Abandoning Jakarta, Moving Capital to Borneo – Cynicism, Corruption, Murder
3rd December 2019 3rd December 2019
"Jakarta is a capital city that is literally sinking. Under the weight of pollution and rising sea levels, Indonesia's government has decided to simply pack up and move elsewhere.They, along with 1.5 million government workers, will soon be headed for the island of Borneo.The rest of Jakarta's 30 million residents will be abandoned to live in a hugely polluted, impoverished and sinking city."
President Jokowi, a megalomaniac from the provincial city of Solo (Central Java) is at war with anything socialist. He is fully determined to sell his country to the West. He is getting rid of almost all remaining labor protection laws, and he is inviting Western companies to "invest" in Indonesia, giving them tax holidays and many other incentives. Recently he met President Donald Trump, behaving embarrassingly, like a boy scout, begging him to visit Indonesia, and to invest.
While people all over the world are fighting and dying, trying to defeat outrageous turbo-capitalism, Jokowi is falling head over heels in love with long time discredited Thatcherite and Reaganite dogmas.
People are being robbed of everything, including their land, their environment, as well as public spaces, beaches, rainforests, cities, villages and rivers. And even economy is collapsing.

Unbeknown to the world, the closeness and strong relationship between France and Indonesia. The French weapons and arms sales that keep the forests in Indonesia and Malaysia burning and the ramifications of these business deals to the world ecological crisis and world peace.
We as global citizens of the world have to start questioning the importance of money or profit above everything else, above humanity, and above our survival on this planet earth. Are we going to let money and greed rule us to the extent that it threatens our humanity, freedom, peace and our existence on this planet earth?

Industries from textile, pharmaceutical, food industry throw their waste water in Citarum river.

The UK's involvement in the Papuan crisis
'Britain provides training and delivery of military equipment to Indonesian forces, including units deployed in Papua,' the study states.
The first is Kopassus, an elite force of the Indonesian army that has been accused over the decades of extensive human rights violations in the country. The second, perhaps more controversial Jakarta-Westminster partnership concerns Detachment 88, an elite anti-terrorism squad of the Indonesian Police Force. Formed after the 2002 Bali bombings which killed over 200 people – mostly tourists – the unit has been heavily deployed in the Papuan region, particularly around Grasberg, to counter local separatists.

Indonesia To Erect New Capital City In Borneo As Jakarta Sinks Into Java Sea
30th August 2019 30th August 2019
Jakarta has long been known as among the fastest-sinking cities on Earth — given scientists recently estimated that at the current rate 95% of North Jakarta will be underwater by 2050, displacing nearly 2 million people, as the city sinks into a bog.
Indonesia Announces Plan to Move Capital to Borneo as Jakarta Sinks into Sea
Indonesia announced plans Monday to relocate its capital city from Jakarta to the island of Borneo. Jakarta, which is home to over 30 million people, has been steadily sinking into the Java Sea, and a study found that over a quarter of the city will be under water within the next 10 years.
America, Britain and Australia – and the mainstream media in the US – were all guilty of supporting human rights violations and massacres in West Papua and the former East Timor.
"What happened in East Timor was because the US and its allies supported it for 25 years. West Papua is the same. As long as the US primarily and its allies as well — the Western powers — support atrocities, they are carried out with impunity, just like their own atrocities are.

East Timor-style referendum possible for Papua, says Jakarta Post editor
"But seeing the racial abuse against Papuan students and the heightened reactions in Papua, we Indonesians, not just the government, should blame ourselves. We have treated the Papuans the same way we did the people of East Timor." – Kornelius Purba
WEST PAPUA: THE GENOCIDE THAT IS BEING IGNORED BY THE WORLD
The hypocrisy of what so called The West who likes to boast that they are democratic, civilised and support human freedom. While no mainstream corporate media covering what is happening in West Papua. Total silence, make you complicit. Meanwhile, an American mining company continues to make hundreds of billions of dollars at the expense of innocent natives.
Trump Tower Bali: Bali farmers were forced off ancestral land during Suharto era to make way for resort Trump is building over
27th February 2019 27th February 2019
The land where Trump is laying down his controversial six-star resort in Bali has a sordid history.
It's already bad enough that Trump's Bali Tower threatens to cast a shadow over Tanah Lot, one of Bali's holists temples that the land overlooks.
But it also turns out that before the spot came into being as the Pan Pacific Nirwana—the five-star resort Trump acquired and is knocking down to build his own in place of—the land belonged to small-scale, traditional Balinese farmers who were forced out during the Suharto era.
Trump Tower Tentacles Tighten around Bali and Strangle Local Communities
Paradoxically (but in a way logically by turbo-capitalist Indonesian standards), the greatest views of the temple will be 'reserved' for the richest of the rich, for those who will be able to afford to stay and to play at the luxury hotel and golf course owned by Mr. Trump. What is happening in Tanah Lot is indicating, brutally, although on a small scale, how the world and Indonesia will be governed from Washington, in the upcoming years.
Fascist App is Now Here! Government Will Decide Whether Your Belief Is Right or Wrong
A few months ago, the Tax Office implemented a system to spy on citizens through social media, now there is an an app for heresy "Smart Pakem" where others can judge and prosecute you for your belief, and then the plan to implement Shariah Law, when Indonesia is not an Islamic country, it is a secular country which legally recognises other religions than just Islam. As if things are not already bad in Indonesia.
It seems one by one, step by step, the ruling elites are changing Indonesia, the secular country into an Islamic country like Saudi Arabia, changing Indonesia into a fascist dictatorship state. Will the Indonesians educate themselves and revolt to their ruling elites' tyranny?
The March to Ruin: Why I think President Jokowi is a Puppet and a Dire Warning
26th November 2018 27th November 2018
Since Jokowi becomes President in 2014, intolerance has increased, there is no law and justice, economic social welfare hasn't improved much, and the country is heading toward an Islamic country like that of Saudi Arabia.
Once Indonesia become an Islamic country, you can imagine the worst scenario will happen. There will be massacre of all the non Moslem (men, women, children), minorities (ethnic Chinese, LBGT, etc) and everyone who is against the government and against Indonesia to become an Islamic country. This will be worse than the Nazi concentration camp and the 1965 genocide. This is a possible risk that can't be taken lightly.
If Indonesians don't wake up fast and do something to change the direction of their country, they are definitely marching towards ruin. Its people need to revolt when the time comes or they will keep marching to Fascism and Ruin.
As Indonesia's New President Takes Office, Cabinet Includes Officials Tied to Atrocities of Old
Jokowi was surrounded by killers. And some of those killers are now contending to be in his Cabinet. One of them, General Ryamizard, as you just mentioned, is already in. There are a few others in contention now.
General Wiranto, who was perhaps the worst mass murderer aside from Prabowo, he was penciled in to be the coordinating minister for security in Jokowi's Cabinet. In that job, he could have taken de facto control of the army, police and intelligence.
Hello – They Lied to You About Iran!
But unlike in Saudi Arabia or Indonesia, religion is not 'being thrown into your face' here; it is not waved as a flag. In Iran, religion is something internal, deep, which is expressed humbly and without noise. While the mosques of Jakarta broadcast, for hours a day and using powerful loudspeakers, entire sermons, while people are now being thrown into jail for even criticizing this brutal imposition of religion on the general public, in Tehran I could hardly even detect Adhan (call for prayer).
The West would never inflict sanctions on Indonesia or antagonize it in any other way, no matter how brutal it is to its own people: Washington, London and Canberra already ruined its socialist direction after the US-orchestrated coup of 1965.
Jakarta is now an obedient, turbo capitalist, anti-Communist, West-junk-food-and-crap-entertainment-loving society. It has nothing public left. The elites have fully robbed the country on behalf of the West. Religions in Indonesia are used to uphold the pro-Western fascist regime.
