JAKARTA - Chairman of the Indonesian Young Entrepreneurs Association (Hipmi), Mardani H Maming, is scheduled to testify at the Banjarmasin Corruption Court in the bribery case for mining permits in Tanah Bumbu. The Banjarmasin Police sent 300 personnel to guard the event.

The trial this time really sucked the attention. It's nothing, Mardani H Maming is the General Treasurer of the Executive Board of Nahdlatul Ulama (PBNU). That's why 1,000 members of the Ansor Youth Movement (GP Ansor) and the Banser for the South Kalimantan Nahdlatul Ulama Regional Management (PWNU) also came.

"We have deployed 300 personnel assisted by the South Kalimantan Police to secure the trial today", said the Banjarmasin Police Chief, Commissioner Sabana A. Martosumito in Banjarmasin, Monday, April 25, quoted from Antara.

The police appreciated and thanked the masses from Nahdlatul Ulama for being able to jointly maintain a safe and conducive situation during the trial.

In fact, the masses outside the Banjarmasin Corruption Court building can be orderly and not disturb the traffic of other road users.

"Alhamdulillah, good cooperation for Banjarmasin is safe and peaceful", he said.
