Mega's accusation
Mega's accusation
of the press
From Bisnis Indonesia
The mass media needs to react to President Megawati's
accusation that the press has blown the deportation of migrant
Indonesian workers in Nunukan out of proportion by refraining to
report anything connected to her as a President or a private
person.
This may be what Megawati wants, given that she is a tight-
lipped introvert who cannot stand criticism.
There are many other news stories more interesting than those
about Megawati, a person whose words and deeds are very poor in
quality. I always skip reading or watching stories about Megawati
in the newspaper or on TV. On the other hand I read or watch
carefully, and enthusiastically, what observers critically say
about the President's statements.
