AROUND 70 people gathered on the porch of the private residence of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) at Cikeas, Bogor, on September 5. Most of them were retired military officers who graduated from the Military Academy in 1970. A few others were either civilians or businessmen. They were all activists in the Sekoci Indoratu, an organization set up to manage the campaign of the Yudhoyono-Jusuf Kalla team for the 2004 presidential elections.
