Indonesia wants foreign troops withdrawn
Indonesian Vice-President Yusuf Kalla said foreign troops should leave tsunami-hit Aceh province on Sumatra island as soon as they finish their relief mission, staying no longer than three months.
The armed forces of Australia, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore and the US have all rushed task forces to Aceh in the wake of the December 26 disaster which killed at least 106,500 Indonesians out of a total of more than 159,000 deaths in Asia.
