'Peringatan Darurat Indonesia' Explanation & Reflection

Deskripsi

In recent weeks, Indonesia's social media has been flooded with images of a blue Garuda—a powerful symbol of protest against the House of Representatives (DPR)'s attempt to overturn a progressive ruling by the Constitutional Court (MK). This online outcry has spilled into the streets, with thousands marching across multiple cities, joined by prominent actors, comedians, and influencers. Musicians have also shown solidarity, displaying the blue Garuda at their concerts. But what exactly is fueling this outrage? Why are people so angry? And who the hell is Mulyono?
