Islamists Fearing 'Communist Revival' Rally on Jakarta's Streets
Islamist groups, who said they feared a "communist revival," rallied in front of the House of Representatives building in Jakarta on Friday (29/09). They also protested against a regulation in lieu of law, nicknamed Perppu Ormas, issued by the government earlier this year that has the power to disband organizations deemed to be anti-Pancasila — Indonesia's official five-tenet state ideology — or anti-Constitution. The crowd on Friday was estimated to number around 50,000 people.
