PADANG, West Sumatra: The Masyarakat Profesional Madani (MPM)
bestowed on Wednesday its Anti-Graft Fighter Award 2004 to
justice Bustami Nusyirwan for fighting corruption in West Sumatra
province.

Bustami, president of the Padang District Court, was awarded
for his courage in sentencing 43 West Sumatra provincial
councillors to jail for corruption.

The MPM was established last year in Jakarta by 15
professionals, including economist Anggito Abimanyu and
television presenter Ira Koesno. Last year, the award went to
economist Faisal Basri. -- JP
