The Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) says it will voice an impeachment against Vice President
Boediono if the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is slow in investigating the Bank Century bailout.
“We feel the KPK is reluctant to investigate the case. If this continues, then PKS will initiate the right to state a political opinion on the case,” PKS secretary-general Anis Matta told reporters in Jakarta on Monday.


Your comments:
I think this time the PKS should be more patient by not pushing the KPK to investigate our Vice President so hastily.
As I know it, there is a set of procedures to seek an impeachment, which must be approved by the House of Representatives and could make the PKS lose its voter base, which includes myself.

I agree with the PKS’s move to impeach Vice President Boediono and Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati. It will be a good lesson for government officials in making decisions.

This will lead to the total self-destruction of the PKS itself.
