Rejection of Volvos good example

From Koran Tempo

The Speaker of the People's Consultative Assembly (MPR) Hidayat Nur Wahid has said that he will reject the Volvo automobile allocated for him. In this respect, the Speaker of the House of People's Representatives, Agung Laksono, while yet to respond to Hidayat Nur Wahid's initiative, said that the leadership of the House was yet to discuss anything about the facilities designated for House members. He also said that cost effectiveness factor was not concerned only with doing without four or five automobiles but, rather, with how much money should be saved so that the impact would be significant.

However, Hidayat Nur Wahid's initiative is a good example. Most government officials will make the best use of the facilities that the state allocates for them. Only a small number of government officials are very careful about accepting these facilities because, for them, this life is but an ordeal.
