JAKARTA, May 12 (Xinhua) -- Indonesia was
disappointed on the illegal moves of China's Taiwan leader Chen Shuibian on
Batam island, stressing consistency on one China policy, Foreign Ministry
Spokesman Yuri Thamrin said here on Friday.
The spokesman said Indonesia deplored activities
carried out by the Taiwan leader beyond refueling contact and his stay here,
which was longer than the period given for refueling.
Indonesian expected the Chen's plane, China Airlines
CI1590 arrived here on 14:00 p.m. Thursday, to leave the airport after
refueling, but he stayed on the island until 10:00 a.m. on Friday, and conducted
some other activities, Yuri complained.
However, the spokesman said that there was no any
official contact during his stay on the island, in western part of Indonesia.
"I have checked the governor office (of Kepulauan
Riau province), there was no official contact," he noted.
Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono asked
the governor of the province to give a report about Chen's activity on the
island and warned the governor to pay a serious attention to the matter,
according to Indonesian chief security minister WidodoAdi Sucipto.
"We still stick on our one China policy, and we hope
our relation with China will persistently strong," Yuri told a pres conference.
He said the foreign ministry did not make any
arrangement, as it was a technical landing only.
"We expect this settlement can delete any possible
misunderstanding," said Yuri.
He said that Indonesian Foreign Ministry will
continue to coordinate with relevant parties to prevent this accident from
happening in the future. Enditem
