The latest MoneyWeek Asia is slightly more niche than usual – I took a look at Bakrie Brothers and Bumi Resources and the debt situation there.

At least one reader didn’t see any point to an article about a single Indonesian firm and made that clear in the comments.

Most funds don’t – and so companies continue to get away with poor governance standards.
