POPULARITY
Nickel smelter air pollution, and the cost on the economy and public health, is the focus of substantive research in a new 100-page report from Crea and Celios. Crea analyst Katherine Hassan discusses the findings, methodology, and implications -- including the possibility of much of Eastern Indonesia eventually becoming a highly polluted and impoverished zone. At issue is whether regulatory enforcement will address options for cleaner nickel processing technology, smokestack scrubbing and deployment of renewable energy. Given the unmatched attributes of Indonesia's nickel resources and the imperative for transitioning to EV fleets worldwide, nickel‑industry externalities take on global significance. Also: Jeff and Kevin discuss how the new parliament may shake out and what a limited cabinet reshuffle signals about post-election politics.To read Celios x CREA's report on nickel downstreaming industry, go to https://energyandcleanair.org/publication/debunking-the-value-added-myth-in-nickel-downstream-industry/If you enjoy Reformasi Dispatch, you might enjoy our special episode.In this special episode, we talk to Andreas Harsono, a veteran reporter and rights advocate writing for the NGO Human Rights Watch.Get the episode on:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/reformasi/e/219468
Pollster Seth Soderborg joins for our post election wrap up as Indonesians overwhelmingly cast ballots in the first round for Prabowo Subianto who syphoned support from Joko Widodo's fellow party member, Ganjar Pranowo. Now Ganjar's party, the Indonesia Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) must decide whether to join a governing coalition or reprise its role as parliamentary opposition. That's something its chair, Megawati Sukarnoputri may relish more than her cadres who may have developed a taste for power over the past decade under Widodo. Also Wahyu Dyatmika, CEO of Info Media Digital, the digital arm of Tempo Media Group joins after the break to talk about ongoing harassment of reporters and cyber attacks during the campaign, driving up the risks and costs to media companies which seek to hold the powerful to account.If you enjoy Reformasi Dispatch, you might enjoy our special episode.In this special episode, we talk to Andreas Harsono, a veteran reporter and rights advocate writing for the NGO Human Rights Watch.Get the episode on:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/reformasi/e/219468
The Prabowo-Gibran ticket has succeeded in portraying the 14 February national election as, in effect, a referendum on Widodo-ism -- with themselves on the overwhelmingly popular side promising "continuity". But will it instead, unbeknownst to many, actually prove to be a referendum on democracy? Jeff and Kevin discuss new polling data and the impact (if any) of some livelier public discourse in the final days approaching balloting. We expect a comfortable first-round majority for Prabowo. Also: a look at the legislative elections, the election-day Quick Count methodology, and some consideration of post-election policymaking.If you enjoy Reformasi Dispatch, you might enjoy our special episode.In this special episode, we talk to Andreas Harsono, a veteran reporter and rights advocate writing for the NGO Human Rights Watch.Get the episode on:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/reformasi/e/219468

It is no secret that politicians wield disinformation as a political tool, to drive people apart and control them. For example, the Rohingya genocide in Myanmar was partly incited by Facebook posts. There were even conspiracy theorists who denied that the COVID-19 pandemic existed, which led to people disregarding masks, among other things. Online disinformation seems to influence peoples' public and private views on a range of issues, from politics, public health, the environment, and religion. Join Indonesian-Australian journalist, Tito Ambyo, The Conversation Indonesia Publisher and CEO, Prodita Sabarini, Lowy Institute Researcher, Lydia Khalil, and Human Rights Watch Indonesia Researcher. Andreas Harsono, tackle this issue comprehensively in conversation.
Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Pidana (KUHP) yang baru disahkan terus mendapat sorotan. Kali ini datang dari Lembaga pemerhati HAM internasional, Human Rights Watch (HRW). Dalam World Report 2023 yang belum lama ini dirilis, mereka menyebut KUHP baru membahayakan hak-hak dasar jutaan orang di Indonesia. Disebutkan masyarakat yang sudah terpinggirkan, termasuk perempuan dan anak perempuan, serta kalangan lesbian, gay, biseksual dan transgender (LGBT), demikian halnya komunitas agama minoritas akan sangat terpengaruh dengan beleid ini. Hak-hak dasar ini termasuk di dalamnya hak-hak Kesehatan Seksual dan Reproduksi (HKSR). Hak ini menjamin setiap individu untuk dapat mengambil keputusan terkait aktivitas seksual dan reproduksi mereka tanpa adanya diskriminasi, paksaan, dan kekerasan. Seperti apa KUHP ini akan memengaruhi HKSR masyarakat terutama mereka yang terpinggirkan? Pagi ini di Ruang Publik KBR pagi ini akan kita bahas ini bersama Andreas Harsono, Peneliti Human Rights Watch dan Ninuk Widiantoro, Founder Yayasan Kesehatan Perempuan (YKP). *Kami ingin mendengar saran dan komentar kamu terkait podcast yang baru saja kamu simak, melalui surel ke podcast@kbrprime.id
The Indonesian parliament recently approved a law that, in part, bans sex outside of marriage, making the act punishable by a year in jail. Rights groups fear this will lead to a crackdown on dissent and privacy rights, and that it will also targets the LGBTQ community given that gay marriage is illegal in Indonesia. Today on Nothing is Foreign, we dig into what this could mean for people in Indonesia, and the growing influence of conservative Muslim values in the country. Featuring: Dede Oetomo, LGBTQ right activist and founder of Gaya Nusantara. Andreas Harsono, author and Indonesia researcher for Human Rights Watch.
