Seoharto2008 - Supersemar found guilty

seocontest2008 - seoharto2008In 1975, the government established the Supersemar Foundation to provide scholarships for poor students, athletes and foster children across the country.

During its development, Soeharto and his cronies misused the funds by diverting them to several of their companies, such as Kosgoro, Sempati, PT Bank Duta, PT Kiani Sakti and PT Kiani Lestari.

Soeharto’s death on Jan. 27 saw a transfer of some of the legal rights to five of his children: Siti Hardijanti Rukmana, Sigit Harjojudanto, Bambang Trihatmodjo, Siti Hediati Hariyadi and Siti Hutami Endang Adiningsih. Soeharto’s youngest son Hutomo Mandala Putra was not among the heirs.

The South Jakarta District Court found Thursday the Supersemar Foundation guilty of misusing scholarship funds, but ordered it to repay only one fourth of the losses it caused to the state.

The foundation, set up by late former president Soeharto, was said to have caused state losses of US$420.6 million and Rp 186.1 billion (US$20.2 million).

The court asked for compensation of $105 million and Rp 46.4 billion and discharged it from paying the further compensation of a total of Rp 10 trillion for immaterial losses as demanded by the prosecutors.

Presiding judge Wahyono said the civil court was only able to declare the $105 million and Rp 46.4 billion as the government’s money, while the sources of the remaining $314.4 million and Rp 139.7 billion were undetectable.

Jump position while Government banning online p0rn

seocontest2008 positionYesterday my blog still so far away from a position called better :) Just check it out, surprise, I am already in 12th.So, what is relationship between this blog and online porn ? Nothing! Just would like to inform that Indonesia Government via The House of Representatives is set to pass a bill today that would jail users and providers of pornographic websites, despite fears the legislation could victimize receivers of unsolicited email containing adult content. When the bill comes into effect, providers and users of pornographic sites will face a maximum of three years in prison or a fine of up to Rp 1 billion (around US$107 million). Uhmmm …

The Information and Communications Ministry has made available software to block websites with adult content. The software can be downloaded from the ministry’s website. (Do you smell something here ? It is a big project with a lot of expense !)

It also includes provisions criminalizing computer hackers and any activities that use others’ Internet domains or change and delete information on certain sites.

Police are entitled to confiscate evidence from people suspected of violating the law, including their computers.

Those violating the provisions will face a maximum eight years in jail or a fine of up to Rp 2 billion.

Legislators said the bill was necessary to prevent Internet abuse and help meet the public demand for goods and services bought electronically. It will also help secure the trust of foreign investors and generate more inter-market transactions.

Would it kill our freedom ? Stop writing something harm your self in your blog if you don’t wanna go to jail or spend your money worthless.
