Five government leaders attend Yudhoyono's inauguration

This news I quoted from Jakarta Post on Tuesday 10/20/2009 :
Government leaders from Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei and East Timor are attending the inauguration of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono in Jakarta on Tuesday.
Australian Prime Minister Minister Kevin Rudd, Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak, Brunei Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah and East Timor Prime President Jose Ramos Horta all have arrived at the People's Consultative Assembly (MPR) building. Representatives from Japan, the United States, South Korea, New Zealand, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Czech Republic are also on attendance.
In addition to the foreign dignitaries, former president B.J. Habibie and former vice president Try Sutrisno were also among the guests. Megawati Soekarnoputri, who lost to Yudhoyono at the presidential elections, was absent, but her daughter Puan Maharani was there. Meanwhile, outgoing vice president Jusuf Kalla, who also lost to Yudhoyono at the elections, attended the inauguration. Megawati's husband, Taufik Keimas, the MPR speaker, will swear in Yudhoyono.
Today when I going to my office, I passed through Majelis Perwakilan Rakyat or People's Consultative Assembly building at Slipi, South Jakarta. Many police and army around there place. If usually day trip in this area always traffic jam, today is going worse. Beside traffic jam, Jakarta condition also so hot. Police and blockade and secure traffic infront building and we must looking another way to our destination place. This is take extra time. Be patient. The result, I came late to my office….. But not only me, my boss came late too…Ha..ha..ha.., he doesn’t angry because he came later than me…..
