Why not Wiranto?

Mr. Suparjo asks the readers in his letter who they think should be president (The Jakarta Post, April 19, 2001).

Well, certainly in my mind there is no doubt that should one be looking for a leader who is charismatic, cultured, educated and above all else loyal, one need look no further than Mr. Wiranto.

Has he not proved time and time again his absolute loyalty to his country, one nation, his president, his fellow officers and his principles? Even in the face of adversity he has upheld his beliefs (right or wrong). Then again, perhaps that is not what "democracy" is all about...
