IMGI 'graduates' face oral test

JAKARTA: The National Police said on Tuesday they would
question 15 degree recipients from the Institut Manajemen Global
Indonesia (IMGI) on Wednesday following the arrest of 12
administrators of the unlicensed education institute.

However, National Police spokesman Sr. Comr. Saud Usman
Nasution declined to name those that will be quizzed, although it
is known that some of the "grads" included a former vice
president, former ministers, clerics and a number of retired
police officers.

Those found to have used their fake degrees to secure
positions or jobs, could be sentenced to up to five years in
prison based on the National Education Law, he added.

Based on data from the Directorate General for Higher
Education at the Ministry for National Education, Saud said, it
was very clear that the IMGI was not authorized to issue any kind
of degree. --JP
