Rejecting a year of Prabowo-Gibran Regime

On today's episode, we listen to speeches from a protest held on 20th October last year, commemorating a year of the Prabowo-Gibran government. Melbourne Bergerak is a collective of Indonesian students, workers, activists and allies standing with the people’s struggle back home and seeing themselves as part of a transnational network of resistance. Bergerak in Bahasa means ‘to move’, or ‘in motion’. We will first listen to Alma from Scrip – the Solidarity Committee for Rakyat Indonesia & Papua and the Socialist Youth Group Indonesia, and she will be outlining the current issues being faced by Indonesians today. This will be followed by a speech by the emcee of the rally, Jeslin, further expanding on why the protest has been called and the work that needs to be done. We will then listen to international student Riza, highlighting the failures of the ruling class and the oligarchs. Finally, we hear from the Melbourne Bergerak choir, sharing a series of resistance songs as well as poetry in Bahasa Indonesia.
