JAKARTA (Reuters) - A bid by Indonesia's first directly elected president to be closer to his people by publicising his mobile phone number backfired over the weekend, after thousands of calls crashed the line.
President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono announced the number on Saturday and said anyone could call or send text messages if they wanted to complain about government services.
At least our president thinks before he says things, even if that thinking is almost entirely centered around crafting enormous lies.
