Petrus as known by the acronym of "Penembak Misterius" which means "Mysterious Shooter", is a nickname given to the perpetrator of the Petrus tragedy that happened in Indonesia from 1983 to 1985 (early 1980s). 

At that time, the high crime rate that happened in Indonesia led to the emersion of the mysterious shooter who will execute the criminals using a sniper from the far away distance. The victims of Petrus included some bad people of the government, people with tattoos, criminals, gangsters, and recidivists, although there is some report of wrong targetting victims. Estimated the number of victims of Petrus reached thousand of people because its spread in several regions of Indonesia. 

At That time, the Petrus operation was considered effective in eliminating criminals and reducing the crime rates in Indonesia. However, Petrus is a criminal act of human rights due to the violation of taking someone's life without using the legal law process.

Until right now, the Petrus case is still being investigated and we still didn't know who was the man responsible for the case. The Commission of Human Rights (KOMNAS HAM) Indonesia having difficulties in investigating this case because lack of information from several people who were considered to have a connection to this case such as some witnesses, some people from retired army/soldiers, and retired police officers.

A Holiday Job with a Difference

A Holiday Job with a Difference I am studying English at Exeter University. I'm on holiday at the moment and I am working in a public library. I'm lucky to have this job. I don't have to get up early. The library opens at 10 and closes at 7. It's interesting work because people are always coming in and asking me to help  them, so I am learning a lot about different subjects. I'm enjoying the job and finding it very amusing too. People use the strangest things as bookmarks. I have found a rasher of bacon (uncooked!). Matchsticks are common and so are bus tickets. My colleagues are always finding things too - even a £10 note, but I have not been so lucky! I often think of the photo of a beautiful woman that I found. On the back were the words: "I love you. I miss you and I'll never forget you."

Real Personal Service

Real Personal Service On our last visit to London my wife and I stayed at the Magna Hotel. The Magna used to be a favorite hotel of ours but we had not stayed there for over sixteen years. The hotel is famous for its service and we were not disappointed. "The porter will show you to your room," the receptionist said with a smile and we were shown to a room on the first floor. "This is our favorite room," I exclaimed. "I know sir," the porter said. "Yours is the room with a view, isn't it?" "That's right," I said. "You like milk in your tea in the morning and madam prefers lemon in hers." "That's right," my wife said. She pulled me by the sleeve with pleasure when the porter had gone. "Aren't they amazing? They remember our preferences after all these years. This is a real personal service!"
