In the first few months of the Sidoarjo troubles, they were somewhat low key about it all.

Now, however, a new competitor English paper is coming out soon and it’s apparent that the paper has some connection to/backing from Bakrie…. hmmmm.

So JP seems to have made the decision: “let’s capitalize on this mud story and make our competitor look bad” — Can you say crass mudslinging, boys and girls?

The disease is mutating! It now has two strains, perhaps A for those in high office and B for the peripherials and other hoi polloi? ;)

Saya biasanya tidak berargumen seperti ini, tapi apa staf kepresidenan tidak punya urusan yang lebih penting daripada mengurusi urusan remeh akun Friendster palsu? Bahkan sampai-sampai harus ditangani pihak kepolisian dan ‘pakar TI’ segala? Saya yakin ini adalah akibat dari Expertitis™, meminjam istilah Ong Hock Chuan. [...]
