'Accusation drive' - Indonesia president slam Australia’s gagging order exposed by WikiLeaks

Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono has rejected Australia’s attempt to cover up an alleged multinational corruption case. He said that the gagging order on the matter that could implicate him may only “trigger suspicions and accusations.”

WikiLeaks released a document Wednesday that it said was a court order issued by the Supreme Court in Melbourne on June 19.

According to the document, the court had banned any disclosure or publication of information concerning 17 current and past heads of state, politicians and other senior officials of Malaysia, Indonesia or Vietnam in connection to court proceedings of alleged multibillion-dollar briberies.

The whistleblowing website suggested that the corruption case centers on alleged inducements to secure contracts for the supply of Australia-style polymer banknotes by officials of the Reserve Bank of Australia’s subsidiaries and Note Printing Australia (NPA).

Seventeen people are listed in the court ruling, including "any current or former Prime Minister of Malaysia",

"Truong Tan San, currently President of Vietnam",

"Megawati Sukarnoputri, a former President of Indonesia (2001-2004) and current leader of the PDI-P political party" and “Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, currently President of Indonesia since 2004."

"Suatu polisi oleh Australia untuk menyembunyikan [didakwa penglibatan] individu bukan Australia tertentu adalah sesuatu yang saya tidak selesa dengan kerana ia sebaliknya boleh mencetuskan syak wasangka dan tuduhan," ‘The Sydney Morning Herald’ beliau melaporkan sebagai berkata.

Presiden Indonesia mengakui bahawa Bank Indonesia membuat perjanjian dengan NPA pada tahun 1999 kepada 550 juta mencetak wang kertas, tetapi bahawa Bank Negara yang mempunyai kuasa mutlak untuk mencetak nota-nota merupakan bukan kerajaan, badan bebas.

"Neither Megawati saya juga tidak masih belum presiden pada tahun 1999 Tetapi maksud saya adalah, siapa presiden pada masa itu, keputusan untuk mencetak wang kertas di Australia mempunyai apa-apa kaitan dengan kerajaan dan presiden," kata Yudhoyono.

Dokumen bocor yang juga mengatakan bahawa tujuan tersedak perintah itu "untuk mencegah kerosakan kepada hubungan antarabangsa Australia yang mungkin disebabkan oleh penyiaran bahan yang boleh merosakkan reputasi individu tertentu."

Tetapi penganalisis percaya bahawa bukannya melindungi hubungan antarabangsa, tersedak perintah sebenarnya mungkin membuat mereka lebih teruk.

Julian Assange, pengasas Wikileaks, berkata bahawa tindakan yang sedemikian penapisan oleh Australia adalah tidak wajar.

"Siasatan Rasuah & perintah lelucon rahsia atas sebab-sebab 'keselamatan negara' adalah rakan kongsi yang pelik. Ia adalah ironik bahawa ia mengambil Tony Abbott untuk membawa yang paling teruk nilai Asia ke Australia, "katanya.

Terdapat beberapa peningkatan baru-baru ini dalam hubungan antara Jakarta dan Canberra dakwaan berikut tahun lepas bahawa perisik Australia cuba meraih telefon daripada Yudhoyono dan golongan dalaman.

“Such a policy by Australia to hide [alleged involvement] of certain non-Australian individuals is something that I am not comfortable with because it could instead trigger suspicions and accusations,” The Sydney Morning Herald reported him as saying.

The Indonesian president acknowledged that Bank Indonesia made a deal with NPA in 1999 to print 550 million banknotes, but that the Central Bank that had the sole authority to print the notes was a non-governmental, independent body.

“Neither Megawati nor I were yet president in 1999. But my point is, whoever the president was at that time, the decision to print the banknotes in Australia had nothing to do with the government and the president,” Yudhoyono said.

The leaked document also says that the purpose of the gagging order was “to prevent damage to Australia’s international relations that may be caused by the publication of material that may damage the reputations of specified individuals.”

But analysts believe that rather than protecting international relations, the gagging order might actually make them worse.

Julian Assange, the founder of Wikileaks, said that such an act of censorship by the Australians was unjustifiable.

“Corruption investigations and secret gag orders for ‘national security’ reasons are strange bedfellows. It is ironic that it took Tony Abbott to bring the worst of Asian values to Australia,” he said.

There has been some improvement recently in relations between Jakarta and Canberra following allegations last year that Australian spies had tried to tap the phones of Yudhoyono and his inner circle.
