A simple question crossed my mind: Can Indonesia afford to pay back the loan, when and by whom? As a taxpayer, I never feel the benefit of IMF aid. On the other hand, there will be more economic chaos ahead. Remember, Indonesia's foreign debts have grown to US$150 billion and there is no one to blame for such a huge debt.",
