Chudori co-founded The Jakarta Post in 1983 and served as the newspaper's first general manager.
[1] In 1983, Chudori co-founded the English-language newspaper, The Jakarta Post, shortly after retiring from Antara.
It was not easy as general manager in these circumstances with the task of producing a quality newspaper.
He would listen patiently to our various arguments and endure our idiosyncrasies and gradually forged a working team...I think that was his biggest achievement.
[1] Muhammad Chudori died at his home in Bogor, West Java, on March 23, 2013, at the age of 86.
