Indonesia's civil servants have been ordered to ditch the lavish parties and perks.
Under rules approved by President Megawati Sukarnoputri last week - and touted as a way to help the cash-strapped Government - the country's millions of bureaucrats must adopt a modest lifestyle more in tune with that of the people they serve.
No more vast food spreads at five-star buffets, no more letting the mistress use the office car, no more gadding about the world - and even no more typing in non-standard fonts.
The rules paint an interesting picture of the average civil servant at work; they also display a startling attention to detail.
One of several points in danger of being overlooked among the rest is that officials and their immediate family are forbidden from receiving gifts which they suspect may have been given due to their rank or position.
The government uniform of shirt sleeves is to be worn except on special occasions, when a suit may be allowed.
