The Jakarta Post should start building its website on the
World Wide Web. I do not see any reason for delay.
First, The Jakarta Post, like Kompas, belongs to the Gramedia
Group. Kompas already has its own homepage, as do the other two
English newspapers, The Indonesia Times and Indonesian Observer.
Their Uniform Resource Locater addresses, respectively, are
http://www.indocon.com/indotimes and
http://www.bb.bbg.co.id/observer/ind_obs.html.
By having a homepage, letters to the editor can be sent
through electronic mail, as could contributions from freelance
writers, especially those who domicile abroad. No retyping
needed. It saves a lot of time and energy.
Besides, articles from The Jakarta Post could be read and
accessed by millions of people all over the world.
So, why delay? I look forward to reading The Jakarta Post from
my computer, pasting articles to my word processor and sending
letters to the editor through electronic mail.
