JAKARTA: The National Resilience Institute (Lemhanas) pledged
on Friday to remain neutral in the presidential election.

Lemhanas governor Ermaya Suriadinata said during a ceremony in
observance of the institute's 39th anniversary that despite its
neutrality, it would be delighted if one of its graduates was
elected the next president.

Golkar Party's presidential aspirant Wiranto, Democratic
Party's presidential candidate Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and Agum
Gumelar, the running mate of United Development Party's
presidential candidate Hamzah Haz, are Lemhanas graduates, while
Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle's presidential nominee
Megawati Soekarnoputri is an honorary member of the institute. --
