Isi artikel

On Feb 8, 2007, former independence fighter Irwandi Yusuf will become the first democratically elected governor of Indonesia's Aceh province. Sealing the end of three decades of conflict, the Dec 11, 2006 elections were a huge victory for the Free Aceh Movement (GAM), an organization which turned in its weapons as part of an internationally brokered peace agreement in August 2005 in return for greater autonomy and rights to compete for political office. Irwandi now has a strong mandate, but governing the troubled province will require nothing short of political magic. Irwandi's first challenge will be to neutralize persistent infighting within GAM. Irwandi must give priority to addressing the needs of his primary constituents - GAM's former combatants and their networks of supporters. Irwandi's new administration will need to devise an economic development strategy that creates jobs, gradually turning young men and women who have known only fighting into productive members of a peaceful society.
