Another consideration of granting grace it is because Rosihan a journalist intent on finding facts. He framed the fact that in one mind. He writes with a traditional narrator techniques, such as those berkabar with everything done in a relaxed, laidback, and light. But not necessarily be superficial.
Besides satisfaction has led the newspaper Guidelines, Rosihan feel high achievement is helped raise Compass. The one that gives him satisfaction was around 1966 when he asked one of the founders of Compass, PK Ojong, writes political map of the earth. That time is age-Soeharto Soekarno dualism so that people want to know the political developments.
How to write quite unique, which is to write the numbers in each fact, become a kind of reportage memo. Between the number one and two are sometimes no relationship. But the fact was revealed to be a political mosaic map of the Earth.
