Truck drivers to rally at Governor's Office, Jambi City, Indonesia, from 08:00 Jan. 22. Increased security, transport disruptions likely.
Unionized coal truck drivers plan to demonstrate outside the governor's office in Jambi City, Jambi Province, from 08:00 Jan. 22. Protesters demand that the governor revoke a recent regulation banning the use of national roads by coal trucks. Organizers claim 6,000 people will join the event in 600 trucks.
A heightened security presence, as well as localized transport disruptions, are likely around the protest site. Isolated scuffles may occur between police and activists, posing incidental risks to bystanders.
Avoid the protest as a precaution and to minimize travel delays. Depart the area at the first sign of any security disturbance. Allow additional travel time near the protest site. Heed all official transport and security advisories.
