The House of Representatives’ inquiry

Minister Sri Mulyani and former vice president Jusuf Kalla on Jan. 13 to
testify about the Rp 6.7 trillion (US$716 million) bailout.
Mulyani is scheduled to face the
committee at 10 a.m., while Kalla will be questioned at 7 p.m. Raden Pardede,
secretary of the Financial System Stability Committee, will be grilled at 3
p.m.
On Jan. 12, the committee will also
summon Vice President Boediono, who was the Bank Indonesia governor at the time
of the bailout, kompas.com reported.
