JAKARTA - any adults in Indonesia are content with Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, according to a poll by the Indonesian Survey Institute. 67 per cent of respondents are satisfied with the president’s performance, up 12 points since March.
Yudhoyono—a security minister who ran as the candidate of the Democratic Party of Indonesia (PDI)—won the September 2004 presidential election with 60.62 per cent of the vote in a run-off over incumbent Megawati Sukarnoputri of the Struggling Indonesian Democratic Party (PDIP). The vote marked the first time Indonesian voters picked their head of state through the ballot box.
Earlier this month, the government announced it would undertake a massive land reform campaign to redistribute more than 7.4 million acres of land to farmers all across the country. Communications and information minister Sofyan Djalil said the initiative seeks to "rectify" some of the problems caused by the policies of former dictator Suharto, who ruled the country from 1967 to 1998.
On Oct. 13, Australian prime minister John Howard singled out Yudhoyono and Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf as "the greatest antidotes against Islamic terrorism."
