A Corrupt Past Revisited

A Corrupt Past Revisited THE KPK indicted Syafruddin Temenggung, ex-chairman of the Indonesian Bank Restructuring Agency (IBRA) for abuse of power over debt resettlement papers given to undeserving corrupt bankers a decade ago. Syafruddin is suspected of absolving rogue debtors like tycoon Sjamsul Nursalim from repaying their debts and releasing them from legal charges. The list is long and the KPK plans to reopen an old unfinished business. Special Report: Inspiring Migrant Workers Reports about Indonesian migrant workers may not always be about doom and gloom. Some overcome challenges through hard work and perseverance, and come home to share their experiences and whatever rewards they earn to help the impoverished communities they came from. Tempo profiles eight such heroes, with the hope that the Government will do more to support these citizens who send home valuable remittances and contribute significantly to the economy. Outreach: Ending Violence against Women Two out of four women in Indonesia are victims of sexual violence committed by their spouses, while one in four women is physically abused by men other than their husbands. The Indonesian Women’s Association for Justice and the Legal Aid Institute (LBH APIK) help women and child victims, by recruiting paralegals to assist them. Meanwhile, CIS Timor, another NGO is on a campaign to end the patriarchal mindset of Timorese youths by setting up the Laki-Laki Baru (New Men) community. Tempo English reports in commemoration of Kartini Day on April 21.
