Disband IBRA<\/p>\n
From Koran Tempo<\/p>\n
After reading an article in the Jan. 11, 2002 edition of Koran
\nTempo titled Suspend the chairman of the Indonesian Bank
\nRestructuring Agency (IBRA), I can conclude that IBRA is a slick
\nden of corruption, collusion and nepotism (KKN). IBRA's
\nincredible costs, such as salary, facility and consultancy fees,
\nare higher than the state assets it can save. In other words,
\nIBRA provides no net benefit for the country or its people. IBRA
\nis merely useful as a source of KKN for its officers and
\ncollaborators.<\/p>\n
Therefore, I propose that IBRA should be disbanded now. Any
\nmatters outstanding between IBRA and conglomerates or debtors
\nshould be functionally returned to Bank Indonesia or the source
\nbanks, which have practiced KKN with the conglomerates and
\ndebtors.<\/p>\n
Accordingly, retrenchment can be achieved with the dissolution
\nof IBRA. Whether or not Bank Indonesia can succeed in resolving
\nthe outstanding debts is not a problem as no significant
\nresolution has been reached by IBRA. The continued existence of
\nIBRA is simply enriching certain officials from the agency, and
\nsome debtors.<\/p>\n
