Hashfi thoughts that General Hafiz so far known as warlord that care for the well being of his people. Kinda weird but thats what happen on the Pasundan Military Councils.

Hashfi stopped and parked his car on the parking lot of fancy terrace restaurant called Lokananta, its his favorite restaurant and he hold majority shares in this restaurant. A young female waitress opens the door entrances for Hashfi. The waitress know well who Hashfi is.

"Good morning Mr.Hashfi. nice to see you again" Says Wahyuni that female waitress.

The rivalry among the businessperson in Jakarta is very intriguing and challenging and every businessperson have their own Militiamen, so Hashfi is not alone in this case.

While waiting his meals ready. Hashfi reads the Local Newspaper. One of the newspaper column is talk about the Firearms clashes between Pasundan Military Councils and The Heavenly Kingdoms Of Dermayu Al-Maytun.

"Huh. looks like Hafiz is needed another tons of ammunition again" Hashfi told to himself.

a few moments later. Wahyuni the waitress bring Hashfi orders in a silver tray. she put the food and drink on the table.

"Here is for you wahyuni. a small tip for you. you doing good job" says Hashfi. he hands a bill worth of $20 to Wahyuni. for Wahyuni, $20 is a large amount of money. especially when the former Rupiah currency that still circulated has been undervalued.

"thankyou mr.Hashfi. you are so kind" says Wahyuni gratefully.
