Farrell, Vaughn set for ‘True Detective’ season 2 Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Colin Farrell and Vince Vaughn will star in the second season of HBO’s “True Detective.” The eight-episode drama series will begin production in California this fall, the premium cable channel said Tuesday. Farrell will play a compromised detective, Ray, who is divided between his loyalty to his bosses in a corrupt police department and a mobster with a hold over him. Vince Vaughn co-stars as Frank, a
criminal whose move into legitimate business is disrupted by a business partner’s murder. HBO had a critically acclaimed hit with the first season of “True Detective,” which starred the Emmy-nominated Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson. The air date for the second season was not announced. Season one of “True Detective” paired two actors known primarily for their big-screen work in a twisted, noirish tale. McConaughey and Harrelson played former Louisiana State Police detectives interrogated in 2012 about a
homicide case they’re shown working, in flashback, in 1995. The crime drama provoked some grumbling when it was entered in the Emmy Awards drama series category despite its abbreviated eight-episode run and the likelihood its stars wouldn’t return for the next go-around. “True Detective” ended up losing the best drama Emmy to “Breaking Bad,” while McConaughey and Harrelson also failed to grab Emmy gold — although the former, an Oscar winner this year for “Dallas Buyers Club,” was seen as the frontrunner.

DENPASAR - Commission XI of the House of Representatives of the RI has completed a banking bill draft and specified a maximum of 40 percent for foreign share ownership in the sector. This figure is still considered high because it can disrupt the national economic interests.

Commission XI of the House of Representatives of the RI has completed a banking bill draft and specified a maximum of 40 percent for foreign share ownership in the sector. This figure is still considered high because it can disrupt the national economic interests.
“We think 40 percent is still relatively high because the restriction in other countries is much lower. In the ASEAN, for example, foreign ownership has been set and should not be the majority,” said Chief of the BNI Economist, Prof. Dr. Wayan Ramantha, when asked for his confirmation, Tuesday (Sep 23). According to this professor of the Udayana University, the presence of rules prohibiting foreign investors from having a majority of share in the national banking sector aimed to maintain the economy, so that it would not be dominated, especially the strategic sectors. “The share of bank mostly owned and controlled by a national company will make the economic turnaround in the country can be immediately felt. In other words, bank poses a significant financial intermediation and determining business entity in a country. When the intermediation of a country is determined by other country, then the economy will not be good,” he said. Meanwhile, Director of the Center for Business Economic Data Analysis, Udayana University, Dr. Sudjana Budhi, stated that in the context of the ASEAN cooperation, the national foreign exchange bank should be directed to enter the ASEAN market, while the regional banks should be focused on domestic market share. Thus, there would be a wider movement space for the regional banks to take part in implementing the banking services. “Concerns on the occurrence of macroprudence can threaten the stability of the Indonesia’s economy. This leads to failure in achieving the target of domestic banks to international market which should have been achieved if the merger is made to all foreign exchange banks in Indonesia into a single bank entity,” he said.
