Indonisa Moving to Freedom of Expression

The Indonesian Constitutional Court issued a ruling last October 13 to strip the

attorney general of his power to censor and ban books. The Attourney General

has banned at least 22 books, including 13 history texts for middle schools and

high schools. These books were talking about a failed Communist coup of

September 30, 1965. This coup brought Suharto to power after the murder of

seven army generals.
