ABRI appeals for new recruits

JAKARTA (JP): The Armed Forces (ABRI) Headquarters is inviting university graduates and holders of three-year university diplomas to join its education program for officers, spokesman for the Jakarta Military Command DJ. Nachrowi said yesterday.

He said that those passing the program would be career officers and begin with the rank of Second Lieutenant.

"Their career development will be the same as those who have graduated from the ABRI Academy; they can reach high ranks and stay in ABRI until retirement age," he said.
