Navy to accept 200 new cadets

JAKARTA: The Naval Academy plans to accept 200 new cadets for
the 2004/2005 academic year, the Navy's human resources
assistant, Sudaryanto, said on Friday.

Sudaryanto said steps would be taken to ensure all of the
cadets met the physical, mental and intellectual requirements of
the academy.

He also stressed cadet hopefuls would not be charged any
registration fees by the Navy.

"It is completely untrue that anybody asks for fees or for
admission guarantees," said Sudaryanto.

Registration opened on March 15 and will continue until April
30 at 28 locations across the country.

Among the requirements for those wishing to enroll in the
Naval Academy are that cadets must be Indonesian citizens, 18 to
22 years of age, high school graduates with adequate marks, and
physically and mentally fit. --Antara
