More pages for newspapers

Journalists, eat your hearts out. While most Jakartans enjoy
the extended weekend, a number of newspapers in Indonesia will be
raising their pages for the APEC coverage, which means more work.

Minister of Information Harmoko yesterday announced that
newspapers in Indonesia can expand their size by four more pages
for the duration of the APEC meetings.

Harmoko also said that the holiday declared by the government
this Monday and Tuesday for government and private offices in
Jakarta does not apply to newspapers.

Harmoko said, "Newspapers and the electronic media are
expected to disseminate the news about the APEC meeting to the
public," reported the Antara news agency. (emb)
