The People\'s Alliance Movement holds a demonstration on Monday (23/9/2019) at the Gejayan T-junction in Sleman, Yogyakarta. The demonstrators demanded that the government reevaluate the problematic articles in the draft Criminal Code Bill (RKUHP), as well as called on the government and the House of Representatives (DPR) to reconsider the recently approved revised Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Law.

JAKARTA, KOMPAS — Simultaneous student demonstrations were held on Monday (23/9/2019) in a number of regions, including Jakarta, Yogyakarta, Bandung, Malang, Purwokerto, Makassar and Medan. The movements conveyed several demands, such as postponing the approval and passing of a number of draft laws, including the draft Criminal Code Bill (RKUHP), the Correctional Facilities Bill, the Land Bill, and the Mineral Resources and Coal (Minerba) Bill.

The student demonstrators also professed their rejection of the revised Law No. 30/2002 on the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), which the House of Representatives (DPR) approved during a plenary meeting last week for passing into law.
