I found this article from my mail archive. It was dated back to 1998. A friend of mine, who at that time works at fmi.com, got this article from her friend who works at the same office. It has some comments written in Bahasa Indonesia, talking about the situation in Indonesia at that time, especially in Jakarta.

Have a nice reading!



Thanks.. see comments... (just for refreshing)
