Executives join golf tourney

JAKARTA (JP): At least 160 business executives and government officials are expected to join a golf tournament at the Bumi Serpong Damai golf course in Tangerang, West Java, tomorrow.

The tournament, held by the daily Bisnis Indonesia in conjunction with its 10th anniversary, is offering the golfers two luxurious cars for a hole-in-one stroke at the seventh and 14th holes.

The general manager of the daily, Sukamdani Sahid Gitosardjono, said yesterday that only one person has won the special prize since the tournament was initiated in 1989. Krisnaraga Sarfuan, a Bank Nusa director, shot a hole-in-one in 1990.

Minister of Transmigration Siswono Yudohusodo and Minister of Youth Affairs and Sports Hayono Isman are scheduled to tee off the tournament. (amd)
