Extortion by immigration officers I can imagine, but not robbery!

It seems there is no control at all.

There are no bad soldiers, only bad commanders. Regarding the blackmail and mistreatment of tourists at Ngurah Rai International Airport, the only solution is to dismiss the newly installed immigration chief.

E. Nurdin

If all such incidents were reported, the JP would probably have to expand the size of the newspaper.

Offending firms targeted

The Supreme Court has handed a hefty fine worth Rp 366 billion (US$25.5 million) to a plantation company for causing forest fires, while the National Police are angling for more firms, including a unit of Singapore-based Asia Pulp & Paper, deemed accountable for the rampaging land and forest fires in Sumatra. What do you think?
