Governor urged to return assets

MATARAM, West Nusa Tenggara: The chief of the provincial
prosecutor's office, R. Himawan, is calling on Governor Warsito
to stop the sale of his official Volvo sedan and the provincial
legislature's (DPRD) residence before the end of his term in
August.

"I implore Governor Warsito to be open-minded and thoroughly
consider the issue of his official Volvo sedan and the DPRD
residence," Himawan told journalists here yesterday.

With less than three months before he ends his tenure as
governor, the public has been focusing on Himawan's auctioning of
his sedan and the residence.

As reported by Antara, students have been protesting the
auction, which they say resulted in sales at below market prices.

Himawan said he was confident that Warsito would make the
right decision and return the "provincial assets" to the
administration.
