Megawati confident of winning presidential poll
2004-08-13
I'm confident my hair's growing back. If you look from just the right angle, you can see it...
Indonesia's President Megawati Sukarnoputri on Friday declared herself the favourite to win elections next month, dismissing as unreliable the opinion polls that predict she will lose heavily to a former military general. Mrs Megawati came in second in first-round elections on July 5 behind Mr Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, who was also her former security minister. Mr Yudhoyono failed to win a majority, so the two candidates must face each other in a run-off on Sept 20. 'My chance of winning is bigger,' Mrs Megawati told a group of foreign reporters. 'The reason is that the vote from my party is solid and we will also get the undecided voters.'
