Indonesia 2019 Crime & Safety Report: Jakarta Indonesia 2019 Crime & Safety Report: Jakarta This is an annual report produced in conjunction with the Regional Security Office at the U.S. Embassy in Jakarta, Indonesia. The current U.S. Department of State Travel Advisory at the date of this report’s publication assesses Indonesia at Level 2, indicating travelers should exercise increased caution due to terrorism and natural disasters. Reconsider travel to Central Sulawesi and Papua due to civil unrest. Overall Crime and Safety Situation The U.S. Embassy in Jakarta does not assume responsibility for the professional ability or integrity of the persons or firms appearing in this report. The American Citizen Services (ACS) unit cannot recommend a particular individual or establishment, and assumes no responsibility for the quality of services provided. Please review OSAC’s Indonesia page for original OSAC reporting, consular messages, and contact information, some of which may be available only to private-sector representatives with an OSAC password. Jakarta is one of the largest, most densely populated cities on earth, with a population of over ten million people inside the city limits. The greater Jakarta area is known locally as “Jabodetabek,” a name formed by combining the first letters of the districts that comprise it: Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, and Bekasi. Jabodetabek the second-largest urban area in the world (after greater Tokyo), home to more than 30 million residents. Considering the size of the official and private U.S. citizens (estimates reflect roughly 15,000 U.S. citizen residents and visitors in Jakarta at any given time), crime appears to have had a relatively modest impact on the U.S. community in 2018. This may be in part due to elevated security awareness. Many U.S. private-sector organizations have dedicated security professionals who are familiar with the latest crime trends and provide active security briefings to their employees and staff. Crime Threats There is considerable risk from crime in Jakarta, Surabaya, and Medan. Through several sources, the Regional Security Office (RSO) has gathered statistics regarding criminal activities and trends in Jakarta. Due to the reluctance of many Indonesians and expatriates to report crimes, these statistics may reflect a degree of under-reporting. The rate of crime in Indonesia may should be viewed on a per capita basis, as the relative rate is much lower than that of many other overseas destinations. For 2018, the Jakarta Metropolitan Police Chief reported the following crimes by category: 50 murders; 31 rapes; 801 aggravated assaults; 1,584 robberies; and 1,226 vehicle thefts. Each of these reflected a statistically significant decrease from 2017 reported totals. Collectively, the Jakarta Metropolitan Police reported 5.62% fewer crimes in 2018 (32,301) compared to 2017 (34,227). Additionally, 4.54% more cases were resolved in 2018 (28,316) than in 2017 (27,084). 1 Employ a guard at your residence if possible. Keep windows and doors locked. Invest in a residential alarm system. Rent houses with window grilles and substantial doors. Train household staff to be aware of security issues. Household staff should not allow anyone in without your permission. Indonesian criminals are normally reluctant to use force and usually do not harm their victims unless confronted with violence. Personal and snatch-and-grab robberies are the most common types of crime. One common form of semi-confrontational robbery involves two perpetrators on a passing motorcycle or moped attempting to grab backpacks, handbags, or jewelry from individuals walking along or waiting near the edge of the sidewalk. In some cases, these robbers work as part of large criminal syndicates. Pickpocketing regularly affects both local residents and visitors, with most incidents occurring in crowded areas like the mass transit system, markets, and/or pedestrian bridges. In 2018, a small number of Embassy-affiliated personnel were the victims of residential burglaries or had wallets stolen from larger bags in crowded areas, such as mall restaurants. Violent crime does occur and sometimes attracts significant media attention. In the first half of 2018, there was a perception among some Jakarta residents, including some expatriates, that either crime was increasing or that criminals were becoming more violent, especially motorcycle- borne criminals. A CCTV video from West Jakarta went viral after it showed a thief on a motorcycle snatching a cell phone or bag from a female motorcycle taxi passenger. Both vehicles were moving quickly and the victim died from head trauma suffered when her head hit the road and her helmet flew off. Shortly before that incident, motorcycle-borne criminals robbed an Indonesian official bicycling in Kota Tua, an area that is the former heart of Dutch colonial Batavia and is frequented by domestic and foreign tourists. Whether real or anecdotal, this perception led to police aggressively cracking down on crime, especially in the weeks before the Asian Games held in Jakarta in August. According to reports, police arrested more than 300 criminals, and shot dozens of suspects. The Asian Games proceeded without any significant crime or security-related incidents, and were widely assessed to have been successful. Credit and debit fraud crime remains a concern. The bulk of this type of crime involves dishonest employees of smaller businesses and restaurants copying details of a card or swiping it through a skimmer. This enables them to copy credit card information and make fraudulent cards with valid credit card numbers. Limit credit card use to major hotel chains, higher-end restaurants, and well-known businesses. Police continue to break up organized crime rings – including some operated by Eastern European nationals – that have installed skimmers on ATMs in tourist-friendly areas like Bali. For more information, please review OSAC’s Report, The Overseas Traveler’s Guide to ATM Skimmers & Fraud. Drink-spiking and subsequent robberies – often conducted either by females in hotel rooms or male companions en route to hotels – are also occasionally reported, though there were no such reports involving U.S. Embassy personnel in 2018. 2 Organized crime remains a problem that police have not effectively addressed, though it tends not to affect expatriates. Illegal logging/fishing, human trafficking/prostitution, the sale of illicit/counterfeit drugs, and extensive corruption continue as well. In some instances, the prosecution of individuals accused of these crimes is unsuccessful because of payoffs and/or bribes to corrupt government officials, including judges. Crime throughout Indonesia predictably increases before and during Ramadan, reportedly due in part to the pressure of providing gifts for family members and obtaining money for the Eid Al-Fitri holiday. Cybersecurity Issues As the number of internet and social media users continues to grow, so does the volume of crime committed online. Hoax news stories are an increasing problem, and the extremely high use of social media exacerbate the spread of misinformation and intentional falsehoods. Current, accurate statistics are hard to obtain, but Jakarta ranks at or among the cities in the world with the highest total number of posts generated each day on platforms like Twitter and Instagram. In 2018, Indonesia’s President elevated the rank of the Head of National Cyber and Cryptography Agency (BSSN) to Minister-level, though it remains unclear the extent to which BSSN will focus on hoax news, if at all, or only on more traditional cybersecurity issues. Other Areas of Concern No areas of Jakarta or other major metropolitan areas are officially off-limits to U.S. Embassy personnel, but there are areas in which the chances of becoming a victim of a crime are greater. Block M in South Jakarta is associated with bars and nightclubs of dubious reputation at which prostitutes, drugs, and criminal activity are present. Some expatriates visit Block M, but those who do so should remain extra vigilant. Police also reported in early 2018 that South Jakarta (e.g., Kemang), a largely affluent area with international schools and multinational corporations in which a large number of expatriates reside, had become an increasingly attractive target for criminals. The Ancol Port area and other areas, such as Glodok, in North Jakarta, are also well-known for bars, nightclubs, and a higher crime rate than other areas of the city. Several establishments in North Jakarta are off-limits for U.S. Embassy personnel due to high rates of crime, drugs, and prostitution (and thus frequent police raids). These include Colosseum, Crown, Illigals (aka 108 the New Atmosphere), Malioboro, Paragon Club, Stadium Lounge, Sun City, and V2 Karaoke. Authorities closed a well-known hotel and massage parlor called Alexis on suspicion of prostitution, and subsequently passed a decree making it easier for the provincial government to close venues suspected of hosting drug or prostitution activity. On multiple occasions in 2018, police and counter-narcotics investigators raided nightclubs and tested all staff and customers for evidence of drug use, arresting patrons and staff who tested positive. These raids often resulted in temporary venue closure.

These areas have the potential for increased crime, civil disturbance, and

  • The Concept of Extraordinary Crime in Indonesia Legal System: Is the Concept an Effective Criminal Policy?
    THE CONCEPT OF EXTRAORDINARY CRIME IN INDONESIA LEGAL SYSTEM: IS THE CONCEPT AN EFFECTIVE CRIMINAL POLICY? Vidya Prahassacitta Faculty Humanity, Major Business Law, Bina Nusantara University, Jl. Kemanggisan Ilir III No. 45. Kemanggisan, Palmerah, Jakarta Barat, 11480 [email protected] ABSTRACT The concept of extraordinary crime was a common concept in Indonesia. Adopts from the concept of the most serious crime in Rome Statute and adjusted with the Indonesian legal system. Then it developed wider and introduced into terrorism, corruption, drug abuse offenses, and child sexual abuse in legislations and Constitutional Court verdicts. The implementation of this concept generated some consequences in drafting and formulating the legislation as part of penal policy. This leads to two legal problems; first, what was the categorization of the concept of extraordinary crime? and second, what were the consequences of the concept extraordinary crime in accordance with penal policy?. Normative law research with literature study method, This was a conducted as the response of both legal problems. Using secondary data from legislation, Constitutional Court verdicts, book and journal, this research concludes that; the concept of extraordinary crime parts of criminal policy does not have any standard for the categorization. Then, as consequences of the implementation of the concept of extraordinary crime in several penal efforts are formulating in legislations. The penalty effort is not limited to criminalization and sentencing aspects but wider and shall be in line with the strategy of crime eradication and welfare protection purposes. To reach the effectiveness of the criminal policy of the concept of extraordinary crime, the penalty effort shall be in line with criminal law principles and human right basic principles.

  • Bali, 1950-1965
    T h e E c o n o m ic F o u n d a t io n s o f P o l it ic a l C o n f l ic t in B a l i , 1950-1965 Geoffrey Robinson Introduction Surveys of modem Balinese history are curiously silent on the dramatic economic changes which occurred in the period 1950 to 1965.* 1 They provide virtually no detailed de­ scription or analysis of the poverty, hunger, and spiralling inflation which gripped Bali during these years. Moreover, in contrast to the scholarly energy devoted to such issues in Java, we do not yet have any meaningful analysis of changing rural relations of production in Bali, of the dynamics of land reform, or their implications for political conflict there.2 The gap in our knowledge is, in part, the result of the continued dominance of a tradition in the study of Bali which emphasizes the significance of culturally specific bases of affiliation rather than those of class. This approach has, I think, helped to obscure the nature of politi­ cal conflict in this period, and has seriously impaired attempts to understand the internecine violence of 1965/66.3 This article is a revised version of a chapter from my PhD dissertation, 'The Politics of Violence in Modern Bali, 1882-1966," PhD dissertation, Cornell University, 1992. In order to protect relatives and friends, only the initials of alleged PKI sympathizers or members are given here. 1 Virtually the only work which treats Bali's economy during these years in any depth is I Gusti Gde Raka, Monografi Pulau Bali (Jakarta: Djawatan Pertanian Rakjat, 1955).
