APPARENTLY it is difficult to retain the Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono-Jusuf Kalla pairing. Yudhoyono’s high popularity, according to some surveys, affords the President self-confidence not to hastily mention a vice-presidential candidate. As for Kalla, there are some names that will be put forward as potential running mates. However, the Lembang 9 Institute, the Kalla-supporting group, remains convinced that only a storm will break up the Yudhoyono-Kalla duo.
