Bob Nasution reelected

YOGYAKARTA (JP): Bob RE Nasution was reelected as chairman of
the Indonesia Motorsports Association (IMI) at the organization's
national congress at the Hotel Melia Purosani on Saturday
evening.

Eight candidates were named in the election but the congress
participants agreed that only Bob fulfilled the necessary
requirements to chair IMI.

Oky Harwanto and Helmy Sungkar, who were previously named as
candidates to be Bob's successor, failed to contest the former
attorney.

Oky only achieved two votes while Helmy was ousted in the
voting. Susilo Harahap, an official of IMI's South Sulawesi
chapter, got four votes while Dolly Indra Nasution, IMI's former
secretary general, earned two votes with four other candidates
earning one vote each.

"The congress agreed not to stage a plenary meeting after Pak
Bob ensured his willingness to be appointed as the chairman for
the 1999 to 2003 period," Nadjib M Saleh, the congress chairman,
told The Jakarta Post on Sunday.

Nadjib, who is also chairman of IMI's Yogyakarta chapter, said
the congress had appointed five officials to be included in the
organization.

They are John Lubis, an official of IMI's North Sumatra
chapter, Subli Sabran of IMI's East Kalimantan chapter, Susilo,
Yusuf representing former IMI officials and Bob. (44)
