"The reforms carried out in Indonesia have neither given birth to effective leadership, nor brought prosperity to the people yet," the MK chairman said here on Wednesday.
He was speaking to a national gathering of the Indonesian Muslim Intellectuals Association (ICMI), which discussed matters relating to the reordering of the political system, and regional autonomy in the country.
Mahfud said the failure of reforms in improving the welfare of Indonesian people could be seen in the high rate of poverty and unemployment.
"Experts might say the country's economic growth is good, but it has turned out that the rate of poverty and unemployment could not be reduced by a significant level yet," the MK chairman said. (IGT/T007)
