Akbar Tandjung should resign<\/p>\n
From Sinar Pagi<\/p>\n
The calls for Akbar Tandjung's resignation from his position
\nas Speaker of the House of Representative (DPR) have been
\nstrengthened by the decision to appoint him as a suspect in a
\ncorruption case wherein he is charged with abusing Rp 40 billion
\nin non-budgetary funds of the State Logistics Agency (Bulog).<\/p>\n
The latest calls for Akbar's resignation came from
\nchairpersons of the Golkar Group for Indonesia's Eastern Region
\nAA Baramuli and Mme Marwah Daud Ibrahim.<\/p>\n
I believe that Akbar is still morally upright as he can still
\naccept what is just and take criticism. I know Akbar personally.
\nHe is far from emotional.<\/p>\n
Akbar must be able to take the case as a lesson, consult his
\nfamily about the problem and fully concentrate on seeking facts
\nand legal data to prove him not guilty.<\/p>\n
As a normal human being he must be harmed by the case, but as
\na former chairman of the Islamic Student Association he must know
\nwell Yunus:57 of the Koran, which says: \"God has given lessons to
\nyou and remedies for diseases in your heart as well as directives
\nand mercy to the faithful believers.\"<\/p>\n
There is an organ in the human body -- if the organ is good,
\nthe whole body is good, but if it is bad, the whole body is also
\nbad. The organ is our heart.<\/p>\n
Akbar's case is a bitter lesson for Golkar. He must be
\nresponsible for his deeds. Therefore, I propose that Akbar
\nTandjung should resign and hope that he will be prevented from
\nlying.<\/p>\n
