Listen to the market<\/p>\n
President Abdurrahman Wahid, this time, is in no hurry to
\nannounce his new Cabinet. He has listened to Vice President
\nMegawati Soekarnoputri, who advised him to select his ministers
\ncarefully so as to prevent change midway. We agree that forming
\nthe new Cabinet must be done with patience and care, not only
\nbecause it must consist of personalities who are capable and are
\nable to work as a team, but because it must also have ministers
\nwho are trusted by the market.<\/p>\n
Market confidence, indeed, is one of the qualities that was
\nnot considered in the formation of the current Cabinet. President
\nAbdurrahman Wahid often acted without even considering the
\nreactions of the market. Now, however, the President has come to
\nrecognize that market confidence is a factor of decisive
\nimportance in our efforts to overcome the economic crisis.<\/p>\n
Winning the market's confidence has, thus, become the most
\nimportant factor in forming the new Cabinet. What are the main
\nrequirements to achieve this? Among other things, the market only
\ntrusts those ministers whose reputation is known, especially
\ntheir reputation with regard to the management of assets. The
\nmarket only trusts Cabinet ministers who keep their promises, who
\nare true to their word and who are willing to take risks and are
\nnot afraid of losing their jobs. For those reasons, we would
\nsuggest that President Abdurrahman Wahid consider reappointing
\nKwik Kian Gie, if the market trusts him.<\/p>\n
