After his stint at the arms fair the Indonesian generals were very interested in what Mark's PR company could do for their country. In fact, the Indonesians liked the set-up so much that they asked them to pitch for a six week media training course to teach the Indonesian Army the skills of PR. When the Indonesian Defence Attache, Colonel Halim, was really getting into the role of media manipulator he answered the following question: "Colonel Halim, do you accept that some cases of torture have been committed by the Indonesian Armed Forces?". He answered with "Yes, I can accept it..." That was a major admission on the part of the Indonesian military. Mark also looked at the friendly UK company Pains Wessex who promote themselves as a 'market leader in marine safety'. In fact Pains Wessex has supplied crowd control equipment to Indonesia, Zimbabwe and Zambia. It has also sought licences for the export of 19,000 stun grenades to Colombia.
