Indonesia Explodes: 6 Dead, Is Your Money Safe? | JQJO

Violent protests erupted across Indonesia, leaving six dead and causing significant damage. Triggered by outrage over lawmakers' hefty housing allowances, the unrest spread rapidly, leading to the burning of government buildings and widespread looting. President Prabowo Subianto responded by ordering a crackdown on protesters, canceling a trip to China, and promising to cut lawmakers' perks. The protests highlight economic hardship and dissatisfaction with the government's performance, posing a major challenge to Subianto's presidency. The death of a ride-hailing driver during a protest fueled the violence, prompting investigations and government concessions.
