In the article "Indonesia: Is 2004 the Final Year of the Transition Period?" Dr A.Yu.Drougov asserts that the results of the two electoral campaigns in Indonesia in 2004 i.e. relative victory of the former Suharto's stronghold Functional Groups and absolute victory of General Soesilo Bambang Yudhoyono, reflected the disillusionment of the voters in the post-Suharto's reforms. The rise of the political role of Islam as well as a kind of the military comeback may be also related to the inability of the secular political elite to rise above personal and narrow group interests. The evident efforts of the USA administration to have Indonesia as its ally in the war against Islamic terrorists are met with certain restraint in Jakarta. The USA is not very popular with Indonesian Moslems (almost 90% of the country's population) and the new President does not want to irritate this vocal majority.
