\nwithout waiting for our formal letters,\" Soemarto said.<\/p>\n
He declined to mention their names, however, the Timor sedans
\nwere used by heads of the council's five commissions and four
\nfactions, while the three Corona sedans were used by deputies of

\nSinaga of Development Affairs Commission D, and Soeparmo of

\nSumekar K.W. of the armed forces (then known as ABRI) faction.<\/p>\n
The three deputy speakers were Sugeng Suprijatna, Rusjdi Hamka
\nand M. Ade Supriatna. Edy Waluyo of the ABRI faction was the
\ncouncil speaker.<\/p>\n
Outgoing councilors earlier asked the city administration to
\nhelp cover their debts, some of them ranging Rp 50 million
\n(US$6,700) to Rp 75 million, at city-owned Bank DKI.<\/p>\n
Governor Sutiyoso rejected the demand, saying that the request
