Jakarta (Antara Bali) - Indonesian Vice President Boediono has denied a rumor that he intends to resign from his present position.
"I see a big question mark on your forehead, and I am not stepping down from the vice presidential post," Boediono told the press at his office here on Friday.
The rumor was denied by the vice president a moment before receiving United Development Party (PPP) central executive board (DPP) chief Suryadharma Ali.
Meanwhile, a PPP central executive board associate chairman, Lukman Hakim Syaefuddin, said there was no need to believe the rumor.
"There is also no need to assess this rumor, it's only a rumor. The vice president's integrity is beyond question," said Lukman, who is also vice chairman of the People's Consultative Assembly (MPR).
PPP General Secretary M Romahurmuziy said it was too naive for senior state officials to resign on the basis of dubious allegations.(IGT)
