In Indonesia, at least seven people are dead and hundreds more injured amid a crackdown on anti-government protests that erupted in Jakarta a week ago, before spreading across the country. The uprising began with protests outside Indonesia’s parliament against salaries and housing allowances for lawmakers that are nearly 10 times the minimum wage in Jakarta. Protests spread nationwide after footage showed a paramilitary police unit using an armored vehicle to ram a group of protesters, killing a 21-year-old delivery driver. Protesters have since burned or ransacked buses, subways and the homes of several prominent politicians.
