Happy to hear, finally Indonesia Government trough the attorney general announced that Amrozy, Imam Samudra and Muklas will be execute their dead penalty on first of November 2008.

This announcement has been waiting by all the peoples especially Balinese, after delay since five year ago. I have dissapointed when every time i saw their killer smile on TV and never have guilt to kill 205 peoples on 2002.

Good Bye Amrozy Cs, i wish you really got heaven like you always said on TV!
