Jakarta. Jakarta Police deputy chief Brig. Gen. Suntana said Jakarta's labor unions will stage a massive protest rally on Thursday (29/09) in front of the State Palace and several other strategic spots in the capital.
"I've talked to our friends [in the labor unions]. They've promised to keep the rally peaceful. They will not block roads or harass people during the protest," the general said on Tuesday.
He said the rally on Thursday will start at 8.00 a.m. and end at 6.00 p.m. according to official regulation.
"Hopefully before 6.00 p.m. they will have met with representatives from the state institutions they're protesting against so the crowd can disperse before rush hours," Suntana said.
The labor unions had reportedly promised the Jakarta police they will disperse on time and avoid conflicts with security personnel.
