台北講座｜刪預算、寄死豬：印尼國會亂象與民主危機 Indonesia’s Authoritarian Return (English Below)

總統上任後忙著刪預算？國會強行通過惡法？記者收到裝著斷頭死豬的包裹？全球第三大的民主國家印尼正在面臨什麼危機？

2024年，印尼總統普拉伯沃 (Prabowo Subianto) 當選之初，就引發公民社會的強烈擔憂，因為他曾是印尼威權時期直接的人權加害者，更曾因此被美國禁止入境20年。自普拉伯沃上任短短半年以來，大幅刪減各部會共達美金440億的預算、強行修法擴增軍方權力，而抗議的學生與民眾則遭暴力鎮壓、公民團體被跟監施壓，連記者也收到斷頭死豬與死老鼠的包裹威嚇。在各界擔憂印尼軍國主義復甦 (Reviving Militarism) 的局勢下，當地公民社會仍展現韌性與抗爭精神——記者在威脅下報導真相、學生和民眾組織自發性的抗爭行動，許多NGO也持續支援遭到打壓的抗爭者，他們面臨哪些挑戰？又需要國際社會哪些支援？本場講座邀請了印尼NGO工作者、獨立記者與人權行動者，從不同角度分析印尼當前的政治與人權情勢，歡迎你一起來深入探討，普拉伯沃執政後對公民空間、新聞自由、民主社會的衝擊，並進一步挖掘這場轉變對區域帶來的影響！

Indonesia’s Authoritarian Return: Prabowo, Militarism, and Civic Space Under Threat

Indonesia stands at a critical crossroads as democracy comes under threat. Since the inauguration of President Prabowo Subianto, the country has seen a disturbing resurgence of militarism, growing military influence over civilian life, sweeping budget cuts to rights-based institutions, and the rushed passage of controversial laws with little public debate.These changes have sparked deep alarm across civil society. Journalists who reported on the amendment to the National Military Law, which causes the increasing power of the military in Indonesian society, received chilling threats, including parcels containing a pig’s head and decapitated rats. NGOs and human rights groups face intensifying intimidation and surveillance. Police and military forces have brutally cracked down on protesters, and military personnel have entered university campuses to shut down student discussions on militarism’s return.Yet despite this wave of repression, Indonesian civil society and the public have shown remarkable resilience. Independent journalists continue to report the truth, students and communities organize spontaneous protests and public dialogues, and NGOs work tirelessly to support those targeted by the crackdown. Their courage sends a powerful message of resistance and hope.This public forum brings together Indonesian NGO leaders, journalists, and activists to share firsthand insights and analyze the shifting political landscape. We will explore what these developments mean for civic space, media freedom, and democracy in Indonesia, and what lessons they hold for the wider region, including Taiwan.Join us for this urgent conversation on authoritarian resurgence, grassroots resistance, and the power of international solidarity in defending freedom and human rights.
