"Challenges to Indonesian Democracy: 2024 Election and Presidential Controversies"

General Prabowo Subianto, a notorious figure implicated in Indonesia's massacres, is a serious threat to assume the presidency in the upcoming election. Backed by the state apparatus and incumbent President Joko Widodo, Prabowo's campaign involves coercion, threats, and potential electoral fraud. His history includes involvement in massacres, torture, and disappearances, with ties to the U.S. and support from Indonesia's oligarchs. The situation raises concerns about the potential return to army rule and the erosion of Indonesian democracy.
