Tempo (Indonesian magazine)

Tempo (stylized in all caps) is an Indonesian weekly magazine that covers news and politics on Mondays.

The magazine has continued its independent position, and on 27 June 2010 published a story about police corruption, based on leaked documents showing that six senior police officers had bank accounts containing millions of dollars, in one case more than US$10 million, on monthly salaries of around US$1600.

A few days later (6 July) the magazine's editorial offices in Central Jakarta were firebombed by two black-clad men on a motorcycle.

Although they purchased 30,000 copies in Central Jakarta, no other areas were affected, and vendors doubled the price of the much-in-demand remainder.

Since November 2012, the position has been filled by Arif Zulkifli, the youngest editor in Tempo's history.
