I hope I’m wrong on the latter but otherwise oof
So far a delivery driver ran over by cops during protest, leading to more riots, especially where gov’t building was set on fire and 3 died. There was also one where local politician’s house was ransacked
All because of what - increased taxes and increased politician allowances 10x min wage (edit: austerity) https://www.reddit.com/r/TheDeprogram/comments/1n4lf2e/tldr_of_whats_happening_in_indonesia/
Maybe perhaps the fact that Prabowo is def an Old Guard remnant from anti com Suharto days is something
On the other hand, Chinese BRI plans were in the making there, and the protests don’t have any clear leadership so… Potential to be hijacked/coopted I guess by western powers
From what I read they are also doing austerity. The focus on “corrupt elites” is sad cuz it means they have no other policy.. The protests in Bangladesh were also about corruption yet look at what that resulted in, economy only got worse and no social democratic policies were implemented. It was more clear that it was manipulated by Brandon regime especially the second stage of protests.
Idk about color revolution, it’ll take longer to tell.
Oh, and that too. Didn’t notice that.
You hexbears.net c/news ppl are analytical as those on grad here.
I’ve been wondering what the current state of Bangladesh is right now, I haven’t heard about it in months.
Not very well, cw: child sa.
And Right wing fundamentalist mobs control the streets. See “anti-discrimination movement” it’s not really about anti-discrimination, they are aligned with right wing Jamaat.
