The demands of the Indonesian people!

[wargreybuns]

Something heartwarming at last!

People from all around SEA and a few other non-SEA countries began ordering food and drinks in bulk via Grab app, and instead of getting the food delivered to them, they gave away their order to the drivers!

This is really helpful for drivers because:

Orders are slow for these drivers since locals are refraining from spending or outside rioting. These orders help them to still earn money to feed their families + helping fellow drivers.

Some drivers are also part of the riot or doing other community services such as cleaning and fixing destroyed public facilities like the recently burned Halte Senen. Having free food or drinks will boost morale.

If you want to help (since the fight isn't over), all you need is to download the Grab app and follow the directions in the pictures above. Don't push yourself if you can't, spreading this info is already helpful!

Sorry not really for coming back all of a sudden after ?? years only to signal boost a bunch of posts about Indonesia protests and police brutality.

I know this account used to be about monster-fucking/loving.

That spirit is now gone.

I am angry. Terrified. Anxious. Frustrated.

I want to fight the government but I also want to protect my niece, nephews, sister, and elderly mother from a potential nationwide chaos as their main breadwinner.

This account has over 2000 followers last time I checked. This sudden shift might reduce it, but I don't care. I need this account's reach to spread awareness outside the country.

We don't ask for donations or material help. We just need awareness. Because we're being silenced from the inside. Tumblr happens to be the platform that's most untouched right now. That's why I'm back here.

English TL;DR for international peeps:

Pic 1: @barengwarga, an account on twt that specializes on making minute by minute reports on Indonesia's goings-on, made a tweet saying that their post was requested for takedown by Kemkomdigi (Ministry of Communications and Digital.)

Pic 2: The post in question. They reported about a person in Jatinegara, East Jakarta getting shot and beat up afterwards by the police.

Pic 3: An email from X representative about the takedown request. They were quite gracious about it, informing barengwarga about the claim while also respecting their freedom of speech and not taking down the post at once.

Influencers and content creators on IG have their accounts restricted by Meta. They aren't able to post stories or reels or just regular photo posts. The media is silencing them from using their sizable platform to criticize the shitty government or the police.

Racist and hateful buzzers are trying to turn the heat towards the Chinese-descended minority, trying to repeat the 1998's nigh-ethnic 'cleansing'. This MUST NOT happen again! They are Indonesian citizens too, whatever their lineage is.

This is why people turn to international media, because you aren't silenced. Our government has no jurisdiction over you. We're trying to prevent bad history from happening again.

📍 What’s Happening in Indonesia (2025) And Why People Are Furious

In Aug 2025, Indonesia’s parliament (DPR) quietly passed a massive salary and benefits increase for its members, sparking nationwide anger.

Here’s why:

They claimed the increase was needed to “support performance and dignity of lawmakers” and to ensure they could “focus on serving the people without financial distractions.”

— which includes their base salary, a Rp 50 million monthly housing allowance, communication allowances, oversight allowances, and additional benefits such as rice, fuel, and family support. In contrast, the average Indonesian worker earns only around 3 to 5 million IDR per month (about €170–€280). This extreme wage gap has sparked national outrage, especially as the government also introduced new tax increases that place additional burdens on low-income families, students, and small businesses.

Public anger intensified after several MPs were seen dancing and celebrating in Parliament following the approval of the raise.

Mind you, Indonesia still struggles with poverty, education gaps, and public healthcare access.

And while the people are being told to “tighten their belts,” MPs were caught on video dancing and celebrating in parliament because they’re happy that their salaries are increased! Literally DANCING.

One even made a TikTok-style dance. Another MP called protesting citizens “tolol” a slang term for “stupid.”

This isn’t just about money. It’s about public betrayal.

And then came the tragedy that broke the nation’s heart:

⚠️ A Man Killed During Protests

During the protests in Jakarta, a Gojek driver (Uber but with motorbikes) named Affan Kurniawan was tragically run over by a police armored vehicle. In the video, he was seen tripping and the police vehicle was so fast cutting the rioters mass and hit him. Despite knowing he was under the car, police STILL accelerated the vehicle, while the mass tried helping the poor man. He later died in the hospital.

Another driver was critically injured. No official apology. No accountability. Just another name added to the cost of silence.

That’s why Indonesia is rising up.

Not because people are rebellious. But because the government has stopped listening and started celebrating while people suffer.

It’s not just about a pay raise. It’s about dignity, fairness, and the right to be heard without being killed.

My fellow Indonesians. Share this. Let the truth burn through the lies. These soulless, corrupt elites who eats tax payers money sit safe while innocent people suffer and die. This isn’t a government. It’s a machine of greed and cruelty. Let the world see who they really are.
