'Hill and Sen have done a commendable job in highlighting the political role of the internet. Their book is not only interesting, but is also recommended reading for those interested in acquiring a deeper understanding of the inner dynamics of Indonesia's democratic transition.' - "Contemporary Southeast Asia - A Journal of International and Strategic Affairs" 'The authors deserve warm congratulations for what they have achieved, providing the most comprehensive account to date on the early development of the internet and its contribution to what some observers describe as the world's third largest democracy. The book is a pioneer in its chosen territory.' - Ariel Heryanto, "Democratization", 14:3, June 2007
