	Indonesians to make choice between the old and new Asia
		The BBC followed the announcement that the 3 major Indonesian opposition parties, Megawati's Indonesian Democratic Party (PDI (Struggle)), Gus Dur's Nation Awakening Party (PKB), and Amien Rais' National Mandate Party, were to form an alliance in the lead up to the election, by stating that the Reform movement would definitely win the election.
		The National Mandate Party suffers at the same time from this intellectual and middle class image, especially compared with Megawati's grassroots support.
		Which brings us to the fact that the alliance has no leader, and the parties state that the leader will be appointed/elected/nominated only after the election.
