Why

In 1965, millions of leftists were murdered in Indonesia under the direct orders of Suharto during the new order regime, perhaps the biggest political genocide in global history.

The 1965 Tragedy as a calculated and systematic counter-revolution. It was the catalyst of the Indonesian military, in alliance with the bourgeois elite, politics, and the USA, to sabotage the biggest leftist movement in Indonesia.

The Tragedy of 1965 itself is not just a mere historical event; it has become a blueprint for the current Prabowo-Gibran Regime.

Join us Tue 14 Oct to explore this history with expert panelists and it’s implications on politics in Indonesia today.
