Magical memories: Megawati is more than a name from the past

Article Abstract:

Megawati Sukarnoputri is emerging as a strong contender in Indonesian Presidential politics. Her speech at the PDI conference in Bali in Oct 1998 showed her defining herself. She supports an open market and promises to invest in technology meaningful to the low income people. The downward spiral of the Indonesian economy and growing disenchantment with current President Habibie improve Megawati chances in the 1999 elections.

Now, the two man show

Article Abstract:

President Suharto is positioning B.J. Habibie to become his vice-president after Suharto is handed another five year-term as Indonesia's President. Unlike previous vice-presidents during Suharto's 32-year rule, Habibie will be an active politician and may even succeed Suharto after he steps down. Habibie is regarded by many as someone who works hard and can be a good motivator.

The blame game

Article Abstract:

General Wiranto, the Indonesian armed forces chief, ranked as one of the top presidential candidates before his riot police and Army troops killed 8 student protestors during demonstrations in Jakarta. Although he took out an ad in the newspaper sending his condolences, many students feel his anguish will do nothing to ease their loss.
