Jambi teachers to get trip to Thailand

JAMBI: More than 100 subdistrict heads in Bungo regency, Jambi
province, are scheduled to go to Thailand for a comparative
study.

Zardianto, the head of the administrative section at the Jambi
Immigration Office, said the planned trip was made public after
more than 100 subdistrict heads descended on the office to apply
for passports.

"All of them said they were going to Thailand for a
comparative study," he said on Friday.

The subdistrict heads began arriving at the immigration office
four days ago. Zardianto said their passports would be completed
soon.

Zardianto refused to speculate on whether the trip was being
paid for by a certain political party, with the subdistrict heads
in return being required to mobilize the people in their
subdistricts to vote for the party in the April 5 general
election. -- Antara
