For those who want a bit more context: a massive student and worker protest is unfolding in Indonesia’s capital in response to the Prabowo government’s decision to raise fuel prices, alongside other policies that many Indonesians are calling corrupt because they deepen the burden on working-class Indonesians already struggling with rising living costs and a weakening rupiah.
What’s fueling the anger even further is the broader feeling that economic pressure is being pushed downward onto ordinary people while major policy decisions continue to favour politicians and the ultra wealthy.
Just last year, Indonesians protested over the same kind of government corruption, which led to a crackdown on its own civilians using military force in cities like Jakarta and Bandung, resulting in multiple deaths and injuries, including those of students.
This situation, however, embarrassed the Probowo government, as people from all over the world began paying attention and massed mobilised to send food, medical/legal aid and financial donations via apps like Grab and Ojek (the region’s equivalent of Uber) the movement received particularly strong support from people across Asia, especially Southeast and East Asia, while also drawing contributions from around the world. This is why Indonesians are asking the world pay attention to their country again.
Dear SEAblings, today in Jakarta, Indonesia, there will be protests by students and various elements of society against the government. These protests will primarily highlights the government's massive spending programs, widespread corruption, economic depression—

jujur menurut gua mah 02 voters harusnya lebih brisik dari anak abah, tolong brisik, jangan minta maap sama nyesel doang, tanggung jawab sm pilihan lu ya kntol
sedih banget setiap ada aksi kayak gini. rasanya aneh aja, kenapa memperjuangkan kepentingan rakyat selalu harus lewat teriak, turun ke jalan, bahkan ngorbanin banyak hal. padahal kalau rakyat hidup layak dan negara berkembang karena kinerja pemerintah yang baik, mereka juga ikut untung. why is choosing the people always treated like the hardest option? nangis.
Mahasiswa yang turun cuma 1500 tapi aparat yang diturunin 6000. Ini mahasiswa cuma modal bendera. Aparat modal gas air mata, riot shield, senjata lengkap. Udah kayak mau perang. Pengecut. ACAB!
“Jangan demo, bikin macet”
“Yang demo fomo doang”
Tone deaf final boss.
Lu nggak tau apa hak-hak dasar yang lu nikmati sekarang itu juga hasil demo-demo di masa lalu? Dongo.
