Dahlan Said He Was Not Afraid

Jakarta (Antara Bali) - State Enterprises Minister Dahlan Iskan said that he was not afraid and would tell more names of legislators that have allegedly extorted state-owned companies.

"Tomorrow I will submit more names and cases in writing to the House of Representatives' (DPR) Ethics Council (BK)," he said here on Tuesday after a ministry leadership meeting.

He said the names to be submitted to BK on Wednesday were apart from the two he reported when he met with BK officials on Monday.

According to rumors the two that have been reported to BK are Idris Laena from Golkar Party faction and Sumaryoto from the opposition Indonesia Democratic Party (PDIP) faction.

Dahlan said the names that he would submit on Wednesday would be full names not in the form of initials.

"They would not be in the form of initials but full names completed with an explanation about extortion methods used. The names we reported yesterday were also full names not in the form of initials," he said.(*/T007)
