2025 Jakarta Fairmont Hotel occupation

2025 in IndonesiaProtests in Indonesia

On 15 March 2025, the Civil Society Coalition for Security Sector Reform held a protest at the Fairmont Hotel in Central Jakarta, targeting a closed-door meeting of the Working Committee on the Revision of the TNI Law attended by members of the Indonesian House of Representatives and government representatives. The meeting was part of ongoing efforts to revise Law Number 34 of 2004 on the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI), with proposed amendments sparking controversy—such as the placement of active-duty soldiers in civilian posts and an increase in the retirement age. The protest involved three activists who entered the meeting room, unfurled critical posters, and voiced objections, demanding that the meeting be halted due to its closed-door nature. They were removed by security personnel and reported to the police, who are now conducting an investigation. The House of Representatives defended the meeting's location, calling it a common practice, without addressing the substance of the criticism.
