Thread: Indonesian Corruption flies to Singapore

Interesting article: Indonesian politicians on the lam: The Singapore slink | The Economist

There is a long, very long way to go...

This is a great quote in the article: Mrs Nurbaeti, an Indonesian businesswoman, left for Singapore last year after being implicated in a bribery scandal involving dozens of lawmakers. Her husband claims she has been there for medical treatment, for a rare condition that “makes her forgetful”.

For some reason I can't get the above link to go to the article any more so try this one just put http before the :

Your original link still works for me, Markit.

How weird, it didn't but now it does for me too - oh well. Mysteries of the internet number 100000000 and 1

btw, that businesswomen is the wife of a TNI general...the plot thickens
She also travelled with 'fake' pasports (like Gayus)
And all of this crap because of some textmessages wich were insulting the presiden of R.I., at least so I've been told.

Thanks Markit, I love reading the Economist. Good to see someone else does too.

Hey Ford, yeah it's the best news magazine in the world.

The story goes it was the only mag they would let Mandela have for 26 years on Robin Island because they thought it was only about economics.
