Golkar's candidates in Makassar

MAKASSAR, South Sulawesi: Seven of 19 presidential hopefuls
vying for the Golkar party nomination, unveiled their vision and
mission in front of Golkar leaders in Makassar, South Sulawesi on
Monday.

The seven candidates were Akbar Tandjung, Gen. (ret) Wiranto,
Sri Sultan Hamengkubuwono X, Theo L. Sambuaga, Tuty Alawiyah,
Marwah Daud Ibrahim, and Rivai Siata.

During the event, Wiranto said Golkar should not be satisfied
with positive responses from the public over its convention
program, but must also be able to produce leaders with high
quality.

Meanwhile, Theo L. Sambuaga said the Golkar convention should
be able to produce leaders that were supported by the people as
part of the party's efforts to win the 2004 elections. --JP
