Jakarta, Indonesia Six people were killed and more than 200 injured in Indonesia's capital amid angry protests against the results of the country's recent general election.
On Tuesday, the General Elections Commission confirmed that incumbent President Joko Widodo -- known as Jokowi -- had won 55.5% of the vote, securing a second term as leader of the world's third largest democracy.His longtime rival, Prabowo Subianto, has claimed widespread ballot-rigging, and his camp said he plans to challenge the election results by filing a lawsuit with the Constitutional Court.
they only voice their rights because of a lot of cheating, there is nothin wrong with that.access to social media (fb, wa,twitter) is limited, this is like in North Korea,a rotten regime. and this is what actually happened on the field in contrast to the news on television media.
these radicals think that democracy equals rioting on streets, burning things and stoning officials, if you cant do that then RIP democracy they say, yikes... arent you the ones who want CALIPHATE instead of democracy and now that you've lost you're weeping for democracy
justice? these people cant provide PROVES and wont go through LAWFUL WAYS to protest the election results, instead they prefer rioting on the streets like a bunch of thugs, they deserve all the shots, GEEZ!
6 people were shot dead by the authorities, and hundreds were injured
They died for democracy. It's worth dying.
Im feeling like our democracy has ended
Democracy ends
Antifa must have gone there to do their acts of peaceful protest. 🐀🐀
I can see this happening in the uk the current government have lost control..
Sounds like Democrats are upset with election results...again.
Great! Both of you have made 'DAMN' Indonesia very embarrassed 👏
People are very angry, it seems that they can hardly be controlled. It is unfortunate that they have lost their lives.
I hope something like this won't happen here in India.
Be careful , we are also going to get the result tomorrow. So dont be panic in any situation be non violent and be kind
all social media in indonesia are down right now
Isn't this the same country that is the largest group of Muslims that passed the death penalty for gay ppl?
