A GROUP OF MOSLEM PRAY AT A PEACE GATHERING IN CENTRAL JAKARTA, 1998-11-04 (photo)

A group of Indonesian Moslems pray at a peaceful gathering in front of the house of a former armed forces commander General Mohammad Yusuf in central Jakarta November 4 and ask him to lead the country to solve the political and economic crisis. Yusuf was a popular general when he was in power in the 1980s. Indonesians are searching for new leaders to lead the country out of the crisis which has caused widespread unrest and massive unemployment. The country's highest legislative body, the People's Consultative Assembly (MPR), will meet on November 10-13 to set dates for next year's general and presidential elections and form new laws as the country moves toward democracy after the downfall of President Suharto in May.
