The Barber from the BNN

ComR. Gen. Anang Iskandar was shocked by the hundreds of text messages he had received on his cellular phone on last Thursday night. The head of the National Narcotics Agency (BNN) had just landed at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport after traveling for nearly 10 hours from the Fiji Islands.

Everyone had the same question: was the news of his appointment to replace Comr. Gen. Budi Waseso as the head of the National Police's Criminal Investigation Unit true? "And I thought Saud Usman was going to be the next head of the Criminal Investigation Unit as I read in the news when transiting through Hong Kong," Anang said in his office last Friday.
