Sorry, but I'm too busy working for crumbs to post anything meaningful today.
However, as I've stirred up some debate about the veracity and reporting of the poll suggesting that Indonesians want
sharia punishments ~ i.e. stoning folk as opposed to getting stoned, you might like to add your thoughts
here. Alternatively, add some thoughts to Indcoup's. We are personal friends, but we have differing opinions on this issue.For something different, Greenstump has got the local blogosphere talking about
littering and
racism.
All in all, it does look as if we now have a vibrant, active and discursive local blogosphere. It's taken a while, but the wait's been worth it.
More to check out:
Yosef Ardi for everything you didn't know you wanted to know about the rich and powerful. He posts 3 or 4 times a day.
Paras Indonesia for a very wide perspective on politics and society, inc. Condi Rice and Miss Piggy.
Now, for almost 40 years, Sesame Street, Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy - Miss Piggy, right - and who? Elmo? Come over here, Elmo. Come on, Elmo. Come on. And Elmo have been teaching children to read and to think and to explore different worlds. And so we're happy that we can bring Sesame Street to these kids and to other kids around the country. And I'll bet you'll find that you'll start creating some other characters, maybe some characters that would live here in Indonesia. So I'll look forward to coming back and to see what you created.
