It is colorful, musical, and truly spectacular. But to really understand Indonesia's culture, it is helpful to know some history and geography. Indonesia is a group of islands in the eastern Indian Ocean. Groups of islands like this are called an archipelago. The Indonesian archipelago has many islands, both big and small. Indonesia is close to India and China. Both of those countries have a long history and strong culture. And both countries helped shape Indonesian culture. Throughout Indonesia's history, immigrants from India and China brought parts of their culture with them. The religions of Hinduism (from India) and Buddhism (from China) made their way to Indonesia early on. Different art forms also came to Indonesia from other nearby countries.

39. Indonesia: Culture Of Police Abuse And Impunity Must End | Amnesty International Abuse carried out by Indonesian police against criminal suspects and poor and marginalized communities such as repeat offenders, drug users, and sex workers, is widesp http://www.amnesty.org/en/for-media/press-releases/indonesia-culture-police-abus

Campaigns Library For Media Logo ... Home Indonesia: Culture of police abuse and impunity must end Indonesia: Culture of police abuse and impunity must end 23 June 2009 The report, Unfinished Business: Police Accountability in Indonesia, reveals a pattern of widespread torture and ill treatment of suspects during arrests, interrogation and detention. The report also provides details about numerous cases of excessive force being used against suspects, sometimes leading to fatal shootings. These abuses are rooted in a culture of impunity and the perpetrators are rarely brought to justice. Amnesty International spoke to scores of victims of abuse and others including police officials, lawyers and human rights groups in Indonesia over the last two years. The organization found that drug users, repeat offenders and women including sex workers were particularly vulnerable to abuse. Many of those interviewed said police officers attempted to extract bribes from them in return for better treatment or a reduction in sentencing. The report outlines how internal disciplinary mechanisms set up by the police are unable to deal effectively with complaints about police abuse. Victims usually do not know where to report abuses and are vulnerable to further abuse if they make a complaint directly to the police. The report also illustrates how current external police oversight bodies do not have the adequate power to bring to justice those responsible for abuse.
