Bekasi regent and dad nabbed in corruption sting

Hello reader,
While most of us are switching off for the holiday season, the KPK has kept itself busy with yet another high-profile sting. Under investigation are Bekasi Regent Ade Kuswara and several others, including his father, with details about the case relatively scarce at the time being.
More on that below. Plus: did a TV network censor itself to avoid negative portrayal of the government’s disaster response in Sumatra? And was a deadly house fire in Jakarta triggered by an EV charger?
Cheers,
Andra
