When asked about Indonesian bureaucrats habitually deceiving people, a friend of mine replied "Why asking? you know ... that's their daily work. They fill the job to deceive us." Se seemed amazed that considered a person familiar with Indonesian culture by conducting major research for a dissertation, I still disputed the demeanor of Indonesian bureaucrats. I must have not quizzed such a question for such deception, to his knowledge, is deliberately done every day.
You know Wahidah Sueib, don't you? As a vice deputy of BAWASLU (Badan Pengawas Pemilu), her face can be found in every media almost every day for almost every bureaucrat has been pretty occupied with election while the people like to follow its news closely. Reported by Detik.com (03.06.09) she said: "Kami ingin mengadakan ... pembekalan ... tidak dilakukan dengan datang ke luar negeri tetapi dengan cara ... pembekalan jarak jauh melalui internet." She said that she would rather use internet as a economically viable media to train and provide Waslu LN (Pengawas Pemilu Luar Negeri or Overseas-based Election Supervisor) with sorts of knowledge of supervision.
That is deception. As a bureaucrat or a public servant who shall tell us the truth of her job, Wahidah has deliberately managed to bluff us, the citizen of Indonesia, into believing a wrong statement. No such thing as "pembekalan jarak jauh melalui internet" has so far been or will be done in regards to providing Waslu (Pengawas Pemilu) with sorts of knowledge about election supervision.
So, do you think that Wahidah case is a single case insufficient to be generalized or her case is obviously a type of Indonesian bureaucrat that like to cheat the citizen? I bet the latter is the truth.
