INDONESIAN POLICE SHOOT DEMOCRACY PROTESTERS
On July 1 in Jakarta, Indonesian police viciously attacked a 2000-
strong peaceful demonstration organised by the People's Democratic
Party. Dozens of protesters were injured, two critically. Undeterred,
the activists took to the streets again the next day to protest
against the violence of the new ``democratic'' regime in their
country. Green Left Weekly's Jill Hickson and Sam King were there.
We are taking a break
