The article Expressing *Chinese Islam' by Choirul Mahfud, published on this page on Nov. 20, 2009, is very similar to a piece written by Anne Dickson titled Chinese, Muslim - and proud of it published in Inside Indonesia recently. In terms of the ideas put forward as well in the phrases used we do not consider this the original work of the writer. The Jakarta Post takes claims of plagiarism and the infringement of ideas very seriously. We hereby withdraw the offending article by Choirul Mahfud and apologize to readers, and most particularly to Ms. Dickson, for this editorial oversight.
