Do they have a good and logical reason to do that?

Taco Macaco de Vries

Will it lead to another arrest only, or get the lost trillions of rupiah back?

Eddy Arjuna Zainy

The plausible explanation to expedite (rather prioritize) the Bank Century case by the KPK; rather than touch on the earlier BLBI bank disorder during the earlier government of former president Megawati Soekarnoputri must be the availability of abundance of incriminating documents on the Century case.

The Indonesian people nevertheless will want both cases equally expedited.

So this is what it comes down to, is it?

After all those accusations against the former KPK leaders, after all the song and dance, the new look KPK is going to drop BLBI. It all comes full circle, and some people are very happy. Thank you Mr. Clean Jokowi.

Indonesia is largely a series of mafias, with those in power sucking vast amounts of money out of the state budget.

It is one of the worst and most unstable modes of government ever devised. In particular, it is very prone to fiscal crises when the plunder and graft reaches dangerous peaks.

Now we know why Abraham Samad was hurriedly declared a suspect and suspended.

Job done! Megawati off the hook! KPK run by a policeman! Everybody happy now!

Terry McAsee

It makes us even more suspicious about Mega'€™s role in the BLBI case.

It is very obvious she has something to hide.
