Aznam, Suhaini. Wooing the clergy. (Nahdlatul Ulama's endorsements in Indonesia's national elections) Far Eastern Economic Review v155, n5 (Feb 6, 1992):16 (2 pages). Abstract: Indonesia's major political parties are trying to win the support of Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), the country's largest Islamic organization. The politically influential NU stated that it will refrain from openly supporting any party in the Jun 1992 elections. However, an unofficial political endorsement by the NU is still a possibility.
Cohen, Margot. Test of faith: politics intrudes into blasphemy trial. (indonesia) Far Eastern Economic Review v158, n34 (August 24, 1995):27 (2 pages). Abstract: Indonesian Muslims are split over the blasphemy trial of Permadi Satrio Wiwoho, with some saying he deserves worse than hanging and others claiming it is a govt plot. Public accusations against Permadi surfaced in Mar 1995, shortly after a military leader he had contradicted accused him of political agitation. The supposed blasphemy actually occurred in Apr 1994, and did not disturb the audience of college students. Now the govt seems to be painting itself as a defender of the Muslim faith, to the discomfort of many.
Engineering the future. (high technology enthusiast Bucharuddin Jusuf Habibie) (Survey of Indonesia) Economist v327, n7807 (April 17, 1993):I12 (2 pages). Abstract: Habibie is Indonesia's leading advocate of high technology industry growth. He believes if Indonesia is to take its place in the world economy, it must invest in industries such as aircraft and ship building. He is also an advocate for the empowerment of Indonesia's Muslims.
Schwarz, Adam. An act of faith. (launching of The Association of Moslem Intellectuals) Far Eastern Economic Review v151, n11 (March 14, 1991):20 (2 pages).
Schwarz, Adam. Islam and democracy. (Indonesia) Far Eastern Economic Review v155, n11 (March 19, 1992):32. Abstract: The Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) Muslim organization led by Abdurrahman Wahid has been politically inactive for years, but still wields political clout in Indonesia. The Suharto administration wants the NU to remain away from politics as it believes Islam is not a positive influence for Indonesia's democratic government. Wahid believes otherwise, and politically struggles for the merger of Islam and democracy. Political analysts view Wahid as an emerging force who will influence Indonesia's political evolution. However, Wahid is deemed too radical by Indonesian Muslim standards.
