Nusa Dua, Bali. US
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is urging Indonesia to promote
democracy in Burma and countries in the Middle East and North Africa
in the throes of upheaval.
She says its successful transition from
dictatorship and status as a vibrant Muslim-majority democracy make it
an ideal role model for both Burma and the Arab world.
In
meetings with senior Indonesian officials on Sunday in Bali, Clinton
said the country's recent history "provides an example for a transition
to civilian rule and building strong democratic institutions."
She said
Indonesia has made significant strides toward democracy and shown that
Islam and democracy can co-exist.
Indonesia is the world's most populous Muslim nation and emerged from decades of authoritarian rule just over 10 years ago.
