Dear @UNICEF,
Indonesian children should never be used to advance any political agenda or government campaign. Indonesia's Child Protection Law emphasizes that every child has the right to be protected from exploitation, violence, discrimination, and any activity that may jeopardize their best interests. Involving elementary school children in public rallies, asking them to carry campaign-style signs or chant political slogans raises serious concerns about whether their rights are being respected.
Children can’t meaningfully consent to political participation. Schools should remain safe spaces for learning—not places where students are mobilized to endorse government policies.
We urge independent monitoring to ensure that children's rights are fully protected and that no child is used as a tool for political messaging.
🚨 DISGUSTING: Al Jazeera exposes a massive government failure in Indonesia.
A $15 BILLION free meal program for children and pregnant women has been completely marred by rampant corruption and horrifying incidents of mass food poisonings! The establishment is failing.
Indonesian youth rally nationwide over rising living costs, economic concerns, and controversial government policies.
Al Jazeera’s Jessica Washington reports.
Indonesian President Prabowo’s $15B FREE school meals program is causing budget strain.
If that's not bad enough, it's been the source of food poisoning and corruption.
PRABOWO IS LOSING FISCAL CONTROL. THAT IS CREATING A CONFIDENCE PROBLEM AND A SINKING RUPIAH.
*Russia banned from football for attacking Ukraine*
*USA, host of the World Cup, bombs Iran for over a month, kills its Supreme Leader and refuses to let the Iranian team stay even one night in the country*
FIFA President:
Indonesian authorities have shut down several screenings of a new documentary on alleged human rights abuses in Papua, including Indigenous land seizures. Rights groups and international media still face restricted access to the region.
Al Jazeera’s @JesWashington reports.
WATCH OUT INDONESIA.
The US is putting massive pressure on Indonesia right now as part of its desperate plan to contain China.
The goal?
Turn Indonesia into a US client state that helps enforce an extended blockade around the Malacca Strait >> choking off China’s main energy lifeline.
We’re already seeing the signs: a flood of new hit pieces on the Prabowo government popping up everywhere.
Polymarket (that classic US psyop betting tool) is suddenly running projections on regime change.
Western-controlled media outlets are sliding into DMs with Brian Berletic and myself, fishing for angles >> because we were among the few who called out the last color revolution attempt and exposed the Soros/NED funding networks behind the 2025 unrests.
This is coordinated.
There’s a clear plan to destabilize Indonesia and flip it fully into the Western camp.
Don’t be surprised when your feeds (including X) get flooded with more and more negative coverage of the Indonesian government >> “authoritarian,” “corrupt,” “unstable,” the usual script.
Indonesia is too important: biggest Muslim country, strategic geography, resources, and balancing act between powers. The US doesn’t like that independence.
They want control over those sea lanes for any future Taiwan or South China Sea showdown.
Stay vigilant, Indonesia.
Separate real domestic issues from foreign-funded chaos.
The hybrid war playbook is in full swing >> info ops, NGOs, media smears, and political pressure.
Don’t let them turn your country into the next pawn.
HOLY SHIT BRO 🚨
Israeli minister Ben-Gvir parades kidnapped flotilla activists like captured animals in his sick propaganda circus.
No regard for international law.
Far too much in Indonesia depends on a thin-skinned former general with a sketchy human-rights record. Prabowo Subianto needs to hear some unpalatable truths https://t.co/kWEld3J9dR
Indonesian authorities used online disinformation campaigns to brand activists and journalists as "foreign agents" and silence dissent, sometimes leading to physical threats, Amnesty International said. https://t.co/sFoBm6AbMx

Kemarin, @TheEconomist mempublikasikan dua artikel soal Indonesia
Judul artikel pertama: Presiden Indonesia sedang membahayakan ekonomi dan demokrasi
Subjudulnya: Prabowo Subianto terlalu boros dan terlalu otoriter
Perlu diketahui, Spendthrift artinya orang yang menghamburkan uang secara tidak bijak. Diksi ini lebih keras dari sekadar “boros”. Dalam konteks negara, ada kesan ceroboh dan tidak bertanggung jawab secara fiskal.
========
Judul artikel kedua: Indonesia, negara mayoritas Muslim terbesar, sedang menempuh jalur yang berisiko
Subjudulnya: Prabowo Subianto sedang menggerogoti keuangan negara—dan demokrasinya.
Di artikel ini, pemilihan diksi “Eroding” rasanya memperkuat artikel lainnya. Jeopardising (membahayakan) masih bicara soal risiko ke depan. Eroding (menggerogoti) berarti prosesnya sudah berlangsung. Rasanya pelan, diam-diam, tapi nyata. Bagaikan batu yang berlubang oleh tetesan air.
