Indonesia wants BAE deal

The Indonesian government is said to be pursuing a deal with BAE Systems of the UK to procure Hawk aircraft for their air force. Given that Indonesia is not exactly a corruption free zone you don't think that there might be a queue of generals and ministers with their hands out do you? I mean, given BAE's record and unwillingness of the Blair government to do anything about it, could you blame them?
