Pirates, come and join me
Article Abstract:
Indonesia is the only place in the whole world where software copying is done on a large scale and here Pius Sumaktoyo is a person who developed the country's first software to translate Indonesian text into English and vice versa. But it was found that five successive versions of his program were peddled openly for a fraction of official price and for this Pius is asking the pirates to work with him and not against him.

Why Bashir's to be set free
Article Abstract:
A court ruling cuts the sentence of the alleged spiritual leader of terrorists, Abu Bakar Bashir and also dropped rebellion charges against him altogether. The western diplomats and other analysts believe that early freedom for Bashir could placate Muslim voters who feel the government has bent over backwards to please western nations in prosecuting the war on terrorism.
