Portrait of punishment for corruption in Bali

DENPASAR - Judges indeed have the authority to decide on the verdict in legal cases. It is their right and nobody can interfere in their conviction of defendants found guilty of say corruption that harms the state finances, for example. However, their verdicts are sometimes considered controversial as is in certain verdicts that are currently at issue. Defendant Harianto was recently sentenced to 14 months in jail and Gde Merta to 1 year in jail for a corruption case involving goats, that cost the state IDR 50 million. Meanwhile three of the five defendants; Dewa Komang Indra, Planning Division Head of Undiksha IGP Sugiwanatha, Headmna of Jineng Dalam, Negah Nawa, who were found guilty of corruption in the FOK Udiksha mark up case were also each sentenced to 1 year in jail by a panel of judges consisting of Wayan Sukanila, Nurbaya Lumban Gaol and led by Dewa Suardhita. This case cost the state IDR 3.7 billion (which has also been reimbursed).

“Inferno” world premiere set for Dante’s birthplace of Florence

SINGAPORE - The Italian city of Florence, birthplace of Italian poet Dante Alighieri, will stage the world premiere of “Inferno”, the third film to be adapted from the Dan Brown novels about symbologist Robert Langdon. “I’m happy to say it is in beautiful Florence in Italy,” Ron Howard, director of all the three previous films, told Reuters in Singapore on Tuesday, adding that the location was appropriate given that the city was the “centrepiece of the movie”. The premiere will be on Oct. 8. “Inferno” sets Harvard symbologist Langdon, played by Tom

Hanks, on a manhunt as he races to stop a plot to control the world’s population by the unleashing of a deadly artificial plague. The film is the latest in line from the blockbuster book and film franchise that began with Brown’s 2003 religious-themed mystery novel “The Da Vinci Code”, and sees Hanks reprising the role of the character he once described as “the

smartest guy in the room”. The movie’s name and many of the symbols examined by Langdon draw largely from the life and works of Alighieri, whose greatest literary achievement was the 14th-century “Divine Comedy” trilogy, the first of which is entitled “Inferno”, and describes nine circles of suffering in hell. The film also stars British actress Felicity Jones and Indian actor Irrfan Khan, while Ben Foster plays the scientist who intends on releasing the virus to solve the world’s population increase.

Case... Continued on page 2

Lawyers deny Indonesian woman poisoned coffee to kill friend

JAKARTA - Lawyers for an Indonesian woman charged her coffee. “Whether through CCTV or with murdering her college friend by poisoning her coffee said on Wednesday there was no evidence that she committed such based on witness accounts, there was no movement by Jessica to rea crime. At the opening court hearing, prosecutors accused Jessica Kumala Wongso, a resident of Australia, of the premeditated murder of Wayan Mirna Salihin at a Jakarta cafe in early January. If found guilty she could face the death penalty. “According to the results of a medical forensic examination, the cause of Mirna’s death was cya-

nide poisoning,” prosecutor Ardito Murdi told a packed courtroom in Indonesia’s capital. Prosecutors said Salihin took a sip of her cyanide-laced drink, collapsed on the floor, and went into convulsions. She died by the time she arrived at hospital. Defence lawyers said there was no evidence Wongso, 27, had poisoned

trieve and put sodium cyanide into Mirna’s glass,” Wongso’s lawyer, Elizabeth Batubara, said in the crowded court room. “Nobody saw Jessica put poison into Mirna’s glass.” The next hearing is scheduled for Tuesday. The case has grabbed widespread media attention in Indonesia and neighbouring Australia. Indonesian President Joko Wido-

do’s administration has waded into the case, saying Wongso would not be executed if found guilty, according to media. The deal was made with Australia in order for Australian police to assist in the investigation. Australia does not have the death sentence and opposes its use in other countries. Australia’s police force faced criticism last year for its involvement in tracking an international drug smuggling network that culminated in the execution of two Australian drug traffickers by firing

squad in Indonesia. Indonesia has stepped up the use of the death penalty, mainly as a deterrent to drug crimes, and plans to execute 16 prisoners as early as next month.(rtr) News can also be heard in “Bali Image” at Global Radio FM 96.5 from 9.30 until 10.00 am.

COVER STORY Case...

From page 1 Of course, the judges use their own judgment in making their decisions, but this comparison in cases has made many people wonder why a goat breeder convicted in a corruption case involving IDR 50 million was punished more severely than those involved in a corruption case involving billion of rupiah. When asked for his opinion by journalist, Gede Pande Eka Prayika from the People’s Reform Network (NGO), argued that the Corruption Court judges have taught the people of Bali that grafting is alright. Light punishments clearly do not deter perpetrators, he said. “Yes, the case of the state loss of IDR 3.7 billion (in the indictment) received a sentence of just one year. This sets a bad precedent fin the eradication of corruption in Bali”

he emphasized. In response to this case, the People’s Reform Network has asked the public prosecutor of Bali’s Prosecutor’s Office (currently led by Dr. H. Abdul Muni), to make an appeal. If the prosecutors remain silent and accepts the verdict, said Pande, the public prosecutor will also be suspected of not being serious about eradicating corruption. He added that he believes that the prosecutor will make an appeal. This cannot be tolerated, he said. Many people feel that a one-year sentence for a corruption case that caused losses of billions of rupiah does not make sense. Even though the defendant has refunded the money grafted from the state, the criminal act committed in the first place remains an issue. Spokesperson for the Bali Prosecutor’s Office, Ashari Kurniawan, when asked about the light sentence for the perpetrators of the corruption case of IDR 3.7 billion, did

not say much. “The verdict is the judge’s authority. Please refer to the judge. Regarding the prosecutor’s

plea, that is up to his discretion. It is not up to us to say whether or not an appeal should be filed as that is up

TABANAN - The tidal waves on the southern coast of Tabanan wrecked havoc on 12 villages this week. A number of buildings and public facilities such as a temple compound wall, levees and paddy fields were damaged by the waves. The Tabanan regional disaster mitigation agency (BPBD) has been collecting date regarding the damage.

IBP/Bit

Head of the Tabanan regional disaster mitigation agency (BPBD), I Gusti Ngurah Sucita, said on Tuesday (Jun. 14) that his team collected data on all 12 villages in just one day. So far they have assessed that damage due to tidal waves occurred at; Segara Temple in Soka customary village where the compound wall broke down, Soka Beach moorings were destroyed, 1,500 square meters of farmland at Tegal Mengkeb village were damaged, East Selemadeg was also ferocisouly swept by waves. Also the culvert used for turtle hatchling in captivity at Yeh Gangga and the paving block of Yeh Gangga Beach used as protection and the revetment of Perang Temple at Pangkung Tibah similarly could not escape from the tidal waves and neither could the Batu Bolong Temple. The compound wall of the representative shrine of Tanah Lot Temple was also eroded along approximately three meters. “We have checked out 12 villages a the team will further analyze the damage and determine which ones will be proposed for assistance” he explained. When asked about the total amount of losses caused by the tidal waves, Sucita said that it could reach into the millions of rupiah but the exact amount remains uncertain. “Repairs will cost into the millions of rupiah. The details will be revealed later. The data has only just been collected”, he said. BPBD Tabanan is also coordinating with the subdistrict heads to let people known that vigilance is “No particular actions are required but it is important that people living in coastal remain alert”, he concluded. BPBD also reminds people to be alert to the threat of other natural disasters. “Beware of landslides and falling trees, especially during the rainy season,” he said. (kmb)

Second study this week links whole grains with long life

Can coffee cause cancer? Only if it’s very hot, says WHO agency

Bubbles form on the surface of a cup of coffee in a cafe in New York, April 11, 2014.

LONDON - There is no conclusive evidence that drinking coffee causes cancer, the World Health Organization’s cancer agency will say in a reverse of its previous warning, but it will also say all “very hot” drinks are probably carcinogenic. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) had previously rated coffee as “possibly carcinogenic” but has changed its mind. On Wednesday it will say its latest review found “no conclusive evidence for a carcinogenic effect” of coffee drinking and will point to some studies showing coffee may actually reduce the risk of developing certain types of cancer. At the same time, however, it will say other scientific evidence suggests that drinking anything very hot - around 65 degrees Celsius or above - including water, coffee, tea and other beverages, probably does cause cancer of the oesophagus.

Lyon-based IARC, which last year prompted headlines worldwide by saying processed meat can cause cancer, reached its conclusions after reviewing more than 1,000 scientific studies in humans and animals. There was inadequate evidence for coffee to be classified as either carcinogenic or not carcinogenic. IARC had previously put coffee as a “possible carcinogen” in its 2B category alongside chloroform, lead and many other substances. The U.S. National Coffee Association welcomed the change in IARC’s classification as “great news for coffee drinkers”. In its evaluation of very hot beverages, IARC will say animal

studies suggest carcinogenic effects probably occur with drinking temperatures of 65 Celsius or above. Several experiments with rats and mice found “very hot” liquids including water - could promote the development of tumours, it will say. Oesophageal cancer is the eighth most common cause of cancer worldwide and one of the main causes of cancer death, with around 400,000 deaths recorded in 2012. The WHO’s official spokesman in Geneva, Gregory Hartl, said the evaluation of hot drinks was based on limited evidence in humans and animals, and that more research was needed. “We say: be prudent, let hot drinks cool down,” he told Reuters, adding that the WHO’s advice was to “not consume foods or drinks when they are at a very hot - scalding hot - temperature”.

BUMPING up whole grain intake even slightly may lower the risk of death from heart disease, cancer and other chronic diseases, according to review published Tuesday in The BMJ. The new report echoes a study released Monday in the journal Circulation in which every additional serving of whole grains cut cardiovascular disease-related death risk by 9 percent and cancer death risk by five percent. One serving of whole grains can be a half-cup of cooked brown rice, cooked oatmeal, or cooked 100 percent whole grain pasta, or one slice of 100 percent whole grain bread. The BMJ review covered 45 studies involving more than 700,000 people altogether, and 100,000 deaths during follow-up. Researchers found the biggest difference in risk between people who ate two servings of whole grains per day and those who ate none. People who got two servings per day had lower risks of coronary heart disease, cardiovascular disease,

death from stroke, cancer, respiratory disease, infectious disease and diabetes. “The current study provides the most comprehensive assessment of whole grain intake and mortality to date and suggests that there are benefits of eating large amounts of whole grains for many different disease and mortality outcomes,” including respiratory and infectious diseases which were not assessed in previous reviews, said lead author Dr. Dagfinn Aune of Imperial College London. “Most likely the whole package of beneficial components in whole grains is the key, and therefore it is important to eat more whole grain foods rather than increasing intake of single nutrients from supplements,” Aune told Reuters Health by email. Breakfast cereals, whole grain breads and bran were associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, he said, but specific grain types haven’t been studied in as much detail as whole grains in general.

Bad weather, sluggish fishermen hope for rice aid

AMLAPURA - Condition of bad weather at sea caused fishermen to slump. Other than the waves and ocean current are still running into viciously, fishermen are also difficult to catch fish, so that they decided to wait for better weather condition at sea. It is based on the observation on a number of beaches in Karangasem until Monday (Jun. 13). The sluggish fishermen hoped there will be assistance such as rice or cheap grocery bazaar held by the government. Hopefully, this effort can help ease the burden of poor fishermen to support their family. Fishermen at Ujung Pesisi and

in the vicinity to Seraya area until Monday did not dare to go to sea. It happened because ferocious waves were still crashing during the bad weather season marked by their continuous onslaught to cause abrasion. More fishermen

looked to stay in the fishermen hut while repairing their fishing gear, such as rearranging their nets and cleaning or re-painting their boat. One of the fishermen at Ujung Pesisi, Abdul Hakim, 54, told that approximately 250 fishermen at local village chose not to go to sea. Sea waves are still ferocious so that they are very risky. In addition, fishermen are difficult to get fish. Mackerel tuna becoming the target of local fishermen is alleged

to have moved as compelled by sea currents towards the waters of Lombok. To reach the area, fishermen need fuel worth IDR 200,000 to IDR 300,000. “It has high risk and there is possibility of suffering losses due to getting no mackerel tuna. Indeed, the price of tuna is IDR 4,000 to IDR 5,000 per head lately because it is difficult to get,” said Abdul Hakim after having fished for decades. Another fisherman, Marzuki, said that fishing is the only

skill and profession having been worked on since his childhood. He has not paddy fields or moors. On that account, 96 percent of residents at the coastal village rely on their livelihood from the sea. He expected the attention of the government, either in the form of rice aid or others. “We heard that poor fishermen in Lombok are provided with rice aid by the government during bad weather season in the sea like lately,” said Marzuki.

Hindering regional economic growth

Parliament supports cancellation of regional bylaws

Bumping up whole grain intake even slightly may lower the risk of death from heart disease, cancer and other chronic diseases

MANGUPURA - The central government has decided to abolish regional bylaws (Perda) considered to be overly beaurocratic or impeding regional economic growth. Based on the results of evaluation or regional bylaws and regional leader regulations conducted by the government a total of 3,143 rules and regulations have been canceled. This policy is supported by Badung House of Representatives. As Chairman of Commission I of the Badung House of Representatives, I Wayan Suyasa, said on Tuesday (Jun. 14), there are still

a lot of overlapping laws that are impeding the regional economic growth. “If the regional bylaws indeed counter to the constitution or are undermining society, we do not dispute the cancellation of these regional bylaws. We consistently respect whatever decisions the President makes as long as they do not cause harm to the people”, he said. He added that the cancellation of regional bylaws that go up against eh law and do not foster economic growth should in fact be abolished

“In other words, the regional bylaws can go hand in hand with other laws” he said. When asked whether any of the bylaws being annulled are ones that were created by the government of Badung, Suyasa said that he does not know for sure as he has yet to receive all the details.“The plan was only just announced so we do not know if any of Badung’S bylaws are to be annulled”, he said. Nevertheless, Suyasa asked the government of Badung to announce as soon as possible whether any of Badung’s regional bylaws are

included in the list. “Well ... the government should announce if any of Badung’s bylaw have been cancelled”, he said. As many people know, President of the Republic of Indonesia Joko Widodo revoked regional bylaws considered to have hampered the process of licensing and investment, bylaws that are considered to have harmed business opportunities and others that run counter to higher regulations. Regional bylaws that have been annulled include unnecessary levies and disturbance permits that

still rely on old regulations. For instance, the establishment of businesses in a given region does not necessarily have permission of principle, business license and building permit (IMB), but it only needs one business permit. The central government also appreciated that the list of regional bylaws that have been cancelled were chosen based on the initiative of governors and their consideration of bylaws as impeding investment through long licences submission processes and problematic procedures.

Set heritage area

GIANYAR - Aside from being a city of the art, Gianyar is rich with archaeological heritages. Based on the recent data, there are 229 locations retaining archeological heritages. However, the tangible cultural heritages have not been determined as cultural heritage so far. Based on the data up to 2015, there are 229 locations of cultural heritages and most of them are temples remaining to keep the archaeological heritages. Of that number, there are approximately 3,074 objects, 22 buildings and 71 structures of archaeological heritage. The Head of the Gianyar Culture Agency, IGN Wijana, said that the archeological heritages have not been designated as cultural heritage. It happens because there is no formation of the expert team of cultural heritage. “In the Law No.11/2010 this expert team of cultural heritage is commissioned to give a recommendation on the determination, assessment and elimination of cultural heritage to the regent / mayor,” he said. On that basis, the regent of Gianyar inaugurated the expert team of cultural heritage in the meeting room of the regent, Monday (Jun. 13). The figures appointed as the team members consisting of the experts coming from the government and non-government elements of various fields of science having a certificate of competence to give a recommendation. They consist of Dr. IGN Anom (archaeologist), A.A. Gede Oka Astawa, (archaeologist), I Gusti Made Rena (architect), I Wayan Badra (archaeologist), I Wayan Muliarsa (archaeologist) and Ni Komang Aniek Purniti (archaeologist). They are considered competent, so that the National Professional Certification Agency (BSNP) issued a certificate for the Cultural Heritage Expert Team. (kmb35)

After being hit by huge waves accompanied with tidal floods, farmers in the coastal areas of Lepang Beach are faced with problems.

Irrigation flow covered up by sand

Three hectares of farmland threatened to be inactive

SEMARAPURA - After being hit by huge waves accompanied with tidal floods, farmers in the coastal areas of Lepang Beach are faced with problems. Brunt of the waves having occurred since the end of May makes irrigation flow of Subak Sidayu and Subak Lepang covered up with sand. This condition causes three hectares of farmland submerged in water when farmers’ paddy has been yellowing. If this condition is allowed, farmers at both subak areas will experience greater losses because their plants die. Headman of Takmung, Nyoman Mudita, explained on Tuesday (Jun. 13) that condition of farmers in the area of three hectares is worsened after one hectare of farmland was submerged in seawater. Now, it is the turn for three hectares of farmland flooded with the subak irrigation water. This happened because the flow of subak irrigation is covered up with sand so that it is unable to flow to the sea. This condition is disputed by farmers because their paddy plants are currently yellowing and ready to be harvested. According to Nyoman Mudita, the yellowing rice should not be

flooded because it can cause the plants to bow and die before it can be harvested. According to him, the water submerging the paddy fields has an impact on three hectares of farmers’ farmland. If this is allowed, farmers will suffer losses again because the paddy plants are dead before being harvested. “One hectare has failed to be harvested due to seawater. Now, it is the turn for three hectares of farmland having been damaged due to sand burying the irrigation channel,” he said, Tuesday (Jun. 14). To resolve this problem, Nyo-

man Mudita has sent a letter to the Regent of Klungkung Nyoman Suwirta, Public Works Agency, Agriculture Agency and regional disaster mitigation agency (BPBD) related to the borrowing of heavy equipment. The adequately many heaps of sand make it difficult for farmers to cope it alone. “As the heaps of sand are thick enough, we then ask to be assisted with heavy equipment to quickly resolve the submerged paddy plants,” he added. Related to the letter of Takmung’s headman, Spokesperson of the government of Klungkung, I Wayan Parna, admitted that Regent Suwirta has received the letter requesting for heavy equipment. According to Wayan Parna, the letter will be coordinated with the Public Works Agency for further follow-up. “The letter has been received and will be coordinated with the Public Works Agency for further action,” added the official from Sidayu.

The strongly-worded statement by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), released by the Malaysian foreign ministry, did not name China directly but warned against raising tension in the waters, where Beijing has been building artificial islands and increasing its military presence. “We expressed our serious concerns over recent and ongoing developments, which have eroded trust and confidence, increased tensions and which may have the potential to undermine peace, security and stability in the South China Sea,” said the statement, which was issued following a meeting in the Chinese city of Kunming between foreign ministers from ASEAN and China. But just hours later, a Malaysian ministry spokeswoman recalled the statement, saying “urgent amendments” needed to be made and an updated version would be distributed. However, no updated joint statement was later issued and the spokeswoman said countries would now issue individual statements. China lays historical claim to most of the South China Sea, with its “Nine Dash line” stretching deep into the maritime heart of Southeast Asia, covering hundreds of disputed islands and reefs, rich fishing grounds and oil and gas deposits. The Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Taiwan and Brunei have overlapping claims over the region, through which trillions of dollars in ship-borne trade passes every year. China said the media was hyping up the issue, and that the original statement was not an official ASEAN document. “This meeting was a closed-door meeting and from the beginning there was no preparation to make a joint statement,” said Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang at a regular briefing.

Alligator drags toddler into lagoon at Disney resort in Florida

Early morning view of the Grand Floridian Resort and Spa located in the Magic Kingdom at Disney World in Orlando, Florida on September 28, 2003, near where an alligator dragged a small boy into a lagoon.

FLORIDA - An alligator dragged a two-year-old boy into a lagoon at Walt Disney World near Orlando, Florida late on Tuesday, defeating the father’s efforts to wrestle his son away, police said. Officers were still hunting for the child, grabbed at the Seven Seas Lagoon at about 9:15 p.m. at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa in Lake Buena Vista, the Orange County Sheriff’s Office said. The boy was playing in the water while his family, vacationing from Nebraska, relaxed on the edge of the lagoon, Orange County Sheriff Jerry Demings told a news conference. “The father entered the water and tried to grab the child and was not successful,” Demings said. The mother also tried to resue the

boy and the father suffered hand injuries, he added. The family has not been named. “As a father, as a grandfather we are going to hope for the best in these circumstances but, based on my 35 years of law enforcement experience, we know we have some challenges ahead of us,” Demings told reporters. He said the animal was thought to be between 4 and 7 feet (1.2 and 2 meters) long. Wildlife and marine officials were drafted into the search, which ran through the night. “Everyone here at Walt Disney World Resort is devastated by this tragic accident. Our thoughts are with the family and we are helping the family,” a spokeswoman said. (rtr)

Price hikes in Egypt bite hard during holy month of Ramadan

CAIRO — Shop owner Hassan Mahmoud laid out his heaps of dried fruits and nuts at a multicolored Ramadan tent in the Egyptian capital to catch shoppers’ eyes for the holiday, like he does every year. Only this time, he said, “people aren’t buying.” “Things get more expensive every year but this time it’s even worse because the dollar is higher,” Mahmoud said as he stood on a street full of similar stands bedecked with lanterns set up for the holy month that began June 6. Annual inflation hit 12.23 percent in May — the highest level in seven years — driven partly by dollar appreciation. The economy has yet to recover from the 2011 uprising that toppled longtime autocrat Hosni Mubarak, and the man charged with fixing it — President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi — has shown little tolerance for criticism. The price hikes are particularly painful during Ramadan, when families traditionally break the dawn-to-dusk fast with lavish feasts. In an attempt to soften the impact on low-income families, the government has opened new, mobile markets offering basic products at discount prices, and the army has fed and distributed basic goods to the poor in highly publicized events. El-Sissi and other officials have meanwhile tried to deflect some blame about higher costs toward alleged manipulation by dishonest traders. “Although giving out bags of basic goods is good and it helps, it cannot be a solution,” said economist Omar el-Shenety of Cairo-based investment bank Multiples Group, adding that inflation has more “chronic” causes. Egypt’s imports are more than double its exports and include essential basic goods like wheat, which must be bought in dollars. In March, Egypt’s central bank devalued the pound by over 14 percent, setting the dollar at 8.85 pounds compared to 7.73 previously. On the black market, traders are paying up to 11 pounds per dollar. In an attempt to shift demand inwards, the government has raised import duties on several products, especially those it labels as luxury goods — including nuts and fruits frequently sold in Ramadan markets. It has also restricted some imports, which el-Shenety says exacerbates the problem. “The resulting lack of goods raises prices even more,” he said. Electricity and water bills are also rising, fuel is more expensive, and pharmacies are running out of some medications, fueling anger on social media. The government has severely cracked down on protests over the past two years, making it virtually impossible to air grievances in public. El-Sissi has called on Egyptians to “be patient” and urged them to donate to a fund created in 2014 called “Long Live Egypt.” He has also defended his decision to slash energy subsidies that year — a step long urged by international lenders but which his predecessors had not dared to enact for fear of a backlash. The move was welcomed by economists, who said the funds would be better spent elsewhere, but the higher costs have contributed to inflation. May’s inflation was also influenced by a Health Ministry decision last month to increase prices of some locally manufactured drugs by 20 percent, said economist Mohamed Abu-Basha of EFG-Hermes.(ap)

George Osborne says he will have to act to avert chaos and fill a 30 million pound ($42.4 million) budget “black hole” that government ministers say will emerge if Britain leaves the EU. He argued that income and inheritance taxes would rise. “No Conservative wants to raise taxes — least of all me,” Osborne said. “But, equally, Conservatives understand — and, indeed, I suspect many Labour politicians understand — that you cannot have chaos in your public finances.”

Furious members of his party backing Britain’s exit say they’ll block any attempts to impose an emergency “punishment” budget and warned that Osborne’s position would be “untenable” if he tries to push through tax increases. The opposition Labour Party also warned they would not support any budget that slashed public services. Vote Leave described the “remain” camp’s position as “hysterical prophecies of doom.” The back and forth underscores the outright civil war among the

Conservatives over the issue. The increasingly hostile campaign has largely and publicly pitted Prime Minister David Cameron’s “remain” camp against former London Mayor Boris Johnson for “leave.” A direct challenge to Osborne mires the party deeper into squabbles. “If he were to proceed with these proposals, the chancellor’s position would become untenable,” the 57 lawmakers who signed the letter said. “This is a blatant attempt to talk down the market and the country. The chancellor risks doing damage to the British economy in his bid to win this political campaign.”(ap)

President proposes Tito Karnavian as police chief candidate

Karnavian was selected for the post JAKARTA - President Joko Widodo has proposed the name of Commissioner General Tito Karnavian, currently chairman of the to improve the professionalism and National Counter-Terrorism Agency, as a candidate for the post of quality of the legal enforcement process, particularly against extraordinary police chief. “The name proposed by the president is Senior Commissioner Tito Karnavian,” Johan Budi, presidential special staff, revealed here, Wednesday. The head of state has sent a letter naming the police chiefs candidate to the House of Representatives (DPR) on June 15. “The president has complete authority to appoint the national police chief

candidate, and it is his prerogative right,” he emphasized. However, while selecting Karnavian, the president had sought inputs from various parties, including the National Police Commission (Kompolnas), the Police chief, and the public, Budi remarked. Karnavian was one of the names proposed by Kompolnas, he stated.

crimes, such as terrorism, drug trafficking, and corruption, he noted. Besides this, the national police is also expected to intensify synergy with other legal enforcement agencies. The DPR is expected to hold a plenary session on June 28, 2016, to decide on the candidate for the post of police chief. The current police chief, General Badrodin Haiti, will enter retirement period in July 2016.(ant)

JAKARTA - The Framework Convention on Tobacco Control Youth Movement (GM-FCTA) has called on President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) to protect children from the dangers of cigarettes in the interest of the nation. “The nations key interest is to protect the Indonesian people, so that in this case, safeguarding children from the dangers of cigarettes must be given priority,” GM-FCTA spokesman Margianta Surahman noted in a press release here on Wednesday. Gian, as Margianta is popularly called, said accession to the World Health Organization Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (WHO FCTC) is a commitment made by the government of a country to protect the future of its healthier and more productive people. According to Gian, the accession to the FCTC has the ultimate goal of serving the nations interests, not only in terms of protecting the peoples health but also driving economic growth. “Therefore, we, the younger generation of Indonesia, are still waiting for President Jokowi, as the vanguard for the protection of people, to take part and make a commitment to undertake efforts to curb the use of tobacco,” he emphasized. At a limited meeting on the FCTC on Tuesday, President Jokowi reminded his minister of the importance of prioritizing the nations interests and to evaluate various aspects before reaching a decision. With regard to accession to the FCTC, the president said Indonesia was not willing to merely follow the trend, but it should really take into account the nations interests, particularly with regard to the the health of citizens to safeguard the younger generations in future. Earlier, Indonesian Minister for Woman Empowerment and Child Protection Yohana Yambise had expressed concern over the increase in the number of child smokers in the country. “A total of 54 percent of Indonesian children are now smokers,” she remarked after a limited cabinet meeting on the FCTC led by President Joko Widodo on Tuesday. Yambise has vowed to wean away children and women from smoking as it could cause lung cancer, miscarriage, cervical cancer, and heart problems. The minister urged to put in place a special rule to save people, especially women and children, from the harmful habit of cigarette smoking. “We already have Presidential Regulation Number 109 of 2012 that bans children from smoking, but shops still sell cigarettes to them. A tighter regulation is needed. In other countries, cigarettes can only be sold at shopping malls,” she stated. Yambise appealed to issue a regulation necessitating cigarette buyers to present their IDs to prove they are at least 18 years of age or above. “The regulation must be in the form of a bylaw. Sanctions must be imposed against those selling cigarettes to children,” she added. President Widodo told Minister Yohana that the issue would be discussed further in the next meeting. “Not everyone can be allowed to buy cigarettes, especially children. Parents must also face some punitive measures if they allow their children to smoke,” she stressed.(ant)

Hajj officials urged to maintain professionalism

JAKARTA - Religious Affairs Minister Lukman Hakim Saifuddin has called on all Hajj officials to maintain professionalism and exercise good self-control while providing services to the pilgrims. “Do your job professionally and with responsibility. Make sure you are in good control of your emotions while carrying out your

tasks,” the minister stated while opening a training course for Hajj officials for the 2016 Hajj pilgrimage season at the Pondok Gede Hajj Dormitory in East Jakarta on Tuesday. The minister pointed out that the Hajj officials would require to demonstrate good professionalism and self-control to handle various

on-field problems. Saifuddin mentioned the weather forecast pointing to a severe heat wave during this years pilgrimage season. Since there are several Hajj pilgrims with high health risks; hence, the officials should take heed of this matter. The minister underscored the important roles of Hajj officials

in boosting the satisfaction index of Hajj pilgrims over the services offered by the government. This year, the government will send some 168,800 would-be Hajj pilgrims to the Holy Land, Saudi Arabia, to perform the rituals. The pilgrims will be assisted by 826 Hajj officials deployed across Mecca, Medina, and Jidda. Of the

stationed Hajj officials, some 300 are medical workers. The opening event of the course for Hajj officials was also attended by Commission VIII Chairman of the House of Representatives Ali Taher Parasong and Director General for Hajj and Minor Hajj Affairs of the Ministry of Religious Affairs Abdul Djamil.(ant)

Obama to meet the Dalai Lama at White House on Wednesday

WASHINGTON - U.S. President Barack Obama will meet the Dalai Lama at the White House on Wednesday, a move certain to anger China which considers the exiled Tibetan Buddhist spiritual leader a dangerous separatist. Obama and the Dalai Lama will meet privately at 10:15 a.m. (1415 GMT), a White House statement said. Earlier on Tuesday, China warned the United States to stick by its promises not to support any separatist activities. In an interview with Reuters on Monday, the Dalai Lama had said it was possible he would meet Obama and on Tuesday Taiwan announced that its new president would make a transit stop in the United States next week. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang said both issues touched on the “one China” policy, a basic diplomatic tenet referring to both Taiwan and Tibet being part of China that Beijing insists foreign governments recognize. Lu said the United States had said it opposed Taiwan’s indepen-

dence and recognized that Tibet was an inseparable part of China. “We demand the U.S. government earnestly stands by its promises, conscientiously handle the relevant issue in accordance with the one China principle and not give any space to any individual or behavior which tries to create two Chinas, one China one Taiwan, or to split China,” he said. Obama met the Dalai Lama when the latter visited Washington in 2014 and angered China then when he vowed “strong support” for Tibetans’ human rights. The Dalai Lama says he wants genuine autonomy for Tibet rather than independence. He told Reuters Obama was a “a long-time friend” whom he admired for his work to normalize relations with Cuba, on Iran and for his recent visits to former U.S. foe

Vietnam and the site of the Hiroshima atomic bombing in Japan. Asked how Beijing (Peking) might respond to a meeting, the Dalai Lama said: “I don’t know - you should ask them. I think in Peking, we cannot as of now ... generalize. In Peking there are different views. Some people there have a more realistic view. Some are more hardline, which is more narrow-minded.” Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen will transit in Miami on her way to Panama, one of the island’s few diplomatic allies, and stop over in Los Angeles on her return, Taiwan’s deputy foreign minister, Javier Ching-shan Hou, said. China is suspicious of Tsai, who assumed office last month, as she is also head of the pro-independence Democratic Progressive Party. Travel abroad is sensitive for Taiwanese leaders who have angered China as it is seen as exerting sovereignty. Tsai’s trip will run from June 24 to July 2 and include Paraguay. (rtr)

Federal grand jury could charge wife of Orlando shooter

ORLANDO - A federal grand jury has been convened to look into possible wrongdoing by the wife of the gunman who killed 49 people at an Orlando gay nightclub, and criminal charges could be brought against her early as Wednesday, a law enforcement source said. Omar Mateen’s wife, Noor Salman, knew of his plans for what became the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history, said the law enforcement source who has been briefed on the matter. “It appears she had some knowledge of what was going on,” said U.S. Senator Angus King, a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, which received a briefing on the attack. “She definitely is, I guess you would say, a person of interest right now and appears to be cooperating and can provide us with some important information,” King told CNN. Salman was with Mateen when he cased out possible targets for an attack in the past two months, including the Disney World resort in April, then a shopping complex called Disney Springs and the Pulse nightclub in early June, CNN and NBC reported. Mateen, who was shot dead by police after a three-hour standoff at the Pulse club early on Sunday, called 911 during his shooting spree to profess allegiance to various militant Islamist groups. Federal investigators have said he was likely self-radicalized and there was no evidence that he received any instructions or aid from outside groups such as Islamic State. Mateen, 29, was a U.S. citizen, born in New York of Afghan

immigrant parents and worked as a security guard. “He appears to have been an angry, disturbed, unstable young man who became radicalized,” President Barack Obama told reporters. Mateen was systematic during his rampage, working his way through the packed club shooting people who were already down. He apparently wanted to ensure they were dead, said Angel Colon, a wounded survivor. “I look over and he shoots the girl next to me and I was just there laying down and thinking: ‘I’m next, I’m dead,’” he said. Mateen shot him twice more, one bullet apparently aimed for Colon’s head striking his hand, and another hitting his hip, Colon said at Orlando Regional Medical Center, where he is one of 27 survivors being treated. Vigils for the dead continued on Tuesday in Orlando. Hundreds of students gathered to pray and sing in the evening at the University of Central Florida. They shone cellphone flashlights during a reading of the names of the dead including two alumni. Salman’s mother, Ekbal Zahi Salman, lives in a middle-class neighborhood of the suburban town of Rodeo, California. A neighbor said Noor Salman only visited her mother once after she married Mateen. Noor Salman’s mother “didn’t like him very much. He didn’t allow her (Noor) to come here,” said neighbor Rajinder Chahal. He said he had spoken to Noor Salman’s mother after the Orlando attack. “She was crying, weeping.” (rtr)

LONDON - Five-times grand slam champion Maria Sharapova is seeking to have her two-year doping ban wiped out or reduced as she lodged an appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) on Tuesday. The 29-year-old Russian was banned by the International Tennis Federation (ITF) earlier this month following a positive test for the banned drug meldonium during January’s Australian Open. “In her appeal to the CAS, Ms Sharapova seeks the annulment of the Tribunal’s decision to sanction her with a two-year period of ineligibility further to an anti-doping rule violation,” sport’s highest tribunal said in a statement. “Ms Sharapova submits that the period of ineligibility should be eliminated, or in the alternative, reduced.” The statement added that her case had been expedited and a ruling would be made by July 18 at the latest, which means Sharapova still harbours hopes of competing at the Rio Olympics in August provided her ban is reduced to time already served. The former world number one was named in Russia’s official entry list for the Olympics tennis tournament.

Sharapova had called the ITF’s ruling “unfairly harsh” as an independent tribunal had found that she had not intentionally violated anti-doping rules. Meldonium was added to WADA’s list of banned substances at the start of the year after mounting evidence that it boosted blood flow and enhanced athletic performance. The World Anti-Doping Agency said in a statement on Tuesday that it reviewed the tribunal’s decision and confirmed it would not be using its independent right to appeal to CAS. About 180 athletes have tested positive for the drug, manufactured in Latvia and common throughout eastern Europe, since January. Sharapova stunned the sporting world in March when she announced that she had tested positive for meldonium, a component of a product named Mildronate which she has taken since 2006 for health issues.

from a 3-1 deficit in the NBA Finals and win the championship. They will host the Warriors in Game Six on Thursday. “I finally did a great job of not turning the ball over and got to my spots, got my teammates involved. Just tried to put us in position to be successful,” James said after Game Five. “Obviously it’s not always a bed of roses on the court for 48 minutes, but you just try to go out there and trust your keys. That’s something I’m very comfortable with, and I’ve been comfortable with before in the past.” James, one of the greatest NBA players of all-time, had been criticised by some onlookers early in the series for failing to step up and take over in a Finals game. But thanks to James, whose 16 rebounds and seven assists were more than any other player on the court during Game Five, the Cavaliers appear to have a legitimate chance to pull off the greatest NBA

Finals escape act. Cleveland will surely like their chances back at the Quicken Loans Arena, where they have lost once all postseason. And if they manage to force a decisive seventh game back in Oakland, all the pressure would be on the top-seeded Warriors. “We get to go back home, and we’ve played well there all year,” said Cavaliers forward Kevin Love. “We love playing there in front of the home fans, so this is a good opportunity for us to get one.” But the Warriors, who won a record 73 wins during the 82-game regular season, are not about to panic as the championship repeat they have targetted since the start of the season in October remains one win from reality. For the Warriors, another NBA title would be the only way to crown their record-setting season. “So we go back to Cleveland and tee it up again,” said Warriors coach Steve Kerr. “But I like our position a lot better than theirs.” (rtr)

Spain’s goalkeeper David de Gea controls the ball during a training session at the Sports Complex Marcel Gaillard in Saint Martin de Re in France, Tuesday, June 14, 2016. Spain will face against Turkey in a Euro 2016 Group D soccer match in Nice on Friday.

Spain will stick to its possession game at Euro 2016

SAINT-MARTIN-DE-RE — Spain is going to stick to its game of quick passing and ball possession. One game into the European Championship and it’s obvious that the two-time defending champions are not changing their style despite their World Cup debacle two years ago, when the tiki-taka failed and Spain didn’t make it past the group stage. When the team plays Turkey on Friday in Nice in its second Group D match, Spain will be using the same formula that worked to perfection when it won the last two European Championships and the 2010 World Cup — keeping control of the ball and being aggressive with the final pass near the opponent’s goal. The strategy didn’t do much against the tight defensive scheme of the Czech Republic in the opener on Monday, when it needed a late goal to earn a 1-0 victory, but the match against the more offensive Turkish team should play to Spain’s advantage. “There are several ways of playing the game and they are all valid,” Spain midfielder Thiago Alcantara said. “It could be like they (the Czech Republic) played or by pressuring more up front. We have our own style and will use it

to try to win the games.” The Spanish had 67 percent of ball possession against the Czechs in Toulouse, the most of any team at Euro 2016 until then. They exchanged 694 passes with an effectiveness of 91 percent. They had 17 attempts and didn’t score more goals only because of a combination of poor finishing and a great performance by Czech Republic goalkeeper Petr Cech. “We haven’t done too bad in the last few years with this style,” said Spain coach Vicente Del Bosque, who has kept the same formula despite having to revamp the Spanish squad after several top players began to fade. Spain will have a chance to secure a spot in the quarterfinals with a win or even a draw against Turkey, depending on the result of the earlier Group D game between Croatia and the Czech Republic.

Spain and Croatia lead the group with three points each after opening 1-0 victories. Spain hasn’t lost to Turkey in more than 60 years, since Wo r l d C u p qualifying in 1954. It will be the team’s first meeting at a major tournament. Turkey, which was a semifinalist at Euro 2008 but missed the tournament in 2012, needs to rebound from the disappointing performance against Croatia to maintain its chances of advancing to the knockout stage. Coach Fatih Terim had two absences in training this week because, midfielder Mehmet Topal with a right leg injury and defender Gokhan Gonul with a stomach ailment. It was unclear if they would be ready in time to face the Spaniards at Stade de Nice. (ap)

SEATTLE — By the time Lionel Messi checked in at halftime, Erik Lamela, Ezequiel Lavezzi and the rest of his teammates had Argentina well on its way to the top spot in Group D of the Copa America. Lamela and Lavezzi scored 2 minutes apart early in the first half, Victor Cuesta scored his first international goal later in the half and Argentina dominated Bolivia 3-0 on Tuesday night to be the only team in the entire tournament to win all three group games. Messi subbed on at the beginning of the second half for his most extensive game action since Barcelona beat Sevilla 2-0 to win the Copa del Rey on May 22. In the time since, Messi suffered a back injury, testified in his tax fraud trial in Spain and scored a hat trick off the bench in a 5-0 win over Panama last week. But the goals came from his teammates as Argentina clinched a matchup with Venezuela in the quarterfinals. And all that dominance came with Messi relaxing on the bench, hearing his name chanted by the crowd throughout the first half as they eagerly anticipated the chance to see the best player of this generation coming off a memorable reserve performance just a few days earlier against Panama. “People want to see him. People pay all over the world to see him and he has to deal with that,” Argentina manager Gerardo Martino said through an interpreter. “Sometimes he has to play and sometimes he has to be on the bench but he has that obligation to follow through for the fans who are paying to be there. He has to live with that.” Argentina is in search of its first major international championship since winning the Copa America in 1993. “It’s time to think about Venezuela,” Messi said. “Win that game and advance.” Bolivia last beat Argentina in 2009, but that victory came at nearly 12,000 feet at home in La Paz. At sea level in Seattle, the Bolivians stood no chance. (ap)
