CGI slammed

The hypocrisy never ceases to amaze. The International NGO
Forum on Indonesian Development (INFID) and Vice President Hamzah
Haz have the unmitigated gall to complain that the Consultative
Group on Indonesia (CGI) has failed to address measures needed to
tackle the country's huge debt.

In fact, the CGI meeting emphasized strongly throughout that
the initiation of the debt was corruption and that the continuing
problem is still corruption.

The powers-to-be, still the powers that were, continue to wear
blinkers and deny the truth and steadfastly refuse to take
action, legal or otherwise, against those who were and are still
stealing from the people and the country. Either start filling up
the jails or shut up.
