Anyone been to Indonesia lately?

No...maybe Ibram? Why?

Corruption Indonesian style.

1. Send an cop out to sell pot to tourists.

2. Bust tourist.

3. Tell tourist if he/she pays a certain amount of money they wont be charged.

And that's just the start of it...

I understand that the penalty for selling drugs in that country is execution? But only for tourists.

When I rule the planet, there will be no corruption. I will make corruption illegal. :)

Tonchi....it depends how much you pay the judge. ;)

Ahhh...but what will the penalties for corruption be? I would suggest something publicly humilitating along with confiscation of worldly goods, to be given to orphans.

Death by Al Gore speech. That should set an example. :)

Ow. Would that be a scolding or a hectoring?

Which one of those is closer to crushing boredom?

Was that before or after they arrested Kofi's son for corruption and embezzlement of UN funds?

I remember also that the Philippines awaits with dread the latest ratings every year. They were number one for several years and they are proud that they are now only about number three :rolleyes: They just can't understand why all the multinational companies pulled their offices out of the country.

More like torture.

Gore: [crazy man voice yelling]You played on our fears!!![/crazy man voice yelling]
W: Ok, ok.....I admit, I did. Now stop for the love of God!
Dean:[crazy man voice yelling]Ahhh-ahhhhh!!![/crazy man voice yelling]

I say we just annex them. :) All two million little islands.

Government aside, they're such polite people (generally speaking).

The US needs more practicing Catholics.*



* - practicing Catholics, not practicing pedophiles

And all 250 000 000 citizens! Scarey thought for Oz if we get on the bad side of the Indonesians.

They've never done anything about the Oz fishermen who sink their boats for fishing in our waters though.

I guess maybe the govt over there doesn't really care that much about the people in the end anyway.
