Clear as mud

Members of the Lapindo Mudflow Disaster Victims (KASAL) group hold up placards deploring the slow settlement of compensation payments for victims of the mudflow disaster, while their representatives meet with members of the National Human Rights Commission in Jakarta on Wednesday. The mudflow victims urged the commission to thoroughly investigate the disaster in Sidoarjo, East Java, which has displaced thousands of people. JP/Wendra Ajistyatama
