Guess what?

Indonesian Corruption Watch executive coordinator Teten
Masduki, who recently disclosed a case of alleged bribery
involving Attorney General Lt. Gen. Andi M. Ghalib, is not a
stranger to legal circles. He has worked with the Indonesian
Legal Aid Foundation for about a decade and is currently the head
of the foundation's labor division.

But what people may not know is that Teten is also a chemicals
expert who graduated from the Bandung Teachers Training
Institute.

"I should have been a teacher," Teten, 36, said. "But my
environment has shaped me as a person who has social concerns,
particularly about labor issues. Laborers are treated so poorly
despite their large contribution to the country."

Teten, born in Limbangan, Garut, West Java, said he received a
great deal of support from his family. However, Teten refused to
discuss his private life, including his wife and children.

"It is not relevant. There is no point (discussing it). What
is clear is that they support me," he said on Wednesday.

A look of caution and protectiveness came over his face when
asked about his family, which is understandable considering their
safety could be at risk as a result of his work. "I am devoted to
God," he said softly. (43)
