Council moves on without chairman

BANDAR LAMPUNG, Lampung: The Lampung Legislative Council
continues to work as usual even though it has been without a
leader following the vote of no confidence against its chairwoman
Srie Atidah last month, according to deputy chairman Azib Zanim
on Wednesday.

Azib told Antara that the council was still waiting for an
approval from the Ministry of Home Affairs in Jakarta for the
election of Abbas Hadisunyoto as the new chairman.

In the meantime, the council is being led by its three
deputies, including Azib.

Srie, who is from the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle
(PDI Perjuangan) was removed following a vote of no confidence
over her leadership. Abbas is also from the same party. (04)
