Indonesia: Activists to protest outside Ministry of Public Works and Housing building in Jakarta Sept. 11

Event

Youth activists plan to gather outside the Ministry of Public Works and Housing building in Jakarta Sept. 11 to protest the re-auctioning of the construction of the Olilit Market. The event start time and participation levels are unclear, though a few hundred people could join the action.

Authorities will likely monitor the demonstration and may move to disperse overly disruptive crowds. Isolated clashes between police and activists cannot be ruled out. Protesters may march along or block roadways, prompting localized transport disruptions. Associated localized business disruptions are possible.

Advice

Avoid the gathering due to possible clashes. Depart the area at the first sign of any security disturbance. Allow additional travel time near the gathering site. Heed all official transport and security advisories.
