Megawati to inaugurate Indragiri bridge

PEKANBARU, Riau: President Megawati Soekarnoputri is scheduled to
inaugurate the Indragiri Bridge in Indragiri Hilir district, Riau
province, on Saturday, a provincial administration spokesman
said.

"The ceremony was supposed to take place last Monday when the
head of state was in Pekanbaru, but it was canceled due to bad
weather," Edi Yusti said on Friday.

He said the President, who will travel to the location by
helicopter, would also campaign in Riau on Saturday for her
party, the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP).

During the inauguration, he said, the President would be
accompanied by Riau Governor HM Rusli Zainal. -- Antara
