INDONESIA: The inauguration of members into the Papuan People's
Council (MRP) in the provincial capital of Jayapura has been
delayed for technical reasons, a senior Papuan councillor said on
Saturday.

The 42 elected MRP members should have been installed on
Saturday, but the inauguration ceremony has been postponed until
Monday because Minister of Home Affairs M. Ma'ruf had not signed
a letter approving the installment.

The minister had not signed the letter because he had not
received the curriculum vitae of the 42 MRP members, said Abdul
Hakim, chief of the MRP Special Committee that set up the
provincial council. -- JP
