INDONESIA: JAKARTA: STUDENTS CLASH WITH POLICE

(17 Sep 1999) Indonesian/Nat Hundreds of students clashed with police outside Indonesia's parliament, as deputies considered a bill to widen military powers. Stones and batons where thrown by both sides during the confrontation. The protest had been organised by anti-military groups from 10 Indonesian universities. The bill allows the president to declare a state of emergency in trouble spots and delegate authority to the military which will be given enhanced power to handle threats to state security, including the power to take over all mail and electronic means of communication. Elsewhere, pro-government supporters staged a show of unity outside the Defence Ministry and offered General Wiranto a chicken to increase his strength. Another anti-western demonstration outside the Australian embassy condemning the Australia-led U-N force expected in East Timor this weekend passed without incident. SOUNDBITE: (English) "We have to reject that military plan. If our country has a difficult situation then the military will take over the situation so we came here to reject that."
