Jakarta, March 24 (ANTARA) - The Indonesian government has yet to respond to a plan of a Commission of Experts the UN has assigned to investigate 1999 human rights abuses in East Timor to visit Indonesia, Foreign Minister Hassan Wirajuda said here Thursday. "We are still considering what we will say to the Commsssion's plan. And this will take some time," Hassan said, adding that the Commission intended to arrive in Indonensia on April 10.

But so far the Commission's members had not asked for visa to visit Indonesia, he said.

Defence Minister Juwono Sudarsono at a meeting with UN Secretary General Kofi Annan in New York recently had called on the world organization to cancel its plan to send its Commission of Experts to Indonesia.

Juwono said, it was not necessary for the commission to come to Indonesia because the Indonesian and Timor Leste governments last March 9 had established a Commission of Truth and Friendship that would also handle the human rights cases.

The UN commission's visit to Indonesia, Juwono said, would become a "hot potato" that could disturb the reconciliation process Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and his East Timorese counterpart Xanana Gusmao had agreed to pursue
