Kota Baru project

From Bisnis Indonesia

The House of Representatives (DPR) has reportedly summoned the
eldest son of President Megawati Soekarnoputri for questioning.
The questioning is over an agreement he reached with businessmen
from China for the development of 312,983 m2 of land in Kota
Baru, Kemayoran, Jakarta.

As the land belongs to the State Secretariat, according to the
report, the House must give this matter proper attention. But why
is the case, still in its early days, being questioned? If the
agreement was transparent and profitable to the state, what's
wrong?

The respectable members of the House should first investigate
to what extent, if any, the case involved corruption, collusion
and nepotism, as well as the possible abuse of the presidential
office and facilities.
