Hamzah says he is mere 'security guard'

BATAM: Hamzah Haz, leader of the United Development Party (PPP),
complained on Wednesday that he had only been a "security guard"
as vice president in the Megawati Soekarnoputri regime.

"I'm like a security guard who is tasked only with observing
and overseeing the running of the (Megawati) government, while at
the same time, I cannot do anything to bring the government on
track," he addressed a crowd of PPP supporters in Sengkuang,
Batam.

Hamzah asked supporters and the people of Batam to vote for
the PPP in order to enable the party to gain majority votes in
the upcoming election and so be able to govern the country.

He promised to build a prosperous Indonesia once the PPP won
the election and he was elected president of Indonesia. -- JP
