Poisoned promise

Article Abstract:

Indonesian president B.J. Habibie has decided to allow East Timor to leave Indonesia, earning him acclaim from the international world and silencing his critics at home. Radical groups in East Timor want complete independence, but moderates, who have worked with Indonesian politicians to come to a compromise, prefer the alternative of political autonomy.
