Independent Report
Strictly Confidential © The Hidden World Research Group Independent Report A Partial List Of Public Abuses Of Schapelle Corby, Involving The Media, Whilst Incarcerated In Indonesia [Note: The Non-Public Abuses Are Outside The Scope Of The Expendable Project] The Expendable Project www.expendable.tv CONTENTS 1.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 THE NATURE OF ABUSE Schapelle Corby's legal and human rights were seriously abused during the Bali trial, of 2004/2005. This is documented in the Expendable report: ‘Breaches of the Indonesian Code of Criminal Procedure, and the UN International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, in the Schapelle Corby Trial’. Unfortunately, this was merely a prelude to the regular and repeated breaches which were to follow in prison. Whilst those behind closed doors are outside the scope of the Expendable mission, those open and in public are not, as they relate to the complicity and disregard of the Australian government. The most obvious of these involve the Australian media. The conditions which Schapelle Corby has endured are terrible enough, with lurid descriptions of squalor, overcrowding, and overbearing heat, common on a number of websites, and in books such as Hotel Kerobokan. However, Schapelle Corby endures significantly more than this. She has suffered a sustained series of individual abuses at the hands of the local and prison authorities, and the Australian media. -
URGENT ACTION at LEAST TEN FACING IMMINENT EXECUTION at Least 10 Individuals Are at Imminent Risk of Execution in Indonesia
Further information on UA: 305/14 Index: ASA 21/1124/2015 Indonesia Date: 4 March 2015 URGENT ACTION AT LEAST TEN FACING IMMINENT EXECUTION At least 10 individuals are at imminent risk of execution in Indonesia. Three death row prisoners were transferred by the authorities to Nusakambangan Island today, the location of the scheduled executions. The Indonesian authorities moved three death row prisoners to Nusakambangan Island in Central Java province on the morning of 4 March, where they are scheduled to be executed. Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran (both Australian) were transferred there from Kerobokan prison in Bali, while Raheem Agbaje Salami (Nigerian) was transferred from Madiun prison in East Java province. The authorities have not yet provided the 72 hours’ notice of imminent execution to the prisoners or their representatives, as required by law. Although a final list of those facing executions has yet to be announced, others reportedly facing imminent executions include Zainal Abidin (Indonesian), Martin Anderson alias Belo (Ghanaian), Rodrigo Gularte (Brazilian) and four other individuals. All 10 were sentenced to death for drug trafficking, an offence that does not meet the threshold of the “most serious crimes” for which the death penalty may be imposed under international law. Indonesian President Joko Widodo rejected their clemency applications in December 2014 and January 2015. The lawyers for Andrew Chan, Myuran Sukumaran and Raheem Agbaje Salami are currently appealing the rejection of their clemency application by the President in the administrative courts. At least two of the 10 individuals have filed a judicial review of their case before the Supreme Court. -
Seeing Culture, Seeing Schapelle Schapelle Corby As (Inter)National Visual Event Anthony Lambert, Macquarie University, Australia
Seeing Culture, Seeing Schapelle Schapelle Corby as (Inter)National Visual Event Anthony Lambert, Macquarie University, Australia Abstract: The recent arrest and conviction of Australian Schapelle Corby on charges of drug smuggling in Indonesia ignited a range of national and international political and racialised tensions. This paper explores the Schapelle Corby phenomenon as an intersection of events and practices across the field of visual culture. It places the analysis of Schapelle Corby related visual texts and associated sites within an examination of history, national identity, national security and public memory. Thus the paper seeks to articulate and explore Australia’s place within the Asia-Pacific, and the resurgence of nationalistic and neocolonial discourses within the contexts of globalisation and the 'war on terror'.

Tafsir Dakwah Dalam Kidung Pangiling
“Volume 14, No.12, Juni 2020” TAFSIR DAKWAH DALAM KIDUNG PANGILING Oleh: Miftakhur Ridlo Institut Agama Islam Uluwiyah Mojokerto, Indonesia [email protected] Abstract: In a broad outline, the interpretation of Da'wah in Kidung Pangiling by Imam Malik includes 4 types. They are about the creed or faith, sharia or worship, morals and culture. The following is a song about faith: “2006 luweh gede tekane bendu Ilang imane syetan ketemu Rusak ikhlase ramene padu Ilmu amale syetan seng digugu”. It has meaning that in 2006 there were greater trials that came, the loss of faith and meeting with shaitan, the loss of sincerity and the fight, the use of demonic science. The next one is a song about sharia: “Syahadat limo sing di ugemi Satriyo piningit yo imam Mahdi Ngetrapno hukum lewat kitab kang suci Sing ora pisah dawuhe nabi”. The meaning of that song is the five creeds is held, Satria Piningit O Imam Mahdi, carrying out the law through the scripture, which will not be separated from the words of the Prophet. Furthermore a song about morals: “Mulo sedulur kudu seng akeh syukure Marang wong kuno tumprap bahasane Anane pepeling sing supoyo ati – ati uripe Cak biso selamet ndunyo akhirate”. It has meaning that you have to be thankful, speak delicately with parents, reminders to be careful, become able to survive the afterlife. The last is a song about culture: “Negoro Ngastino wis kompak banget Nyusun kekuatan supoyo menang lan selamet Negoro Ngamarto supoyo ajur lan memet Ngedu pendowo sampek dadi gemet”. That meaning is Ngastino have jointly arranged forces to win and survive. -

It is estimated that there are 167 to 315 million of drug users from the world total population in the age group betwwen 15 to 64 years old using drug at least once in a year in 2013 (UNODC, 2015).

Hal tersebut juga mendorong gerakan mobilisasi massa secara transparan dalam ruang publik. Hal ini menimbulkan munculnya berbagai macam gerakan sosial secara massif di Indonesia. Perubahan iklim politik pada Orde Reformasi tersebut, berpengaruh juga terhadap perkembangan kehidupan keagamaan masyarakat Islam di Indonesia. Pengaruh ini dapat dilihat dengan semakin menguatnya identitas dan gerakan kelompok keagamaan di luar mainstream kelompok keagamaan. Dalam perkembangan gerakan sosial keagamaan tersebut, terdapat tiga aspek yang menonjol, yaitu pertama, aspek yang didorong oleh orientasi politis, kedua orientasi keagamaan yang kuat, dan ketiga orientasi kebangkitan kultural rakyat Indonesia.1 Adapun dalam pendekatannya, kaum agamawan dan gerakan keagamaan, menurut AS Hikam, menggunakan dua pendekatan yaitu pendekatan “menegara” dan pendekatan “masyarakat”.2 Terdapat beberapa faktor yang secara bersamaan menggerakkan orang untuk membangun sebuah bangsa yang bersatu. Faktor-faktor tersebut tidak terbatas pada adanya kesamaan pengalaman masa lalu seperti ras, bahasa, dan -
The Once and Future King: Utopianism As Political Practice in Indonesia El Pasado Y Futuro Rey: Utopismo Como Práctica Política En Indonesia
12 The Once and Future King: Utopianism as Political Practice in Indonesia El pasado y futuro rey: utopismo como práctica política en Indonesia Thomas Anton Reuter Abstract A centuries-old practice persists on the island of Java, Indonesia, whereby utopian prophecies are used not only to critique the socio-political order of the day but also to outline an ideal form of government for the future. The prophecy text is attributed to a 12th century king, Jayabaya. This historical figure is celebrated as a ‘just king’ (ratu adil) and as an incarnation of the Hindu God Vishnu, who is said to manifest periodically in human form to restore the world to order and prosperity. The prophecy predicts the present ‘time of madness’ (jaman edan) will culminate in a major crisis, followed by a restoration of cosmic harmony within a utopian society. Not unlike the work of Thomas More, and the genre of western utopian literature in general, the political concepts outlined in this Indonesian literary tradition have been a perennial source of inspiration for political change. Keywords: imagination, Indonesia, Java, prophecy, time, utopian literature. Resumen Una práctica centenaria persiste en la isla de Java, Indonesia, en la que profecías utópicas son usadas no solo para criticar el orden sociopolítico actual, sino también para trazar una forma ideal de un futuro gobierno.

Esta figura histórica es reconocida como un rey justo (ratu adil) y como una encarnación del dios hindú Vishnu, quien se manifiesta periódicamente en forma humana para restaurar el orden mundial y la prosperidad. -
