Indonesia

Indonesia is a multiparty democracy. Domestic and international observers deemed the elections to be free and fair. While the government took steps to investigate and prosecute some officials who committed human rights abuses and corruption, impunity for historic and recent serious human rights abuses and corruption remained a significant concern, especially as some of those implicated in past abuses received promotions, were given public awards and honors, and occupied senior official positions.

The overall score indicates that serious violations of human rights happen in this country. Compliance with human rights standards cannot be assumed. High caution should be exercised. Relevant risks for the tourism sector are, e.g.:
  • Lack of investigation of and accountability for gender-based violence
  • Threats of violence against members of racial and ethnic minority groups
  • Threats of violence against LGBTQI+ persons and the existence of laws criminalizing consensual same-sex sexual conduct between adults
