SURABAYA: Beauty did not count when police and local election
supervisors dispersed on Wednesday 10 women who were campaigning
in support of Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono-Jusuf Kalla.
A local election supervisory committee member, Machmud
Suhermono, said the 10 "pretty women" were distributing flowers
and stickers bearing a picture of the pair to motorists and
passersby at a crossroad on Jl. Dr. Soetomo. The official said no
campaign was scheduled to take place that day on the street.
"They are not part of the campaign team, but claim to be
supporters of the candidates. But who knows?" Machmud said,
adding that all parties must uphold the regulations.
His team had also warned campaign teams for Amien Rais-Siswono
Yudohusodo and Megawati Soekarnoputri-Hasyim Muzadi for placing
banners in the neutral zone of Jl. A. Yani. -- Antara
