Kings of Leon reign atop Billboard 200 chart with ‘WALLS’

LOS ANGELES - Kings of Leon debuted at the top of the weekly U.S. Billboard 200 chart on Monday with “WALLS,” the first chart-topping record for the Nashville rockers. “WALLS,” the band’s seventh album, sold 68,000 albums, 27,000 songs and was streamed nearly 10 million times, totaling 77,000 album units, according to figures from Nielsen SoundScan for the week ending Oct. 20. Canadian rapper Drake’s “Views” climbed one spot to No. 2 this week, with sales of nearly 40,000 album units that in-

cluded 45 million album streams. “Views” has clocked strong weekly sales during its 25 weeks on the chart through the strength of its online streaming consumption. The Billboard 200 album chart tallies units from album sales, song sales (10 songs equal one album) and streaming activity (1,500 streams equal one album).

Other new entries in the top 10 of the Billboard album chart this week includes rapper The Game at No. 4 with “1992” and pop singer JoJo at No. 6 with “Mad Love.” Last week’s chart-topper, Green Day’s “Revolution Radio,” dropped to No. 10 this week. On the Digital Songs chart, which measures online single sales, The Chainsmokers’ upbeat dancepop hit “Closer” featuring Halsey remained at No. 1, selling 97,000 copies last week. (rtr)

There was no official confirmation from Moscow, but the report will raise tensions in the Baltic already heightened since Russia’s 2014 annexation of Crimea and is likely to cause particular consternation in Poland and Lithuania which share land borders with Kaliningrad. The reported deployment comes at a time when NATO is planning its biggest military build-up on Russia’s borders since the Cold War to counter Moscow and Russian military analysts said the move looked like a direct response to NATO. Izvestia cited an unnamed military source as saying that the two ships, the Serpukhov and the Zeleny Dol, had already entered the Baltic Sea and would soon become part of a newly formed division. The Russian Defence Ministry said earlier this month that the two

ships had left their Black Sea base to join Russia’s naval force in the Mediterranean. The Buyan-class corvettes are armed with nuclear-capable Kalibr cruise missiles, known by the NATO codename Sizzler, which the Russian military says have a range of at least 1,500 kilometres (932.06 miles). Though variants of the missile are capable of carrying nuclear warheads, the ships are believed to be carrying conventional warheads.

DENPASAR - The budget disbursed to the operation of Trans Sarbagita is quite fantastic, reaching IDR 18 billion. In the meantime, the revenue generated by this mass transportation mode does not even reach a quarter of the budget. On average the revenue of Trans Sarbagita only reaches IDR 2.5 billion annually. “There is a need for a budget

of IDR 18 billion and whatever is this intended for? This budget is very large. The use of the bus is very minimal but the subsidies are very large,” said Chairman of Commission III of the Bali House of Representatives, Nengah Tamba, in the hearing with the executive in charge of Transportation, Environment and Forestry at the Bali parliament building, Tuesday (Oct. 25).

Tamba requested to be given a rational calculation. If remaining to be operated, the Trans Sarbagita should not be let burden the regional budget. In the meantime, the major purpose of Trans Sarbagita to provide ease of transportation and resolve congestion is in fact not achieved. If this happens, it is better to transfer the budget for other priorities that are more useful for society. Manager of Trans Sarbagita, I Gede Gunawan, claimed that passenger of Trans Sarbagita has continuously increased since it was first operated in 2011. From only 191,859 passengers in 2011, it increased to 842,815 passengers in 2015. This year, the number of passenger is even predicted to reach 870,000 people. “The revenue is about IDR 2.5 billion. We are tar-

geting to reach IDR 2.7 billion. We have confidence that the two targets (the number of passengers and revenues—Ed) can be reached,” he said. Gunawan also explained that of the budget worth IDR 18 billion, only IDR 13 billion has actually been used for operating cost or service cost. In this case, it is allocated for the operation of Corridor-1 for Denpasar-GWK vice versa and Corridor-2 for Batubulan-Nusa DuaCentral Parking vice versa. Then, the remaining IDR 5 billion is allocated for supporting facilities such as bus stop, e-ticketing and salaries. “Operating cost of Corridor-2 is high because the bus is large. Suppose that we use medium size bus, I think the operating cost will automatically decrease. It can be compared to Corridor-1 operating medium bus, so that it does not need a high cost of gasoline,” he added. According to Gunawan, one of

the causes to low income of Trans Sarbagita is the incapability of building seven corridors as the target that should have been realized in 2015. As a result, no connectivity is established. In addition, some buses have been damaged so that they cannot be entirely operated. Although there is a striking difference between operating costs and revenues, he still considers that operation of the Trans Sarbagita should be continued. “The benefits of this service should not be viewed only from financial aspect. However, we must also consider in terms of socioeconomic aspect in the form of fuel savings, reduction of congestion and reduction of exhaust emissions,” he explained. Data of the Trans Sarbagita Unit indicate that since the operation in 2011 until 2015, it has been given annual subsidies with an average of 73.64 percent of the total service cost or IDR 7.3 billion.

Chief of Renon customary village, I Made Sutama, admitted that it is quite difficult to maintain the existence of paddy fields in urban areas. In his territory, for instance, actually quite a lot of paddy fields are still cultivated by the owners.

Moreover, the productivity of paddy fields at Renon is potential. In addition to rice, paddy fields at Renon are potential to be planted with various vines such as watermelon, melon, cucumber as well as other types.

and small-sized vegetables, while the lower plants cultivated may consist of corn, melon and watermelon. “This intercropping pattern has been commonly practiced at Renon,” said the former Irrigation Division Head of the Denpasar Public Works. Currently, many residents cultivate sweet corn because, in addition to easier, this commodity is more easily sold. As a result, local residents prefer to plant sweet corn. “Maybe because of easily sold, many people grow this corn,” he

explained. Sutama admitted the biggest challenge experienced by his residents is to maintain the wetland amid the great need for settlement area. One of the targets is the wetland. As a result, paddy fields are converted to established area. However, currently village authority has begun to design so that the existence of 54 hectares of paddy field can be maintained. “Hopefully, we can do this through regulations that we will make together,” said Sutama.

Glancing paddy fields at Renon

EXISTENCE of paddy fields in urban areas is increasingly difficult to sustain. In addition due to rampant land conversion, water availability is also increasingly difficult. Nevertheless, it does not necessarily mean that we cannot see paddy fields in urban areas as seen at Renon village, South Denpasar. Currently, some paddy fields are still cultivated by their owners, ranging from planting corn, melon, watermelon to rice.

Texas hospital reaches settlement with nurse infected with Ebola

AUSTIN- A nurse who contracted the Ebola virus while treating the first person diagnosed with the deadly disease in the United States has reached a settlement with the Dallas hospital where she was in a team caring for the man, a statement on Monday said.

REUTERS/Lisa Maria Garza/File Photo

Ebola survivor Nina Pham is reunited with her dog Bentley at the Dallas Animal Services Center in Dallas, Texas, U.S. on November 1, 2014.

Terms of the deal between the hospital’s owner, Texas Health Resources, and nurse Nina Pham, the first person infected with Ebola in the United States, were not disclosed. Pham sued last year, saying that Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital did not do enough to prevent her from contracting the deadly virus and invaded her privacy after she was diagnosed with it. “Texas Health Resources (THR) and Ms. Pham have resolved the pending lawsuit, and wish the best for each other going forward,” they said in a joint statement. They did not provide further details. In the lawsuit, which was filed in Dallas County, Pham claimed the hospital did not initially provide nurses with proper protective equipment or properly train staff on how to treat the disease. The lawsuit accused the hospital of negligence and deception. It did not specify an amount in damages. The hospital has denied the claims. Pham was one of two nurses at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital who contracted the disease when treating Thomas Duncan, who was admitted in September 2014 and died less than two weeks later. Both nurses recovered. Duncan contracted the disease in Liberia. Pham, who was 26 then, became a national symbol of hope in fighting Ebola after she recovered and was greeted in the Oval Office by President Barack Obama. Pham claimed the hospital used her as a “public relations pawn” to improve its plummeting image. While it issued news releases saying her condition had improved to “good,” it was having end-of-life conversations with her, Pham alleged in her lawsuit. (rtr)

Babies should sleep in parents’ room to help prevent SIDS INFANTS should sleep in the same bedroom as their parents for at least the first six months of their lives to minimize the risk of sleep-related deaths, according to new guidelines from U.S. pediatricians. Ideally, babies should stay in their parents’ room at night for a full year, according to recommendations released today by the American Academy of Pediatrics. Babies shouldn’t share a bed with parents, however, because that increases the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), the guidelines stress. The safest spot for infant sleep is on a firm surface such as a crib or bassinet without any soft bedding, bumpers or pillows. Sleeping in the same room, but not in the same bed, may reduce babies’ risk of SIDS by up to 50 percent, said Dr. Lori Feldman-Winter, a co-author of the AAP guidelines

and pediatrics researcher at Cooper Medical School of Rowan University in Camden, New Jersey. “Bed-sharing is potentially hazardous for SIDS, and this is most important for infants under four months of age and those who were premature or low birth weight,” Feldman-Winter added by email. The new guidelines also encourage skin-to-skin contact as soon as possible after birth to help prevent SIDS. With cesarean deliveries, mothers can do this with their babies as soon as they are awake and alert after surgery and, in the meantime, fathers or other caregivers can provide skin-to-skin contact to newborns. Breastfeeding can also help prevent SIDS, but mothers still shouldn’t sleep with babies in their beds to make nursing more convenient in the middle of the

night, according to the guidelines, published in Pediatrics. SIDS has become much less common in recent decades as doctors have urged parents to put infants to sleep on their backs without pillows or other soft bedding and toys that could pose a suffocation risk. But it still remains a leading cause of infant mortality, killing about 3,500 babies a year in the U.S. alone, according to the AAP. These deaths can be caused by a variety of factors including brain abnormalities or respiratory problems in babies as well as sleeping face down on fluffy surfaces or surfaces that pose a risk of suffocation. “The majority of sleep-related infant deaths occur when babies are sleeping on their stomach, or with soft bedding nearby, or when bed-sharing with their mother, other caregiver or other family

members,” said Dr. Fern Hauck, a pediatrics researcher at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville who serves on the AAP task force on SIDS. “The new guidelines emphasize the importance of placing infants on their back for EVERY sleep, naptime or nighttime, at home, at grandma’s, at daycare and placing babies in a crib or bassinet with a firm mattress, without pillows, soft/ loose blankets, bumper pads, or other soft objects, in mother’s/parent’s room close to her bed,” Hauck added by email. “All of these steps will allow for open flow of air to the baby.” Roughly one in five sleeprelated infant deaths occur outside the home, according to a separate study published in Pediatrics. Researchers examined data on almost 12,000 infant sleep-related deaths from 2004 to 2014.

Compared to babies who died at home, infants who died outside the home were more likely to be found sleeping on their stomachs or in a stroller or car seat instead of a crib or bassinet, the study found. They were also less likely to be with their parents. “Parents often assume that when other people take care of their infant, they also know about infant sleep safety. That is definitely not true,” said senior study author Dr. Jeffrey Colvin, a pediatrics researcher at Children’s Mercy Kansas City. “Parents need to make sure that everyone taking care of their baby follows the A-B-Cs of safe sleep,” Colvin added by email. “Their infant should always be placed to sleep ‘A’ Alone, with no bed sharing or objects in the sleep area, ‘B’ on their back, and ‘C’ in a crib or bassinet only.” (rtr)

IDI Bali has law on medical education revised

Bali parliament writes recommendations to central govt

DENPASAR - The Indonesian Medical Association (IDI) of Bali performed peaceful action in the Bali parliamentary building, Monday (Oct. 24). Hundreds of attending physicians asked the parliament to participate in voicing their aspiration regarding the revision of Law No.20/2013 on Medical Education to the central House of Representative. This action is the aftermath of the rejection by the IDI Bali against the education of medical primary service (DLP), especially the clause listed in Articles 7 and 8 of the law. “We would like this law can be evaluated by removing Article 7 and Article 8, so that later on medical education will not take place too long,” said Chairman of the IDI Badung, I Gede Putra Suteja accompanied by Chairman of IDI Bali, Dr. Kompiang Gautama. According to Suteja, DLP education takes 3 years so that prolongs medical education to 11 years just to be able to work at primary health facilities such as health center. It does not mean that his association does not support the strengthening of primary care. However, in this case the problem does not lie in the physicians. “However, the problem lies in the healthcare system, education system, referral system and financing system. This system can be addressed, not the services in need of improvement. For instance, when a restaurant is crowded with visitors, why should we send the waiters or waitress to school? It is better for us to establish a new cozy restaurant,” explained the man who is also Head of the Badung Health Agency. Chairman of the IDI Bali, Dr. Kompiang Gautama, said that DLP education will also result in problems for health services in primary health facilities. General physicians on duty in the health facilities will be continuing their education for three years. Moreover, currently there have been several medical colleges began offering the DLP education. “The

measure for that has been available. Udayana University, for instance, has established training of trainers,” he said.

Actually, continued to Kompiang, without any DLP education, general physicians graduated by Udayana University has owned adequate competency. Besides, Udayana University has many doctors and professors with accreditation A. On the other hand, he was worried that a long period of study in the future will reduce the interest of community to become a physician. Related to this matter, Chairman of the Bali House of Representatives, Nyoman Adi Wiryatama, will im-

mediately make a recommendation so that the law on medical education could be revised. Existence of this law does not create comfort, but even causes unrest. He was worried that health problems will not comply with what is expected together. “In our opinion here, if higher education is less perfect, make it perfect. Well, higher education has been carrying out education well, in fact, beyond it there are rules requiring medical profession to take additional education, so that to become a physician will be long

and tedious,” he said. On the other hand, continued Wiryatama, many physicians are now required because of the growth in population. If new physicians can just open practice after studying for 11 years, it will not be beneficial for the community. “There will be a gap in the medical profession. It does not accelerate services as we expect but results in abandonment. We are worried about this. On that account we agree and recommend the revision of the law,” he said. (kmb32)

Proved to have robbed, a Russian citizen sentenced to 1.5 years DENPASAR - As found guilty of robbery or theft with violence at a money changer on Jalan Uluwatu, Ungasan, a traveler from Russia, the defendant Kriunov Pavel, was sentenced to 1.5 years in prison, Monday (Oct. 24). In the trial held in Sari Room of Denpasar District Court, the judges led by Esthar Oktavi said that the defendant is proved and convincingly guilty of committing theft and violence against a woman posing the attendant of money changer. By the judges, the defendant was charged under Article 365 Paragraph 1 of the Criminal Code. “We declare the defendant guilty. On that account, we sentence the defendant for a year and six months in prison,” said the judge. Of that decision, both the prosecutor and the defendant stated to accept the judge’s decision. Earlier, prosecutor Kadek Wahyudi Ardika before the panel of judges led by Esthar Oktavi declared that the defendant was guilty of theft with violence against women guarding the money changer, so that he is sentenced to jail for two years. Thus, judge’s verdict is six months lower than prosecutor’s prosecution. As reported previously, the indictment mentioned the acts of the defendant committing the theft on July 28, 2016 around 10:50. Before the robbery, the defendant riding a Honda Vario motorcycle with license plate DK 4333

VR and parked his motorcycle in front of the money changer and directly came into the office and met a teller. When asked by the witness Ayu Agustina (teller) whether the defendant wanted to exchange money, the defendant even ignored. Conversely, he even hit Ayu Agustina with the right hand. Immediately the victim yelled for help. Since the defendant felt to have been cornered, he hit and strangled once. At that time, the defendant asked the victim to go to safe deposit box and could steal cash worth IDR 28.7 million. When the defendant wished to run away from the money changer, the victim had fought back by pulling on the shirt of the defendant. Because the defendant was stronger, he was able to release the grip of the victim holding the clothes of the defendant. Ultimately this traveler would like to run away. Then, he was chased by witness Mulyono, Almerio Pinto and Putu Yasa after hearing the shout of Ayu Agustina asking for help. The witness hearing the cries of victims directly prevented the defendant by taking the key of perpetrator’s motorcycle remaining to hang down. At that time the defendant managed to escape by running towards Jalan Raya Uluwatu. Finally he was arrested by Almerio Pinto and handed over to police station. (kmb37)

POVERTY in Bangli district does not only ensnare people in rural areas. Similar condition also occurs in urban areas as experienced by Ni Wayan Suma, 60, a resident of Kawan village.

However, after traced further, in fact there are still people in the town center of Bangli whose life is in shortage like Ni Wayan Suma. Her home measuring approximately 2x3 meters is walled with brick. However, it is a pity when seeing the ceiling made of woven bamboo as having been badly damaged.

Leak can be seen at some points so that when it rains, the water will get into her room. “When it rains, I am forced to set up some buckets to hold rainwater,” said Suma, Monday

Considering such condition, her grandchildren, I Wayan Setiawirawan, 14, and Ni Nengah Widiantari, 13, are forced to sleep at their uncle’s home, located next to each other. “Another son, Ketut Wiji, is forced to work in Denpasar. When going home, he has no choice but stays at the home of her family,” said Suma while shedding tears. Apart from the difficulties of bedroom, the house is not equipped with kitchen and electricity. Cooking is only carried out on a porch in front of her house. It is very far from decent. In order to survive

amid the increasingly difficult conditions, this widow only relies on income from selling oblations in front of the Bangli Hospital. Her works do not always run smoothly. Occasionally she is expelled by the municipal police because of selling on the sidewalk. The proceeds obtained are only enough to buy rice. The desire to repair her house is only a dream and difficult to be realized. Wijana accompanying Suma said that condition of his house has actually been surveyed for several times by relevant agencies. Refurbishment program has been promised. Unfortunately, it is only nonsense. His house virtually tumbles down, while the help never comes. “Another resident, whose home condition is much more feasible, is quickly processed. A house compound even gets two aids of house refurbishment. It’s different from here (Suma—Ed) where we only get rice for the poor for only once,” he explained. (sos)

British banker’s torture video stuns jury in Hong Kong murder trial

HONG KONG - Filming himself torturing and killing a young Indonesian woman, British investment banker Rurik Jutting veered between boasting, remorse and describing the pleasure he derived from sexually brutalising the first of two victims. Footage taken from four hours of recordings on Jutting’s mobile phone formed the core of the prosecution opening on the second day of a murder trial in Hong Kong that has grabbed global attention. The 31-year-old Cambridge University graduate has admitted killing Sumarti Ningsih, a 23-year-old single mother, and another Indonesian woman, Seneng Mujiasih, in his luxury high-rise apartment two years ago. But he has pleaded not guilty to murder on grounds of “diminished responsibility”, while pleading guilty to the lesser crime of manslaughter. The four women and five men on the jury clenched their jaws and, at times, diverted their eyes as they endured an opening 20-minute segment of the torture of Ningsih. Tears welled up in the eyes of one middle aged male juror. Appearing topless, overweight and unshaven, Jutting appeared on camera, at times showing Ningsih’s body, and spoke with chilling calm in a series of monologues that he described as “narcissistic ramblings”. While the video was not shown to the public in the courtroom, journalists covering the trial could hear

the audio. “I just killed someone, first person I ever killed, I cut her throat in the bathroom.. .to be precise I cut her throat while she was bending over licking dirty toilet bowl,” he said. Jutting, who had held a high flying job at Bank of America in Hong Kong before his arrest, at one point filmed himself taking cocaine as he explained how he tortured Ningsih. “I treated her as a non person, a sex object. And that turned me on.” Bespectacled and wearing pale blue shirt, Jutting was flanked by three policemen as he watched what he had done on a video recording a judge said had been found on his iPhone. Jutting, who had attended Winchester College, one of Britain’s most prestigious private schools, shut his eyes, sometimes covering his face with his hand rather than look at the screen in front of him. BRITISH SCHOOLGIRLS Jutting used a belt, sex toys, a pair of pliers and his fists to torture Ningsih over three days before eventually slitting her throat with a serrated-edged knife, according to the prosecution.

On the recording, Jutting spoke in a relaxed, soft voice as he taunted, bullied and mutilated Ningsih, a single mother who had been visiting Hong Kong on a tourist visa. “Its better than being beaten isn’t it? Do not cry, take it like a good girl,” Jutting said as he described how he was going to put his fist into her. Jutting called his victim ‘Alice’ as he tormented her. While threatening to cut off her nipples he calmly said: “This doesn’t really hurt does it? You deserve some water don’t you? Just one more before some water.” After that video, others showing Jutting and Finfish’s mutilated, naked body were screened in an open court room. In one, Jutting spoke of a “fantasy” to kidnap three teenaged girls from Wycombe Abbey, a girls’ boarding school in High Wycombe, a town northwest of London. As he listened to that passage, Jutting shook his head in the courtroom while holding a hand over his face. In one scene he urinated into a beer glass as he expressed fears of being jailed in Hong Kong, planning to return to Britain to co-operate with authorities. In another, he played the song Disturb by pop artist Rhianna as he lays out freshly-purchased hardware store “goodies” he plots to use on another victim - a hammer, and nails, pins and sandpaper.

S.Korea’s Park apologises for seeking friend’s advice SEOUL - South Korean President Park Geun-hye made a rare public apology on Tuesday for showing a friend drafts of speeches, as she sought to refocus attention on a proposal to amend the constitution so that presidents can serve more than one term. Television network JTBC reported late on Monday that drafts of Park’s speeches from 2012 to early 2014 had been found in the computer used by the friend, Choi Soon-sil. The drafts were received hours and days before the remarks were publicly delivered. During recent weeks, media reports have alleged that Choi wielded inappropriate influence over Park and that she used her acquaintance with the president to benefit her family and business partners. Park said in a televised address from the presidential Blue House that she had received feedback from Choi early in her term over how well she was communicating ideas, but said she had stopped seeking this advice once her office was fully staffed. “I had done it out of the sincere intention to be more meticulous in looking over things, but whatever the intention was, I am sorry I have caused concern among the people and caused alarm and heartache,” she said, bowing deeply. The reports of the speeches came hours after Park delivered proposals for constitutional amendment to allow presidents to serve multiple terms or establish a parliamentary system, saying the single-term presidency has served its purpose. The reports suggesting Choi had early access to Park’s speeches and personnel decisions before they were made public immediately dominated the news cycle, however, overshadowing the president’s major reform proposal. The controversy has led some opposition members of parliament to question Park’s motive for making a sudden proposal as significant as constitutional reform, although it was welcomed by her Saenuri Party. Currently, South Korean presidents are barred from serving more than one five-year term. Choi was seen in photographs with Park from 1979 when the president, as eldest daughter of then-President Park Chung-hee, was filling in for her mother who had been killed five years earlier by an assassin who had meant to kill her father.

Apple’s holiday surprise: big sales, not so big profits

International

Indonesia Today

Indonesia approves 2017 state budget with 2.41 pct deficit JAKARTA - Indonesia’s parliament on Wednesday approved the government’s 2017 budget, described by Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati as a “balanced budget”. The budget, at a deficit of 2.41 percent of gross domestic product, is bigger than the initial 2016 budget of 2.15 percent but smaller than the expected 2.7 percent deficit this year.

Apple Inc posted its third successive quarter of declining iPhone sales on Tuesday and forecast slimmerthan-expected profit margins over the upcoming holiday season even as it projected record sales, sending its shares down. The world’s most valuable publicly traded company said improved sales from China were around the corner, despite revenue falling almost 30 percent from the country in the latest quarter. It said sales so far to India have only scratched the surface. But a slight miss on fiscal fourth-quarter revenue and a projection of gross profit margins a touch behind analyst targets reflected broader concerns that Apple may have lost its tech superiority, even with the refreshed iPhone 7. “In essence, in China and elsewhere, while Apple’s products are still seen favorably, the distance between Apple and its competitors is nowhere near as great as it once was,” Neil Saunders, head of retail research firm Conlumino, wrote in a note. Apple shares fell 2.8 percent to $114.99 in after-hours trading. Chief Financial Officer Luca Maestri said in a phone interview with Reuters it was “impossible to know” if there was any effect yet from rival Samsung Electronics Co Ltd halting production of its fire-prone Galaxy Note 7 phones earlier this month. He also said that Apple was “supply constrained” and selling all the smartphones it could make. “It’s clear that Apple is bullish about growth in the iPhone, but there’s little evidence of that growth in the actual results

Bank Mandiri CEO Kartika Wirjoatmodjo (R) talks with Mandiri managing director Heri Gunardi during a news confrence at Mandiri headquarters in Jakarta, Indonesia, October 25, 2016.

Revenue and spending targets were both set below the plan for this year, at 1,750.3 trillion rupiah ($134.64 billion) and 2,080.5 trillion rupiah, respectively. Indrawati, a former World Bank managing director, had said previously that 2017’s figures were set taking into account the large shortfall expected from tax revenue this year. “With the support of the parliament, finally, construction of a more balanced and credible 2017 state budget can be completed, which hopefully can be an important instrument to boost a better national growth in 2017,” Indrawati told parliament.

Indrawati’s predecessor Bambang Brodjonegoro was largely criticised for setting unrealistic tax targets which led to a budget deficit crisis near the end of the fiscal year. Cutting spending and adjusting the revenue outlook were among the first things Indrawati did when she took office in the middle of this year to make the budget “credible”. The World Bank in its Indonesia Economic Quarterly report launched on Tuesday called the budget “more realistic”. Its economic growth outlook for Indonesia in 2017 of 5.3 percent is more optimistic than the government’s 5.1 percent, but its revenue col-

lection outlook for the year is $3 billion less than the government’s target. The bank also projected a larger fiscal deficit next year, at 2.8 percent, “assuming the government’s policy intent to maintain the momentum of public investment especially for priority spending such as infrastructure and social spending within the fiscal rule.” The bank was referring to Indonesia’s law which limits the fiscal deficit to a maximum 3 percent of GDP. Indonesia’s economic growth was 4.8 percent last year, the slowest since 2009. The government expects growth to reach 5 percent this year. The 2017 budget calls for an increase in cigarette excise tax and removal of some electricity subsidies. It also covers the government’s plan to switch the rice-forpoor programme to a cash transfer for 1.2 million households.(rtr)

Apple’s new iPhone 7 Plus is displayed at the Apple Store at Tokyo’s Omotesando shopping district, Japan, September 16, 2016. announced today,” said analyst Jan Dawson of Jackdaw Research. “Given that the iPhone 7 and especially the iPhone 7 Plus is in short supply, Apple is going to be a little constrained in its ability to take full advantage of the strong demand we’re seeing,” he added.

NATURAL PAUSE Apple said it sold 45.51 million iPhones in the three months ended Sept. 24. That beat the average analysts’ estimate of 44.8 million, according to research firm FactSet StreetAccount. Revenue fell 9 percent to $46.85 billion, a touch behind Wall Street targets, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S. Apple forecast revenue of $76 billion to $78 billion for the current, holiday-dominated quarter, ahead of the consensus estimate of $75.08 billion. If it hits that estimate, this quarter would be Apple’s biggest on record by sales, ahead of the $75.9 billion revenue it posted in the year-ago period. However, Apple offered a conservative outlook on profit margins, 38 to 38.5 percent, versus expectations of nearly 39 percent, said Mariann Montagne, senior investment analyst and portfolio manager at Gradient Investments. “I think people were a bit surprised,” said Montagne, whose firm holds Apple shares. Apple shares have outperformed the market over the last three months, and Edward Jones analyst Bill Kreher said the shares were taking a “natural pause” even though results were positive. The stock hit a 12-month low of $89.47 in May and has marched up since as investor confidence returned.

HOPES FOR CHINA Apple is still optimistic about its business in China, CFO Maestri said. While gross domestic product growth in the country has slowed, the economy is still growing, the middle class is expanding and smartphone ownership remains low, he said. Maestri said high demand for Apple’s newest iPhones made the company confident about results in the first quarter. The company’s net income fell to $9.01 billion, or $1.67 per share in the quarter from $11.12 billion, or $1.96 per share, a year earlier. That beat the average estimate of $1.66 per share. Apple’s fortunes are strongly tied to the success of the iPhone, which accounts for two-thirds of its revenue. Chief Executive Tim Cook also said on a call with analysts that India was poised to boom in smartphone sales as a more powerful 4G cellular network was put in place this year and next. He also hinted at potential future areas of business, commenting that media content creation and ownership was a great opportunity. Cook declined to say whether Apple was working on a car, as has been widely reported, but he called the industry “interesting.”(rtr)

JAKARTA - Islamic State supporters from Indonesia are travelling to join forces with their counterparts in the Philippines, raising concerns about cross-border violence, Indonesian anti-terrorism officials said on Tuesday. Authorities in Southeast Asia have been on heightened alert since a gun-andbomb attack rocked the Indonesian capital Jakarta in January and stamped Islamic State’s presence in the region for the first time. “Some (Indonesian Islamic State supporters) are training in the Philippines,” said A. Syamsu of the

Indonesian counter-terrorism agency. “There’s no exact number yet but it could be dozens.” Authorities across the region have in the last year cracked down on Islamic State sympathizers attempting to travel to Syria. That has forced many Indonesian radicals to use sea routes to travel to the Philippines instead making it harder to track their movements, national police chief Tito Karnavian said in an interview last week. Jakarta-based terrorism expert Sidney Jones, in a report that detailed links between Indonesian, Malaysian and Philippine

radical networks, said they are now increasing cooperation, making cross-border violence likely. “As getting to Syria becomes increasingly difficult for Southeast Asian fighters, Mindanao (in the southern Philippines) may be the next best option,” Jones wrote in the report. In June, militants who claimed to be fighting for Islamic State said in a video they had chosen the Philippines’ most wanted man, Isnilon Hapilon, to lead their Southeast Asian faction. The video, posted on social media, marked Islamic State’s

acceptance of allegiance from Southeast Asian supporters and called for them to launch attacks in the region. Hapilon is known to be a member of the Abu Sayyaf group based in the Mindanao region and known for kidnappings and extortion. He has a $5 million bounty on his head from the U.S. State Department for the kidnapping of Americans in 2001. Authorities in the Philippines say there are a handful of Indonesian and Malaysian militants in Mindanao. Malaysian police have arrested

more than 100 suspected Islamic State sympathizers this year and stepped up security in case fighters try to return from the Middle East in the wake of an ongoing offensive in the Islamic State stronghold of Mosul, Iraq. “In Malaysia, there have been a few attempted (attacks) so it wouldn’t be surprising if there are more around the region, especially if they were desperate,” said counter-terrorism chief Ayob Khan Mydin Pitchay, adding it was possible Malaysians were travelling to the Philippines.(rtr)

Special Autonomy Director General appointed as acting Jakarta Governor

JAKARTA - Home Affairs Minister Tjahjo Kumolo has appointed Special Autonomy Director General Soni Sumarsono as the acting governor of Jakarta. The appointment comes after Jakarta Governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama and Deputi Governor Jarot Saiful Hidayat decided to go on leave from October 28, following his decision to join the Jakarta gubernatorial election race. The acting governor would soon be officially installed at the ministrys office, Kumolo said here on Wednesday. In addition to Sumarsono, the minister also appointed other act-

ing governors, including Secretary General Yuswandi A Temenggung, Director General for Political Affairs and General Administration Sudarmo, Director General for Population and Civil Registration Zudan Arif and Director General for Community Empowerment Desa Nata Irawan. They will be installed as acting governors of Bangka Belitung, Gorontalo, Aceh and Banten, where gubernatorial elections will be held during the simultaneous regional head elections (Pilkada) in February 2017. Kumolo said he has signed the decrees and send the report to President Joko Widodo (Jokowi), Vice

President M. Jusuf Kalla and Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Wiranto. The Jakarta Election Commission (KPU DKI) officially declared the candidate ballot numbers in its plenary meeting at Jakarta International Expo here on Tuesday. Three pairs of governor and vice governor candidates have received their ballot numbers for the Pilkada 2017. The ballot number 1 goes to Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono and Sylviana Murni, ballot number 2 goes to incumbents Basuki Tjahaja Purnama alias Ahok and Djarot Saiful Hidayat and ballot number 3 goes to Anies Baswedan and Sandiaga Uno.(ant)

Four killed on river ride at Australia’s biggest theme park

SYDNEY - Four people were killed on Tuesday on a river rapids ride at Australia’s biggest theme park, police said, after a malfunction threw two of the victims off the seemingly innocuous ride and left the other two trapped inside. The tragedy at the Thunder River Rapids Ride at Dreamworld on the Gold Coast, the main tourist district in Australia’s northeastern state of Queensland, ranks among the world’s deadliest theme park accidents. “One of the rides sustained a malfunction, causing two people to be ejected from a ride, and the other two were caught inside,” Gavin Fuller, an official of Queensland Ambulance, told reporters. The four dead ranged in age from their early 30s to their early 40s. It was not immediately clear if they were locals or tourists,

police said. Shares in park owner and operator, Ardent Leisure Group , dropped 7 percent in the final hour of trade after the incident, having been little changed for most of the day. “Dreamworld will remain closed tomorrow as a mark of respect for the victims and their families,” Ardent said in a statement, adding that it was working with emergency services to establish what had happened. Asked if there were any earlier problems with the ride, Todd Reid, an inspector with Queensland Police, said, “I’m not aware, but that

will be part of the investigation.” The ride, meant to simulate going over river rapids, uses round floating devices that seat six, and can reach speeds of 45 kph (28 mph). It is described by Dreamworld as a “moderate thrill” attraction for those older than two. Witnesses recounted the scene on television. “There were kids onboard screaming while their mum was trapped under. I’d rather not talk about what I saw,” one unidentified man told Australia’s Channel 9. Visitors to the theme park, 48 km (30 miles) south of Brisbane, said they had seen repairs to the ride before the accident, but a Dreamworld spokeswoman told Reuters she was unable to confirm the reports.

Russia... From page 1

Izvestia said Russia’s Baltic Fleet, which is based in its European exclave of Kaliningad, would probably receive a further three such small warships armed with the same missiles by the end of 2020. It said the Baltic Fleet’s coastal defences would also be beefed up with the Bastion and Bal landbased missile systems. The Bastion is a mobile defence system armed with two anti-ship missiles with a

range of up to 300 km (188 miles). The Bal anti-ship missile has a similar range. Sweden’s Defence Minister said his country was worried by the presence of the warships in the Baltic Sea, complaining the move was likely to keep tension in the region high. Sweden’s military confirmed the two vessels had entered the Baltic, but declined to give further information. Russia’s Defence Ministry was not immediately available for comment. “This is ... worrying and is not something that helps to reduce ten-

sions in our region,” Defence Minister Peter Hultqvist told Sweden’s national TT news agency. “This affects all the countries round the Baltic.” Swedish media said the Kalibr missiles had the range to hit targets across the Nordic region. The Russian Defence Ministry said in August that the two corvettes had been used to fire cruise missiles at militants in Syria. Earlier this month, Russia moved nuclear-capable Iskander-M missiles into Kaliningrad leading to protests from Lithuania and Poland. (rtr)

Migrants gather near fires that burn at the end of the first day of the evacuation of migrants from the “Jungle” in Calais and their transfer to reception centers in France, October 24, 2016.

Demolition of France’s “Jungle” migrant camp set to begin

CALAIS - France will begin dismantling the “Jungle” migrant camp in Calais on Tuesday as several hundred more inhabitants queued for temporary housing in centres across France. More than 2,300 camp dwellers - more than a third of the total - left the filthy shanty-town outside the northern port by bus on Monday, with French officials celebrating the peaceful start of the operation after sporadic weekend skirmishes. An interior ministry spokesman said that the demolition operation would start by hand and that the bulldozers would not roll in immediately in an effort to minimise tensions. For many of the migrants fleeing war and poverty, the closure of the “Jungle” marks the end of a dream to reach Britain, which lies a tantalisingly short sea crossing away, where most had sought to reunite with family or find work. “We know the Jungle is over,” said Aarash, a 21-year-old Afghan as he made his way to the hangar where immigration officials are processing the migrants. “We will see if we can get on a bus today, but we want a good city, like one near Paris. If we can’t go there we will come back to the Jungle.”

The young migrant’s words echo concerns held by some aid workers that migrants who remain defiant to reach Britain or become disillusioned with the resettlement process will simply regroup in Calais at a later date. Nestled in the sand dunes, the Jungle is a symbol of Europe’s failed migration policies as member states bicker over who should take in asylum-seekers and economic migrants. Many have fled countries like Afghanistan, Syria as well as Eritrea and Sudan. London and Paris have been at odds over the fate of about 1,300 unaccompanied child migrants. The French government last week urged Britain to step up its efforts and resettle child migrants. On Monday, British Interior Minister Amber Rudd said Britain would take in roughly half of the camp’s children who are alone. “Then we will have done our commitment to the French,” Rudd told lawmakers in parliament. Six months ahead of a presidential election in France, the camp and border controls with Britain are hotly debated campaign themes. Some right-wing opponents of President Francois Hollande want all the migrants transferred to Britain. (rtr)

Spurs spoil Durant’s Warriors debut in 129-100 rout

OAKLAND — San Antonio’s Kawhi Leonard scored a career-high 35 points as the Spurs emphatically spoiled Kevin Durant’s long-awaited Golden State debut Tuesday with a 129-100 rout that sent Warriors fans for the exits early on the team’s opening night. Cleveland, who defeated the Warriors in last year’s NBA Finals, looked more assured in its opening game, sweeping past New York on a night the Cavaliers raised last season’s championship banner. Durant had 27 points and 10 rebounds, but little looked in sync for MVP Stephen Curry and the reigning Western Conference champions in a forgettable first game — and quite a different one after the Warriors dominated at home and came out of the blocks last season with a record 24-0 start.

Sp rt Ten-man Milan miss out on top spot in 3-0 defeat at Genoa

Life in Manchester ‘bit of a disaster’, says Mourinho

MILAN - Ten-man AC Milan missed the chance to take provisional top spot in Serie A as they slumped to a 3-0 defeat at Genoa with Gabriel Paletta sent off and Juraj Kucka scoring an own goal on Tuesday.

Genoa’s Serbian forward Nikola Ninkovic had opened the scoring after 11 minutes before Paletta was dismissed in the 56th. Kucka put the ball into his own net 10 minutes from time with Leonardo Pavoletti wrapping up the victory late on. Vicenzo Montella’s Milan stay third on 19 points from 10 games, two behind champions and leaders Juventus, who they beat 1-0 on Saturday, while Genoa jump five places to seventh on 15. Juve host Sampdoria on Wednesday when second-placed AS Roma, who are level on 19 points with Milan, visit Sassuolo. The 21-year old Ninkovic, often in trouble at his former club Partizan Belgrade for failing to control his temper, finally showed a glimpse of his vast potential when he fired Genoa ahead with a diving header for his first Serie A goal. Ninkovic, who joined Genoa in February but was immediately loaned out to Chievo Verona, was replaced by compatriot Darko Lazovic in the 54th minute moments before Milan defender Paletta was sent off for a lunging challenge on Luca Rigoni. That gave former Red Star captain Lazovic plenty of room to operate on the right flank and from one such raid Genoa doubled their lead when Kucka diverted the Serb’s teasing low cross past his own goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma. Pavoletti, also a second half substitute, made it 3-0 when he curled an unstoppable shot into the far corner in the closing stages as Milan fell apart at the back. The seven-times European champions looked a pale shadow of the side that impressed against Juve, showing they are still very much a work in progress under new coach Montella.

UEFA broke no rules in granting $4.4 million Slovenian loan

GENEVA — UEFA broke no rules when it sent a multimillion dollar loan for a betting company

investment by the Slovenian soccer federation, according to a document seen by The Associated Press.

The 4 million euro ($4.4 million) deal in June 2015 — which a UEFA report says was “granted in real exception” — has been scrutinized because it was signed off by thenUEFA general secretary Gianni Infantino and then-Slovenian soccer president Aleksander Ceferin. They have since won unexpected elections as presidents of FIFA and UEFA, respectively. A Norwegian magazine reported that FIFA ethics prosecutors are investigating Infantino’s part in the loan. It said UEFA flouted financial protocol to approve the money, and noted that FIFA’s code of ethics prohibits individuals from investing in soccer gambling operators. The UEFA disciplinary committee then asked its investigations unit to report on claims initially made by Scandinavian media last month. The inquiry report concluded that UEFA and the Slovenian federation “respected the relevant provisions and conditions” of granting loans to members.

The report notes that FIFA’s ethical rules on betting and integrity of matches relate to “persons,” not institutions. The code, therefore, does “neither apply to UEFA, nor to national associations,” the document concludes. Despite UEFA’s internal report, FIFA ethics prosecutors can independently seek evidence and demand witness statements. However, it is unclear if an early stage probe has begun. The investigatory chamber of the FIFA ethics committee said it would never confirm an ongoing preliminary inquiry. But that can lead to a formal case being opened, which would typically be announced. The multimillion dollar loan from UEFA was detailed last month after FIFA built closer links to Slovenia. In July, FIFA appointed Slovenia state auditor Tomaz Vesel to chair its independent audit and compliance committee and a panel which

sets salaries. Norwegian magazine Josimar reported that Vesel plays on an amateur soccer team with Ceferin, who it claimed was supported by Infantino’s staff in what became a landslide win for the UEFA presidency in September. Interviewed by the AP last week, Ceferin described reports seeking to implicate him as “mosquito bites” helped by an old guard of soccer insiders opposing him. “They had to try to invent some non-stories,” Ceferin said at UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, insisting the loan was “as clean as possible. We asked for a loan, it was a strategic investment.” The report says Infantino was not directly involved in Slovenia’s formal request in December 2014, which had “one sole known and well-documented aim” — to buy a 17.3 percent share of the state lottery Sportna loterija. The owners include the Slovenian Olympic committee and national ski federation. (ap)

Manchester United’s Paul Pogba celebrates scoring a goal during the Europa League Group A soccer match between Manchester United and Fenerbahce at Old Trafford stadium in Manchester, England, Thursday, Oct. 20, 2016.

TURIN — Juventus CEO Giuseppe Marotta has revealed that Paul Pogba’s agent will be paid 27 million euros ($30 million) for the player’s record transfer to Manchester United. Pogba returned to United in August for a world-record fee of $116 million. Marotta was quoted by Italian media as telling Juventus’ shareholders meeting Tuesday as saying “27 million (euros) will be paid to (Pogba’s) agent Mino Raiola. So the total net gain for Pogba was 72 million ($78 million)” after other fees are taken into account. Marotta says that Pogba joined Juve from United in 2012 for a bargain price of 1.5 million euros ($1.6 million). Marotta adds that Juan Cuadrado’s two-year loan from Chelsea costs 5 million euros ($5.4 million) per season and if Juventus wins Serie A this season it will be obliged to buy Cuadrado’s full rights for an additional 20 million ($22 million).

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has said he has struggled to adapt to life in Manchester, labelling his living arrangement in the city as “bit of a disaster”. The Portuguese has endured a mixed start to his stint as United boss, having lost three of his nine league games, including a 4-0 hammering at the hands of Chelsea on Sunday. Away from the pitch, the 53-yearold said he was far from settled in England’s north west city, staying without his family for the first time. “For me it’s a bit of a disaster because I want sometimes to walk a little bit and I can’t. I just want to cross the bridge and go for a restaurant. I can’t, so it is really bad,” the former Chelsea boss told Sky Sports. “Buy a house? I do not know, I do not know. The reality is that my daughter will be 20 next week, my son will be 17 in a couple of months.

“They are very stable. University in London. Football in London. Friends. So they are in an age where they can’t chase me like they did before. So for the first time the family lives in a different way. “We try to feel it, we try to see the evolution of our feelings and see how we cope with the situation.” Mourinho also expressed frustration at dealing with the constant attention of the paparazzi. “You know the history of the paparazzi. For the hotel and the brand that sponsors me, the clothes brand, it’s amazing because they are there every day,” Mourinho added. “Everybody knows the name of the hotel. Everybody knows the last arrivals of that brand. So, for them, it is amazing.” Mourinho will seek a quick response from his side after the defeat against his former side when they take on rivals Manchester City in the League Cup on Wednesday.
