If this story is true, then the Indonesian authorities have a lot of work ahead of them in combating corruption. Who's ever heard of the police openly working with smugglers to force refugees on to an overloaded boat at gunpoint?

I second that opinion.
If only this level of corruption were limited to Indonesia!

It will never be hard to believe a story about the police running inconvenient people out of town.
