RI wants Myanmar to quit 'bugging'

The Jakarta Post ,  Jakarta   |  Thu, 07/15/2004 11:49 AM

JAKARTA: The government urged Yangon on Wednesday to respond actively in regards the suspected tapping of the Indonesian Embassy to Myanmar.

""We expect Myanmar to take corrective action, as we have strong indications that our embassy has been bugged. We have lodged a clear objection to Yangon,"" Minister of Foreign Affairs Hassan Wirayuda said.

Myanmar had claimed to have a very old telecommunications system that may have appeared as a tapping system, he said.

""But we all know that it is very easy to unplug a bugging system. I believe Myanmar will simply deny the allegation,"" Hassan remarked. -- JP
