"The most notorious corrupt official in Indonesia not only left his Indonesian jail cell to view a tennis tournament in Bali, he also traveled to Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, and Macau.

"Gayus Tambunan, who is a former mid-level tax officer, told officials that he was on vacation when he exited his jail cell and traveled abroad with his wife in September last year.
"After his arrest in Bali, Tambunan admitted that he paid in excess of $40,000 in order to be let out of jail on 68 occasions."
Madam notes, by the way, that Pak Tambunan's annual salary was about $1400.
She is amused, but also hopeful that a routine name check will keep him from vacationing in Tulsa next summer.
And by the way, of course 'authorities' are blaming the wife, not the 10,000 cops who could have kept his silly, arrogant ass in jail. And the government officer who issued the passport on which he traveled has been promoted.

Has anybody put him in CLASS?
So, paying a bribe is a crime, but excepting one isn't, nice.
