They were evicted and their ownership of<br>\ntheir land revoked even though the question of compensation had<br>\nnot been settled. That is a bad precedent for us,&quot; said Saiful<br>\nUmam, who chairs the Central Java Farmers Organization, which<br>\norganized the protest.<\/p>\n<p>He said the protesters were demanding the new decree be<br>\nrevised or revoked. --JP<\/p>",
