I'm not trying to be argumentative, Phoenix, but what could you possibly 'know from the inside'? For instance, have a look at the link on Champas latest post, the one pointing to Andrew Bolt's article in the Herald Sun. I believe his recounting of it as much as I believe anyones. My point is for every pro-Schapelle story, there is an anti-Schapelle story.
Baker, I appreciate you have your opinion. I also appreciate how hard it might be to govern all the different islands that make up Indonesia. And like many other nations, there are some problems between the diverse groups of people living there, making for some volatile and, indeed, lawless parts of the land. And as for corruption, well even the most powerful nations in the world have been accused of this in the past. But I don't believe this makes a case for needless fear-mongering and paranoia about Indonesia. And what has being a Muslim nation got to do with it? Remember, there is also a very large Christian population living there as well. In fact, the chief judge of Corby's trial is a Christian.
I appreciate your candidness and that you are confident in your opinions. I too have confidence in mine. I guess the best we can do is watch to see what will happen next.
