JAKARTA: The House of Representatives formally appointed on
Tuesday Hartadi A. Sarwono as a new deputy governor of Bank
Indonesia, replacing Miranda S. Goeltom.

The appointment was made during a plenary session. Hartadi now
must wait for the Supreme Court's stamp of approval before
officially taking up the post.

House Commission IX for financial affairs elected Hartadi,
currently the central bank's chief representative to Tokyo, on
May 19. He beat out two other candidates, Bambang Sindu Wahyudi
and Siti C. Fadjriah, for the post.

Hartadi will hold the new job for a five-year term, filling a
post that has been vacant since May 17, when Miranda's term
ended. -- JP
