Political freedom in Indonesia is bought with rupiah.<BR/><BR/>Try it next time you are there for a conference. You will get the first visit by someone claiming to be a Government censor, they will ask you all about your group and the conference, then at some stage a private conversation will take place where they will be willing to overlook your non-muslim status, and non-muslim agenda for something like $10,000 USD.<BR/><BR/>You either pay it, as most people do, or you take the risk like this lot obviously did.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
