L'Indonésie et ses 270 millions d'habitants ont fêté le jour de l 'indépendance de la nation le 17 août dernier. Une célébration dans des conditions particulières cette année 2024, puisque le chef de l'État, Joko Widodo, a tenu à commémorer cette fête d'indépendance à « Nusantara ».

President Widodo and Prabowo Subianto need no longer contend with restiveness from Indonesia's second-largest party: Golkar Chair Airlangga Hartarto sensationally resigned and his replacement will be the Widodo-Prabowo loyalist Bahlil Lahadahlia. Kevin and Erin discuss the implications for democratization (spoiler: not good) and, specifically, regional-head races (not good either). For Jakarta's race, the maneuvering will exclude incumbent Gov Anies Baswedan, ensuring the election of Ridwan Kamil as the only party-backed nominee on the ballot - and we examine comparable dynamics in several other provinces. But, if Widodo emerges as chair of Golkar Advisory Board that has expanded powers, how will that function in practice? Indonesia's attempt at a duumvirate inevitably entails inherent tensions. Also: the attempted comeback of the Constitutional Court's former chief justice, Anwar Usman; the abrupt resignation of a key Information Ministry official; and, in Thailand, the ouster of Prime Minister Sretta and his replacement with Paetongtarn (Ung Ing) Shinawatra. Finally: an interview on human trafficking with the Airlangga University PhD candidate in labor migration studies, Aniello Iannone. We discuss the dimensions and dynamics of illegal trafficking (TPPO) in Indonesia, domestically and internationally, including the mechanisms of agents operating at the community level - and how certain civil-society organizations are striving to safeguard victims, including children.For a free trial of Reformasi newsletter, go to reformasi.infoRead Erin's newsletter Dari Mulut Ke Mulut here: https://darimulut.beehiiv.com/

Apple-topman Tim Cook overweegt te investeren in een fabriek in Indonesië. Dat zei hij tegen journalisten na een bezoek aan de Indonesische president Widodo. Michiel Jurrjens vertelt erover in de Tech Update. Cooks bezoek aan Widodo is onderdeel van een langere tournee door Zuidoost-Azië. De CEO van Apple reisde eerder deze week al naar Vietnam. Apple heeft geen productiefaciliteit in Indonesië, maar investeert middels opleidingscentra voor app-ontwikkelaars al wel in het land. Verder in de Tech Update: Take-Two Interactive, de uitgever van onder andere de Grand Theft Auto-games, ontslaat 5 procent van zijn personeel. Enkele honderden medewerkers komen door de ontslagronde op straat te staan. De winst van het gamebedrijf valt al langere tijd tegen. Het van oorsprong Russische berichtenplatform Telegram nadert de 1 miljard gebruikers. Dat heeft oprichter Pavel Durov gezegd in een interview met voormalig Fox News-host Tucker Carlson.

Indonesia's national election vote‑count concluded relatively smoothly, with the Widodo family's PSI falling well short of inclusion in parliament while the Soeharto-era ruling party Golkar expanded its vote share at PDI‑Perjuangan's expense. Jeff and Kevin break down the implications and outlook. Also: an all-too predictable kerfuffle on new Customs restrictions for arriving travellers and some thoughts on a portentous WTO ruling on palm-derived biodiesel.Support us on buymeacoffee.com/reformasi
A recent presidential fashion statement -- a bright yellow necktie -- triggered anticipation that he may harbor designs on a takeover of Golkar, the Soeharto-era ruling party that will likely remain second-largest in the next parliament. Insider sources cited by Tempo magazine corroborated this indication of this maneuvering via sartorial elegance. But a Golkar takeover next December would be no simple task, even for the powerful Joko Widodo -- and it might conflict with the interests of Prabowo Subianto. Also: Jeff and Kevin discuss Prabowo's Free Lunch program and its costs, along with a possible parliamentary process to censure the government for wayward handling of the election process.Support us on buymeacoffee.com/reformasi
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
Les Indonésiens sont appelés à voter ce mercredi 14 février pour élire un nouveau président. Trois candidats sont en lice pour succéder à Joko Widodo, au pouvoir pendant dix ans. Un président encore très populaire, plébiscité pour son bilan économique. Aujourd'hui en Indonésie, l'immense majorité des 270 millions d'habitants bénéficie d'une couverture santé universelle. Cela fait partie des retombées directes de la fabuleuse croissance indonésienne. Avec la régularité d'un métronome, la croissance indonésienne est depuis dix ans de 5%, à l'exception de 2020, l'année la plus dramatique du Covid.En 2014, le PIB par habitant était de 3 200 dollars. Cette année, il dépasse la barre des 5 000 dollars. Le président Widodo a propulsé son pays du dizième au septième rang mondial en termes de PIB, juste derrière la Russie, que l'archipel du sud est asiatique pourrait dépasser dans les prochaines années.Les ingrédients du succèsLe président Widodo a privilégié les infrastructures et l'exploitation des richesses naturelles pour doper l'économie. Avec le lancement d'une myriade de chantiers dans l'ensemble du pays pour le doter de routes, de transports collectifs, de ports, de barrages, de toutes les infrastructures indispensables au développement.À lire aussiJoko Widodo, le président qui voulait voir l'Indonésie en grandEnsuite, Joko Widodo a su valoriser les réserves minières du pays en tenant la dragée haute aux compagnies étrangères. La transformation étant beaucoup plus rémunératrice que l'exportation à l'état brut, le président a imposé un embargo sur le minerai de nickel à tous ceux qui refusaient d'investir dans la transformation locale. Un message reçu cinq sur cinq par les Chinois, les Sud-coréens. Ils ont très vite répondu à ses exigences.L'essor express du nickelEntre 2013 et 2022, les revenus d'exportations du métal rouge ont bondi de 1 à 22 milliards de dollars. L'Indonésie a aussi bénéficié de l'envolée des cours du nickel, galvanisés par la transition énergétique. L'Indonésie, premier producteur mondial de nickel, veut aussi devenir un acteur du véhicule électrique. Ce protectionnisme décomplexé a été dénoncé par l'Organisation mondiale du commerce, sans vraiment gêner le président Widodo. Il applique la même recette à l'exploitation de la bauxite.Un modèle peu favorable à l'emploiAttention au retournement du marché. Comme celui que connait actuellement le nickel qui s'est littéralement effondré, contraignant l'Indonésie à réduire sa production. L'autre bémol, c'est la faiblesse des emplois dans cette croissance portée par les matières premières minières et agricoles comme l'huile de palme. Jusqu'à maintenant, les capitaux étrangers ont afflué, surtout pour arroser le secteur minier, peu pourvoyeur d'emplois. Et l'État n'a pas pris le relais.En privilégiant une gestion prudente des finances publiques, Joko Widodo s'est privé des moyens de doper les investissements et la consommation et donc de dépasser les 5% de croissance. Or, pour sortir l'archipel de la catégorie des pays à revenus intermédiaires et le hisser parmi les cinq premiers mondiaux - une ambition du président Widodo - il faudrait au moins 7% de croissance annuelle. Ce sera le défi que devra relever son successeur.À lire aussiÉlections en Indonésie: convaincre la jeunesse de voter pour le successeur du président Widodo
As the presidential campaign enters the home stretch, President Widodo may weigh whether to overtly endorse Prabowo, which would indelibly tie him to Prabowo's fortunes. Joint public appearances have been sustaining Prabowo's momentum, but prospects for a first-round majority are not yet fully assured. Also: Jeff and Kevin discuss the politics of rice and food aid as the Widodo administration fends off a spike in the price of the key commodity just days ahead of the balloting.Support us on buymeacoffee.com/reformasi
Should Gerindra Chair Prabowo Subianto be thankful that President Widodo has provided vital backing? Or should the president be grateful that Prabowo has provided a lifeline? How these two regard one another may shape Indonesia's political outlook for some time. For 'Perth-spective,' we turn to Murdoch University's Indo-Pacific Research Center and its senior fellow Ian Wilson, who is actually currently at Singapore's ISEAS. Prof Wilson recounts Prabowo's past campaigning and Widodo's own political forays in recent years to assess the logicality of campaign ads about 'continuity'.

A series of constitutional court decisions last week regarding age requirements for presidential and vice presidential candidates have carved out a loophole seemingly tailor made for President Joko Widodo's eldest son, Gibran Rakabuming Raka, the mayor of Solo. Anyone seeking the highest or second highest office in the land must be 40 years old, according to a 2017 law. The court last week said the minimum age does not apply to anyone who has been elected to public office. As a result Rakabuming, 36, registered as vice presidential candidate alongside Prabowo Subianto last week. Kevin and Jeff discuss the backlash among civil society. The chief justice of the court is President Widodo's brother in law his ruling coming just days before the deadline to register explicitly favours his nephew. Kevin argues there is real concern whether Indonesia's two decade long experiment with democracy may have run its course. Seth Soderborg joins Jeff in the second half of the show to argue that Rakabuming's role as VP candidate is to give Widodo sway in the Prabowo campaign as the defence minister and two time former candidate attempts to shed his image as a conservative firebrand and tap into Widodo's base of religious moderates. At this stage, the election appears to be Prabowo's to lose. Only question is will Indonesia's voters play along?Get our special episode on the 4th Presidential Debate on:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/reformasi/extrasSupport us on buymeacoffee.com/reformasi

Earlier this month Indonesia government data showed the country's GDP grew at an annualized rate of 5.2 per cent during the three months to June 30. It's a rate of growth that would be the envy of most big economies not least because it has so far avoided triggering rapid price inflation while paralleling an overall improvement in government services.The state of the economy has helped support a generally sunny outlook among Indonesia's voters and their favorable views of their outgoing president, Joko Widodo, who is enjoying stratospheric approval ratings as a result. Widodo's support is so robust that a nod from him to one of the three likely contenders vying to replace him may go a long way toward securing the top job. But it's a not an episode of Reformasi Dispatch without a healthy dose of skepticism and this case is no different. Investment ought to be playing a much bigger role in driving Indonesia's growth. And while 5.2% is nice, GDP really should be growing at something closer to 7 per cent -- unseen in post Suharto-era Indonesia -- to soak up surplus labour and boost wages.

In June 2022 Indonesian President Joko Widodo went first to the Ukraine, and later to Moscow, hand delivering a letter from President Zelensky to Vladimir Putin. His purpose, to quote, was to open a dialogue forum for peace, to build peace, because the war has to be stopped. Widodo's carefully worded statement, about ending a war but not necessarily pointing fingers, is emblematic of Asia's response to the Ukraine invasion, to the extent where a UN vote for sanctions against the Ukraine earned the muted response of most Asian counties abstaining from voting.

‘Met een zuiver geweten erken ik vandaag de dag, als staatshoofd, dat er ernstige mensenrechtenschendingen hebben plaatsgevonden op meerdere momenten.' Zo sprak Joko Widodo deze week op de Indonesische televisie. De president verwees naar meerdere misdaden onder het bewind van Soeharto, maar doelde vooral op de massamoord op een half miljoen vermeende communistische rebellen tussen 1965 en 1966. Maar hoe zat het met die massamoord, wat was de rol van de staat, en waarom juist nu deze spijtbetuiging? Historicus en Indonesië-kenner Remco Raben is te gast.
President Widodo has conceded his nation committed gross human rights violations on 12 occasions most notably during and after the take over by former President Suharto in 1965.

President Xi Jinping emphasized on Tuesday the need to make global development more inclusive, beneficial to all and more resilient, as he called on Group of 20 members to lead by example in promoting common development and jointly improving the well-being of mankind.In a speech delivered at the first session of the 17th G20 Summit in Bali, Indonesia, Xi underlined food and energy security as the most pressing challenges in global development, calling upon nations to resolutely oppose attempts to politicize food and energy issues or use them as tools or weapons."We meet at a time of momentous changes unseen in a century, changes that are consequential to the world, to our times, and to history," Xi told a roomful of global leaders from economies that represent over 80 percent of global GDP, 75 percent of international trade and 60 percent of the world's population.Xi noted challenges including the lingering COVID-19 pandemic, the tense geopolitical environment and severely inadequate global governance, saying that the food and energy crises have compounded each other."All countries should replace division with unity, confrontation with cooperation, and exclusion with inclusiveness," he said.He emphasized that drawing ideological lines or promoting group politics and bloc confrontation will only divide the world, and hinder global development and human progress."No one should engage in beggar-thy-neighbor practices, building 'a small yard with high fences', or creating closed and exclusive clubs," the president said.He called upon developed nations to provide more public goods and all major countries to do their best for the cause of global development.Xi announced that Beijing will increase its commitments to the China-UN Peace and Development Fund, and the nation will make a list of items for practical cooperation, set up an open-ended pool of projects under the Global Development Initiative, and draw up a road map for the initiative's implementation."We need to build a global partnership for economic recovery, prioritize development and put the people at the center, always keep in mind the difficulties faced by developing countries, and accommodate their concerns," he said.He expressed China's support for letting the African Union join the G20.As part of the effort to continue deepening global cooperation on fighting the pandemic, Xi highlighted the need to raise the accessibility to and affordability of vaccines, medicines and diagnostic and treatment methods in developing countries to better facilitate economic recovery.Xi underlined that the root cause of the ongoing food and energy crises does not lie in production or demand, but in disruptions to supply chains and international cooperation.He pointed out that the way out of the crises is for all countries to enhance cooperation on market supervision and regulation, build partnerships on commodities, develop an open, stable and sustainable commodities market, and work together to unclog supply chains and stabilize market prices.Unilateral sanctions must be removed and restrictions on relevant scientific and technological cooperation must be lifted to solve the issues, he added.Indonesian President Joko Widodo, the chair of the summit, emphasized the need to immediately take steps to ensure sufficient availability of fertilizer at an affordable price, warning that high food prices could worsen, leading to a food supply crisis.He also underlined the responsibility of the G20 leaders not only to their own people but also for all the world's people. "We should not divide the world into parts. We must not allow the world to fall into another Cold War," Widodo said.IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva highlighted the need to remove trade barriers for food and fertilizers to counter the suffering of hundreds of millions of people."We must not allow protectionism to take root, and the world to drift into separate blocs," she said, adding that the organization's calculations indicate that a world divided would lose at least 1.5 percent of GDP annually.Lili Yan Ing, lead adviser at the Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia, a think tank in Jakarta, said the commitments of President Xi and China, one of the world's largest economies and political powers, are crucial to ensuring global political and economic stability.China's commitments are particularly important because the nation has the resources, institutions and human capital to solve pressing issues, she said.记者:徐伟politicize英 [pəˈlɪtɪsaɪz] 美 [pəˈlɪtɪsaɪz]v. 使政治化consequential英 [ˌkɒnsɪˈkwenʃ(ə)l] 美 [ˌkɑːnsɪˈkwenʃ(ə)l]adj. 重要的affordability 英 [əˌfɔːdəˈbɪləti] 美 [əˌfɔːrdəˈbɪləti]n.可购性,负担能力

A scheme to nominate President Joko Widodo for vice president, which is suddenly occupying headlines, would face multiple hurdles – legal, ethical, political and electoral. The idea may have arisen from the camp of Gerindra Chair Prabowo Subianto, but it has at least some currency with Widodo's supporters. It therefore serves as an indicator that they may be losing heart in the prospects for nominating Widodo's ally, Central Java Gov Ganjar Pranowo. In fact, Ganjar's strong poll standing is still likely to attract sufficient party support for a nomination at some stage. ‘Widodo for VP' reflects the establishment's eagerness to find a path to a friendly successor regime. Also in this episode: prospects for police reform emanating from the 'Brigadir J' case revelations, and how a change in PPP's chair could boost outgoing Jakarta Gov Anies Baswedan.

Indonesia's largest Muslim organisation, Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), claims membership of 40 to 45 million people, and has long occupied a highly significant position in Indonesian society and politics. One of its most high-profile leaders (and Indonesia's fourth president), Abdurrahman Wahid, remains a symbol for pluralism, remembered for his role in the struggle for democratic reform under the New Order. Today, NU members hold key ministerial and administrative positions in the government of President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo. As Indonesian democracy shows signs of decline, what is NU's role? How does it continue to defend its position as a ‘moderate' Muslim organisation and advocate for pluralism? How will its new leader, Yahya Cholil Staquf, direct the organisation's focus ahead of the 2024 elections? In Talking Indonesia this week Dr Jemma Purdey discusses these questions and more with Dr Alexander R. Arifianto, a Research Fellow with the Indonesia Program at the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies (RSIS), Nanyang Technological University. In 2022, the Talking Indonesia podcast is co-hosted by Dr Jemma Purdey from Monash University, Dr Dave McRae from the University of Melbourne, Dr Jacqui Baker from Murdoch University, and Tito Ambyo from RMIT.

This week's Reformasi Dispatch podcast examines the abrupt attempt by at least three pro‑Widodo parties, including Golkar, to prolong Widodo's presidency, ostensibly because an election would be detrimental. Widodo himself has remained silent on the matter, exacerbating damage to Indonesia's international image at a time when its presidency of the G20 should be enabling the country to burnish its democratic credentials. The podcast examines the potential for proponents of postponement to alter the Constitution and legitimize an extension of Widodo's term. Also: the impacts of the invasion of Ukraine on Indonesia's economy, and what China's ambivalence might mean for Asia. Finally, an interview with Yu Liuqing of the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) on the reasons for Indonesia's improved index score.Get a free trial of Reformasi Weekly Newsletter at:https://bit.ly/reformasifreeThis episode is also available in video form on Youtube.
