PNI-Supeni cancels rally

KENDARI, Southeast Sulawesi: The Indonesian Nationalist Party
led by Supeni (PNI-Supeni) called off its final campaign rally
here on Monday after party branch executives and supporters
disagreed on campaign methods.

"People insisted on holding a street rally, but we preferred
an indoor assembly as we used to do. Because no agreement was
reached, we decided to cancel the election campaign," branch head
Rasiu told Antara.

In the absence of a rally, party executives called on their
supporters to regroup and turn their minds to preparations for
the election day.

Rasiu said the party branch had from the beginning agreed not
to allow its supporters to take to street for fears of accidents
and clashes with other parties.

He said his party was set to eradicate human rights
violations, promote the enforcement of law and democratic
principles and combat corrupt, collusive and nepotistic
practices.

In particular, he said, PNI-Supeni would fight to maximize the
exploitation of the province's prime natural resources, such as
fish and minerals.
