On suing RI, BI and Exim Bank

I am writing in response to The Jakarta Post June 25 report RI
govt and central bank sued for $58.69 billion. I feel concerned
about it and would like to make the following comments.

New York City attorneys Burchetta Brofman & Hanley on behalf
of the plaintiffs, Group of BA Ltd. and its principal Gustaff
Daniel Parengkuan, can hardly sue the Republic of Indonesia, the
Bank of Indonesia (the central bank) and Bank Expor Impor (Exim)
when they have no complete evidence.

Remember, the Watergate scandal was disclosed and had forced
the then-U.S. president Richard Nixon to step down from the
presidency.

If the court finds Indonesia, the central bank and Bank Exim
guilty, they should transfer the funds back to the plaintiffs'
account soon.

Instead of worsening, I'm sure this will enhance and remedy
Indonesia's honor in the international business world.
