Your article entitled Jakartans suffer from discriminating
public service, ... (The Jakarta Post, May 30, page 2) mentioned
a report made by the Indonesian Institute for Civil Society
(INCIS) on racial discrimination and cronyism in public services.
The article then said "The survey made in cooperation with the
European Union and the international Partnership Foundation..."

Please be advised that the accurate name is Partnership for
Governance Reform in Indonesia (Partnership).

We would like to inform you that our organization is a legal
entity registered as a Civil Law Partnership (Persekutuan
Perdata).

Partnership promotes governance reform in the country in terms
of anticorruption, decentralization and regional autonomy, legal
and judicial reform, security and police reform, civil service
reform, and representation reform. Partnership is not a
foundation. However, it is true that Partnership worked in
cooperation with the European Union in developing the program for
INCIS.

The program with INCIS is still going on. We will be glad to
inform you of further developments in this program.
