Kesowo turns back on reporters

JAKARTA: State Secretary/Cabinet Secretary Bambang Kesowo,
would rather blow raspberries than answering undesirable
questions, as he demonstrated to several journalists at the State
Palace on Thursday.

When asked whether he has received candidates for the
Indonesian Military chief from President Megawati Soekarnoputri,
Bambang, grim faced, answered only by blowing a raspberry as he
walked away from reporters.

Unlike the days when he was the secretary of then vice
president Megawati, Bambang has grown increasingly distant from
reporters.

He would simply answer questions by nodding or completely
disregarding questions aimed at him.

"If he doesn't want to answer, he could just say so," one
disgruntled reporter said.--JP
