According to reports, student groups from Universitas Nasional (UNAS) and Aliansi PWKS have called for a demonstration to commemorate National Farmers’ Day in Central Jakarta on Thursday (24 September). The gathering is scheduled to commence at 1000 hours (local time) outside the DPR/MPR RI Building on Jalan Jenderal Gatot Subroto.
The protest is expected to draw university students, agrarian worker organisations, and civil society advocates.
