Enjoyed this collab with @malakaprojectid as part of their 'kelas pakar' series, where I discuss how and why premanisme has been a persistent feature of Indonesian's social, economic and political life. youtube.com/watch?v=3fcAzAvv…

PBNU has long been opposed to direct elections (from pilkada to presidency) calling them 'harmful'. This internal shift arguably reflects, in context, closer alignment with Prabowo, who advocates returning to New Order style appointments via the MPR/DPRD.

Such is the role of lawyers in GRIB, to obfuscate what is clear as day. Made easier by 'he said, she said' journalism uncritically platforming blatant falsehoods. Video clearly shows armed GRIB convoy, including Hercules, attacking people unprovoked. cnnindonesia.com/nasional/20…

A fleeting expression of “rage” from Labor will make no difference 🤷♂️🤬
Israel will continue the genocide, apartheid and brutality. They will ignore Penny Wong and treat Australia with contempt.

Looking forward to a fun and engaging conversation with @pandji this August. If you are in Perth, come along! (and amke sure to go to one of his other Oz tour shows)
Manufactured crime panics have long been used to raitonalise expanded extrajudicial state power and presence in Indonesia. In this piece I examine the recent begal scare in Jakarta in context of growing economic precarity and large scale military expansion

Murdoch Univeristy has an enforceable defintion of oppression that encompasses anti-semiticism alongside other forms of bigotry and discrimination. That this is considered 'inadequate' tells you all you need to know about the motivations of Segal et al

The idea that the core purpose of university education is to serve capital/industry, & entrenched power, is ideology dressed up as common sense. Targets of this rationalisation, whether in Indonesia or Australia, are always the same: the social sciences, the humanities, the arts.
The expansion of komcad training to the civil service occurs alongside the significant increase in batalyon territorial pembangunan. Both head in the direction of further blurring of military and civilian spheres nasional.kompas.com/read/202…
Prabowo has long seen silat as a means to instil militarist values and disciplinary regimes in society and as a third arm of state power. He was expelled from IPSI in 98 for mobilising pesilat in the Jakarta riots, later claiming its leadership as a vehicle to the presidency.
Prabowo Mundur dari Ketum PB IPSI, Minta Maaf Belum Mampu Bawa Pencak Silat ke Olimpiade
Presiden RI, Prabowo Subianto mengumumkan pengunduran diri dari jabatan Ketua Umum Pengurus Besar Ikatan Pencak Silat Indonesia (Ketum PB IPSI). Hal itu diungkapkan langsung dalam Musyawarah Nasional (Munas) PB IPSI di Jakarta, Sabtu (11/4).
Mengabdi selama 34 tahun di dunia pencak silat, Prabowo menyatakan saat ini dirinya ingin berfokus mengemban tugas kebangsaan sebagai Presiden RI.
Dalam kesempatan itu, Prabowo pun meminta maaf karena selama memegang jabatan sebagai Ketum PB IPSI dirinya belum mampu mengantarkan Pencak Silat masuk sebagai olahraga yang dipertandingkan di Olimpiade.

Some comment on migration and partial integration of 1%er outlaw biker clubs & crime syndicate to Bali from mid 2000s, due to increasing crackdowns in Australia and Europe, affordability and perceptions of relative freedom. Reflected in recent spate of vendetta violence.
Bali rocked by spate of murder cases – is Indonesian island more dangerous now? scmp.com/week-asia/lifestyle…
