What she meant was that the bureaucracy <br>\nis not capable of carrying out public policy and lacks <br>\ncoordination. I think the President also realizes that the <br>\nbureaucracy lacks more than just professionalism. It is a public <br>\nsecret that all branches of the government, the executive, <br>\nlegislative and judiciary, are corrupt.<\/p>\n<p>Tempo of Nov. 25 and Dec. 1 reported a statement of President <br>\nMegawati that she will not replace Attorney General M. A. Rachman <br>\ndespite the fact that legal action is still taking place in <br>\nconnection with a luxury house owned by the attorney general that <br>\nhe failed to report to the Public Servants&apos; Wealth Audit <br>\nCommission (KPKPN).<\/p>\n<p>The President&apos;s reason for maintaining the attorney general  <br>\nis because she is not sure that there is a better candidate to <br>\nreplace M. A. Rachman.<\/p>\n<p>Tempo also quoted the President as saying: &quot;If I must replace <br>\nthe Attorney General only because of a house, I am afraid I will <br>\nhave to replace all the ministers&quot;. Does the President mean to <br>\nsay that all ministers are as problematic as the attorney <br>\ngeneral?<\/p>\n<p>If the Tempo quotation is accurate, the Indonesian people can <br>\ndo nothing but sigh and say how unlucky this country and its 200 <br>\nmillion inhabitants are.<\/p>\n<p>If there is no one qualified to take the position of attorney <br>\ngeneral, are there people eligible to fill even higher positions? <br>\nIs the 2004 general election still necessary? Let us hope that M. <br>\nA. Rachman can eradicate corruption, collusion and nepotism <br>\nbefore his retirement. Otherwise the waste basket will become <br>\nbigger and bigger.<\/p>\n<p>CORNELIS A.
