the constitutional court tells the president he's wrong!

The Constitutional Court approved a proposal... ordering President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono not to issue a presidential decree on [the dismissal of KPK Commissioners Bibit and Chandra] before a court verdict [on their case].

A handful of intelligent and bold Indonesians stand up to the President and restore my faith in Indonesian justice.

The Constitutional Court has ordered President SBY to defer the dismissal of KPK Commissioners Bibit and Chandra until their cases are heard by the court.

At the same time, the DPR Commission III on Law and Human Rights announced that it will summon the National Police to explain its decision to arrest Bibit and Chandra. It seems pretty clear that the Commission, including Bambang Soesatyo, share the public's view that the Police are way out of line.

The President and his henchmen are under attack.

A hyper-opinionated bule with a deep fondness for Indonesia. Mildly outraged but mostly harmless.
