INDONESIA: STUDENT PROTESTORS CLASH WITH POLICE

(17 Aug 1999) Natural Sound Student protestors clashed with police on Indonesia's National Day on Tuesday. Celebrations had been organised by the government to commemorate its 54th anniversary of independence, after ending over three and a half centuries of Dutch colonial rule. Indonesia announced its independence towards the end of the Second World War on August 17, 1945. Although Tuesday was a day for patriotism, protests were staged around the capital city of Jakarta by groups opposing the ruling government. These students, who call themselves "Forkot" a city student collective, were protesting near the K-P-U (vote counting commission) building in Jakarta when police arrived to bar them from entering. Other protestors in the city called for Megawati Sukarnoputri, leader of the Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) and recent electoral winner, to take over from the incumbent president B.J. Habibie. So far, clashes between police and student demonstrators have been mainly restrained.
