How elegant, Ibu Mega

From Media Indonesia

As an Indonesian woman, I feel proud of the election of Ibu Megawati as the first female to occupy the presidency. I know some people, especially some Muslims, are against female presidents.

I suggest, therefore, that Bu Megawati please these people by:

* avoiding cheek-to-cheek greetings with men other than her husband or who are not her male relatives as this is risky.

* dressing in Muslim-style clothes. You look very elegant in the kebaya (traditional blouse), which could be made into a Muslim style.
