Indonesia's Freedom Index Declines Due to Discrimination and Violence
- A Small
- A Medium
- A Bigger
Indonesia's political rights and civil liberties have been declining since 2016. This is evident in Freedom House's report, *Freedom in the World*, which scored Indonesia 62 out of 100 in 2019. This figure represents a consecutive three-year decline to a level of 62, as shown in the graph.
Freedom House attributes this decline to systemic corruption, discrimination and violence against vulnerable groups, tensions in Papua, and the politically motivated use of defamation laws.
These conditions place Indonesia in the "partly free" category, as indicated by three indicators. These indicators use a scale of 1 to 7 (1 being free, 7 being not free), scoring 3 for political rights, 2 for political rights, and 4 for civil liberties.
