The Snow Ball effect had rolling down, now it is the time to a reformation at Police-act, it is not a secret that from Village to HQ City, many of the policemen(=Buaya, as Susno D. said)are commit with Crimes. They behave as the Law itself playing role as Prosecutor and executor-Judge, with Gun and Jail making money by blackmail and bribery. Corruption in RI will never be redeemed as the tool of law(police)are proclaim itself as a hunger predator(=Buaya lapar). In fact, most of Indonesian policemen are parasites and predator of peoples. The Bandit behind its uniform and Gun. so, you may have KPK or making another Komisi Komisi an, but if the Cops is like now ones, it is just a Don Quixote story.Tami Koestomo — Mon, 11/02/2009 - 4:45pm
Tami Koestomo I do hope Shakespeare will pardon me for deliberately misquoting his immortal words as: 'Something's rotten in the state of the Republic of Indonesia' (and has been, for a long time). May our increasingly recurrent nightmares about 'KPK-Gate' not become a frightful reality. Please, please, all good and brave Powers that still fight for Justice and Human Rights, do not hand over that precious recording regarding the 'criminalization' of the KPK to the Police and the Attorney General's Office, as it may disappear without a trace, just like the missing clause on Tobacco in the Health Bill the lawmakers passed into law last month. Remember that for those who are cornered, necessity knows no law. Tami Koestomo, Bogor
