"The Indonesian government's planned reforms are totally inadequate ... The law says the government needs to get the military out of these businesses, but instead they will be allowed to remain in military hands. Promising to monitor them more closely simply isn't good enough."
Lisa Misol, senior researcher in the Business and Human Rights Program at Human Rights Watch "The Indonesian government says it wants to professionalize its military, but we’ve seen little evidence of real change. Troops are breaking the law, violating human rights and hiding the money they make on the side. Military reform means getting soldiers out of business and prosecuting those who broke the law."Lisa Misol, researcher with the Business and Human Rights Program at Human Rights Watch - June 21, 2006
