This attack should concern not only human rights activists but also scholars, journalists, and even ordinary folks with an interest in Indonesia's national security issues
⚠️⚠️An Indonesian human rights activist, Andrie Yunus, who is known for, among others, his vocal criticism of the military’s expanding influence over civilian affairs, was attacked with acid in Jakarta on Thursday (12/3), leaving him with burns covering 24% of his body, including his face and eyes
"Mr Andrie had been a vocal critic of moves to increase the influence of the military in the Indonesian government, and had just finished recording a podcast on the topic when he was attacked."

"Sejak awal, OMSP berada dalam kedaruratan. OMSP disituasikan untuk aktivitas militer yang berwujud keterlibatan terbatas dalam situasi dan periode tertentu yang mana kemampuan militer sangat dibutuhkan. Sementara itu, Yonif TP tidak berada dalam logika darurat, tetapi terinstitusionalisasi dalam jangka panjang oleh negara."

Semakin besar kendali militer atas sumber daya rantai produksi pangan, militer semakin terisolasi dari kendali supremasi sipil. #Opini #Kompas61

Ya masa sekedar ngejar kuantitas/rasio doang? Yang penting itu usefull mass, bukan mass (kuantitas) doang, apalagi ketika satuan tempur dan alutsista TNI masih ketinggalan jauh dari negara-negara yg isebut 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Pembentukan Yon TP dg perang modern konteknya apa?
Data IISS 2025, rasio tentara/1000 pddk Indonesia cuma 1,4. Kalah jauh dg negara2 yg alutsistanya lbh modern:
-Israel 20,1
-SoKor 9,6
-Singapura 8,5
-US 3,8
-Prancis 3
-Jerman 2,1
-Italia 2,7
-UK 2,1
-Australia 2,5
-Jepang 2

⚠️Two people were struck by stray bullets last week (2/6) at Padang State University, West Sumatra. Army investigation found that the bullets originated from 9mm pistol(s) fired during an exercise by the 897th Territorial Development Battalion (Yonif TP) at a shooting range located ~800 metres away
The university said this was the seventh stray bullet incident since 2010 and the army had previously promised to evaluate/relocate the range.

Pada kejadian sebelumnya, pihak UNP pernah dijanjikan bahwa lapangan tembak akan dievaluasi, tetapi tidak ada perubahan dan insiden peluru nyasar kembali terjadi. #Polhuk #AdadiKompas

🇮🇩🇷🇺 Indonesian Navy #TNIAL training ship KRI Bima Suci arrived at Vladivostok (10/6)
📸Russian Pacific Fleet
KRI Bima Suci left its home port in Surabaya, East Java, for its annual overseas training cruise (26/3). Yet the Indonesian Navy #TNIAL has shortened to 124 days and shifted the route to East Asia, likely due to the situation in the Middle East and other geopolitical/security concerns
There are also foreign cadets onboard (3rd & 4th photos) under the ASEAN Cadet Sail program

Punya kapabilitas beyond border gk serta merta menjadikan negara bersifat ofensif. Harus diliat juga doktrin, strategi, politik, sampai track record yang nentuin penggunaan kapabilitas tersebut
Cth: Apakah 🇯🇵🇰🇷🇹🇼 yg capability nya jauh di atas TNI dilihat sebagai negara ofensif?

Defensive apaan kalau udah punya rudal balistik yang bisa menjangkau negara lain. Disamping itu ada niat yang lebih jauh lagi yang kalau di logika ini udah gak masuk lagi ke defensive, ini mau offensif beneran.

Indonesia's active military personnel could exceed 1.2 million by 2029
My first @WarOnTheRocks 📝examines why this massive buildup risks producing an unaffordable military institution that is much larger on paper but weaker in actual capability and strategic relevance
