PMII to hold annual congress

BOGOR: The Indonesian Islamic Students Movement (PMII) will
hold its annual congress on Friday in Puncak, Bogor.

Congress participants are expected to discuss the government's
fight against corruption and the possibility of moving the
nation's capital to Kalimantan island.

"Jakarta is already too crowded ... Moreover, it is too close
to a fault line. We could learn from Malaysia, which moved its
administrative capital from Kuala Lumpur, which is the now
business center, to Putra Jaya," the congress chairman Rahmat
Imron Hidayat said on Wednesday.

He said at least 1,000 of the organization's executives from
across the country would attend the congress. -- JP
