, "What do you think people will say about me?" His words echoed in her mind many times.After some time, he felt sympathy for her and began sending her money every now and then on the condition that she didn't do any work that would reflect unfavorably on his social positionThis lady's case is not an exceptional one; if it were, it would have been easy to deal with. There are unfortunately hundreds of women in similar situations. Her main desire was to be indepe... More About: House , Press , State , Esse , Stat
Confusion Over Indonesian Plane Crash
2007-01-04 10:33:06 Relatives waiting for news about a missing jetliner broke down in tears Tuesday after learning that senior Indonesia n officials erroneously reported the Boeing 737's charred wreckage had been found and that a dozen people may have survived.''Oh, what is happening to us?'' wailed Dorce Sundalangi, whose daughter was on the flight, after hearing the report was based on rumors from villagers that reached the highest levels of government.''They had given us hope of seeing our beloved relatives ... but it was false hope.''The Adam Air plane carrying 102 people sent out two distress signals in stormy weather Monday halfway through its two-hour journey from Indonesia's main island of Java to Manado, on the northern tip of Sulawesi, one of the largest islands in the sprawling archipelago.Three of those aboard were American citizens, the U.S. Embassy said.

Saddam At The End Of A Rope
2007-01-03 22:32:04 It was symbolic that 2006 ended with a colonial hanging--- most of it (bar the last moments) shown on state television in occupied Iraq. It has been that sort of year in the Arab world. After a trial so blatantly rigged that even Human Rights Watch---the largest single unit of the US Human Rights industry--- had to condemn it as a total travesty. Judges were changed on Washington's orders; defense lawyers were killed and the whole procedure resembled a well-orchestrated lynch mob. Where Nuremberg was a more dignified application of victor's justice, Saddam 's trial has, till now, been the crudest and most grotesque.The Great Thinker President's reference to it 'as a milestone on the road to Iraqi democracy' as clear an indication as any that Washington pressed the trigger.The contemptible leaders of the European Union, supposedly hostile to capital punishment, were silent, as usual. And while some Shia factions celebrated in Baghdad, the figures published by a fairly independen... More About: Rope
Jakarta Airport Debuts Iris Scan
2006-12-26 22:26:04 Jakarta's busy international airport introduced an iris scanner system aimed at business travellers willing to pay around $US200 ($A255) per year to avoid long immigration lines.Under the ''Saphire'' program, frequent flyers register with the immigration authorities, pay the annual fee, and submit to scans of their left and right eyes, which authorities say are as individual as prints of the fingers or palm. On arrival, users scan one eye and are cleared for entry, a process expected to take about 10 seconds.The Indonesian-Dutch venture behind the project says the main thrust of the program was one of convenience, although they hoped that speeding through registered users would allow the authorities more time to scrutinise other travellers for possible security threats. Australian and US authorities sounded warnings this week of possible attacks on Western targets in Indonesia over the Christmas and New Year period.The country has been relatively calm lately, with no major atta...

Despite the bombing : Indonesia's progress will continue
2006-12-20 10:22:04 'This country," my Indo nesia n host said to me, "is a gold mine in a mine field. Avoid the mines and you will reap the reward." Just days later, one of those mines exploded down the street ã at the Marriott Hotel in the terrorist attack Tuesday that killed at least 10 people and wounded more than 150.Can the Indonesia government navigate the dangerous terrain ahead and prevail against the Islamic extremists within Indonesian society? Will Indonesia ã and the world ã reap the rewards that would follow if the country with the largest Muslim population succeeds in its bold experiment in democracy?My discussions with political, economic and military leaders shortly before the attack suggest that while many land mines litter the landscape, the gold mine of a peaceful, prosperous Indonesia is closer than many Western observers believe.To be sure, the capital has been on high alert since Islamic terrorists killed more than 200 people in Bali last October.

"Kompas Daily" fires journalist-cum- union-leader for refusi
2006-12-13 10:16:02 The Alliance of Independent Journal ists (AJI) protests the dismissal of senior journalist Bambang Wisudo from "Kompas Daily " on 8 December 2006 and the intimidating manner in which it was done. Bambang, who is also secretary of the Kompas Trade Union , has worked for the Jakarta-based newspaper for 15 years.He was purportedly dismissed for refusing to be reassigned to Ambon, in the Maluku Province, 2,300km east of Jakarta.However, AJI said that Wisudo's reassignment was prompted by his efforts to improve the union's reportage standards and address policies instituted by the newspaper's management seen to be disruptive to workforce productivity and the readers. AJI strongly condemns the atmosphere of intimidation created by the "Kompas Daily" management when the company's security personnel forcefully removed Bambang from the office and detained him against his will for several hours in a holding cell. Bambang was only released upon being delivered a dismissal letter signed by Ed... More About: List , Fire
Playboy Indonesia's editor-in-chief faces charges
2006-12-08 04:12:01 The editor-in-chief of Play boy Indonesia went on trial on Thursday on charges of publishing indecent material.The legal move was cheered by religious groups in the predominantly Muslim country.A prosecutor told the South Jakarta District Court that Erwin Arnada oversaw photo shoots and selected revealing pictures of female models in underwear, some showing partially exposed breasts."The models also had inviting expressions on their faces," said Resni Muchtar, calling for the maximum sentence of 32 months in prison.Indonesia is a secular nation with more Muslims than any other in the world, some 190 million.But most practice a moderate form of the faith, due in part to Hindu, Buddhist and animist beliefs that held sway long before traders brought Islam to its shores in the 14th Century. Fundamentalists, taking cues from the Middle East, have been pushing hard to change that.When the toned-down version of Playboy Indonesia first hit the streets in April amid a blaze of publicity, they...

2006-12-07 16:11:05 INDONESIA is grappling with its first real political sex scandal - a widely circulated video of one of its most powerful politicians in a hotel room with a popular singer. Politicians have taken care to keep their lives private in this predominantly Islamic country. Many have playboy reputations but none has been caught on tape. The politician, Yahya Zaini, is parliamentary secretary of the Golkar Party, the biggest in Indonesia, and head of its religious affairs committee, which has responsibility for moral issues.Vice-President and Golkar Party chief Jusuf Kalla said the tape must be verified. "The woman in the video could be his wife, who knows? If that is the case, the one distributing the video must be held responsible, " he said. Mr Zaini, who is married, flew back from a parliamentary study tour in Australia at the weekend, as news of the tape spread. He is in hiding in Jakarta.The singer, Maria Eva, admitted making the tape, but denied distributing it. During a tearful press... More About: Political , Scandal , Politica , Real , Anda
EU lawmakers warn Indonesia local Islamic laws may hurt inte
2006-12-02 16:07:03 European legislators warned Monday that Islam ic-based laws limiting the rights of women in some part of Indonesia could scare off investors and damage international relations.Indonesia is a secular, democratic state. In recent years, so-called bylaws have been adopted in one province and some districts implementing conservative views. Some fear the change could pressure the central government to follow.German lawmaker Hartmut Nassauer, speaking at the end of a five-day visit by European politicians to southeast Asia, said that while Indonesia is a democracy, the passing of Shariah, or Islamic law, "could burden international relationships. ""If a state introduces religious laws it automatically separates itself from other states where we are free to practice faith, but not obliged to," he said, speaking on behalf of a group of nine lawmakers."Such a development has an impact on relationships with other countries," he said, referring to European economic interests in Indonesia.Around...

What Happen in West Papua
2006-12-02 16:07:03 "Of course the police are just as good at torturing as the army. Some of the cruder forms [include] putting a table leg onto the foot of somebody and then somebody heavily dancing on the table, which can be extremely painful. So, I mean torture is routine."Carmel Budiardjo was in Victoria recently to speak about the little known tragedy unfolding in West Papua . In spite of harsh measures by Indonesian authorities to subdue the island's indigenous peoples, they continue to cling to the dream of self-determination.The dense tropical rainforests and towering mountain ranges of West Papua are home to more than 300 distinct tribes, including some uncontacted peoples. Located 250 km north of Australia, and bordered by the independent nation of Papua New Guinea, the island as a whole contains the second largest rainforest in the world outside of the Amazon. Forty-three years ago, West Papua was annexed by Indonesia. Since that time, large-scale military operations, massacres, land seizure... More About: What , Hat
What Happened Bush Visit To Indonesia
2006-12-02 16:07:03 US President George W Bush has come and gone for his quickie summit with Indo nesia n President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, leaving his hosts to pick up the bill and the pieces. Local authorities released an estimate of Rp6 billion (US$660,000) for security costs of the visit, which included a 2-kilometer security cordon around Bogor's Presidential Palace, 8,000 police officers, school and business closures, and the shutdown of mobile-phone networks. That figure doesn't nearly capture the visit's true costs, however. At the famed Bogor Botanical Gardens, world leaders from Belgium's King Leopold to North Korea's Great Leader Kim Il-sung to Cambodia's Prime Minister Hun Sen have enjoyed the flora and planted trees to leave behind something of value from their stay. Bush, on the other hand, leaves behind a pair of helipads that required the relocation of a rare lotus from its pond.

Private firms attack labor export reforms
2006-12-02 16:07:03 Private labor exporters are unhappy with a new government policy that requires the businesses to have a minimum capital of Rp 3 billion and pay a Rp 500 million deposit to the government. The Indonesian Labor Expo rters Association (Apjati) and the Indonesian Manpower Development Association (Idea) say the new ministerial decree is confusing and contains red tape that targets prospective migrant workers. Apjati chairman Husein Alaydrus said that under the decree, only a few major companies would survive because they would still be able to run branch offices in the regions, training centers with qualified instructors and a wide network including foreign partners. "It would require a company to have a lot of money to be as professional as the government requires," Alaydrus said in a recent meeting with Manpower and Transmigration Minister Erman Suparno.

Sen. Kerry did so yesterday," said Snow, appearing the day after President Bush and Kerry traded their harshest accusations since the 2004 presidential race.

Crossing the line between law enforcement and rights abuses
2006-12-02 16:07:03 What is the line between law enforcement and torture? This is basically the current debate between relatives, lawyers, priests, friends and supporters of the three Flores villagers, Tibo, Riwu and da Silva, who were executed last Thursday at midnight, and the Indonesian authorities. More specifically this is a question for those defending the human and legal rights of the Flores trio and the Indonesian Police, whose Mobile Brigade (Brimob) members carried out the execution.The state had insisted on taking over the burial of the deceased in secrecy, without involving their families, who were not allowed to pay their last respects properly, with the proper religious rites. This violation of Law No. 2/1964 which stipulates the procedures for carrying out the death penalty triggered the mass protests in Atambua, West Timor and Maumere, Flores, apart from the fact that they were wrongly sentenced by the Indonesian judiciary in the first place.
