Habibie's promises

Now that he has sworn in his new old-face-dominated reform cabinet (The Jakarta Post, May 24), our new president must prove all his promises and commitments.

Many people think President B.J. Habibie is a clone of Soeharto, his long-time political guru. If his new cabinet makes no effort with the many reforms demanded by the people, his four- year term might be a "Soeharto without Soeharto reign".
