 * I recognize the effect a Prabowo presidency would have had / would have on Indonesia. However, we must remember that Carey has had a 40-year career as an academic, and thus give the "controversy" as it may be the due weight. It is already 1/6th of the article's length, and ideally it should be much less - not more. Carey's notability (the reason there's an article on him) is his scholarship, not because Prabowo (mis)used quotations by him in the failed election campaign. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:11, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi Crisco1492, thanks for getting back to me and for your patience as I just now am learning how to write on Wikipedia. As regard to the article, I guess it depends on your perspective. The reason he is well-known is because of this controversy. Also the problem with the article in the current state that it without the heading and the picture, the controversy is hidden (cf. e.g. "Alfred Dreyfus" entry). Lastly, I think it just talks about the problem as Carey himself would, without giving due weight to the concern of academics and reporters about his financial relationship with Hashim and Hashim's yayasan. Rather than us keeping on undoing each other changes, what is the better solution? Salam, Khotib Khotib Anwar (talk) 05:15, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi Cricso1492, haven't heard back from you. Now Prabowo is getting to be Jokowi's friend so hopefully all's good now! I get it your OK with going back to my old version, so I undo back to my one. I hope thats OK, and please let me know if you want to discuss it further, Sincerely, Khotib Anwar.Khotib Anwar (talk) 09:03, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
