Mega awards wrong trophies four times

PEKANBARU: President Megawati Soekarnoputri handed over the
wrong trophy to winning students in the third national science
olympiad four times on Saturday.

In the first instance, she handed over a trophy to the winner
of the senior high school category, but to the chagrin of
Megawati, the student refused to accept it by saying: "Bu, this
is not my trophy."

The trophy, which should have been given to the winner from
the junior high school category, was given back to the
organizers.

After the first glitch was settled, Mega was asked to hand
over the trophy to the winner from the senior high category. Once
again the student gave it back. "This is for winner of the
elementary student category," the student said.

To the amusement of the spectators, the same incident occurred
when Megawati gave the trophies for junior high and elementary
school students. --Antara
