Bantul regent

From Merdeka

We should sympathize with Bantul Regent Sri Roso Sudarmo, who had Rp 1 billion extorted from him by a psychic. The fact that he is not suing the psychic is laudable.

But it was a pity that the Ministry of Home Affair's inspector general and secretary-general accused the regent of doing something unconstitutional and tarnishing the reputation of the civil service.

We hail the steps taken by Minister of Home Affairs Yogie S. Memet, who warned the regent and instructed the governor of Yogyakarta to take similar action.
