10:41 am
inappropriate physical intimacy such as extramarital sex same sex relationships all of which are considered violations of jews sharia laws the men seem suspicious of our questions especially when we ask about their duties. when they're aware of critical coverage in the western media. but they do ultimately allow us to join them on patrol. they complain to us that the hotel run by bulk has to dottie has been under observation for some time. but today they checking locations named to be frequented by love is found this time meeting place and.
10:42 am
that i'm going to let on that. it is forbidden for a couple who are not married to be together and that is the rule in islam. they sometimes seek an opportunity to violate shari'a law because. if they have sex they get flooded. but it's only kissing that they don't. then we only issue a warning we bring them to the office and we call the parents explain what happened and ask the parents to take care of their children so that they don't repeat missing in the sticks. he and his colleagues go out on patrol 3 times a day most of their tip offs come from the population from. friends and strangers who feel.

10:45 am
parts of the country the influence of islam is also on the rise in the capital. these women are lawyers doctors and entrepreneurs by profession they call themselves the niqab squad. sometimes i feel like i'm in fields of a woman you know many people cannot see what i can see all. their lives i feel like that and it's make me safe you know it's makes them more for most safe as a woman everywhere i go i like not. i no longer feel like the center of attention the more a woman learns in his emotional learn to avoid being judged by her parents if every one of those she's at risk of being a temptation wanting them to begin to put it on someone and smike end up with government get up and get if you're the new. india daddy minute i want to be founded the make up squad in 2016. she
10:46 am
formerly worked in the glamour of the fashion industry. her 1st marriage was to a comedian her 2nd through an actor. but after both marriages failed she says she embraced god and. when we are all wearing makeup. while you how much. it's so when we do it is we get more we work i have so many sam's so i need marty what and i wear this so. i hope a lot of the gifts more rewards far from for me. and her interpretation of the sooner the islamic code of behavior includes the face veil even though it's not traditional in indonesia the nick of squads wanted to be more widely accepted in society.
10:47 am
the women focus on the poorest. they see themselves as benefactors on behalf of. twice a week. they bring food parcels to garbage collectors who live under a bridge. and the 1st night they're free. but we do it right it's up nicely at the mission of the just this one is that the how many people to be better mostly we might have to really. watch somebody in the room but. it would need not just the next process to get better. the contrast with our next appointment couldn't be more striking here we meet a woman whose life has been constantly shaped by political developments. genuine he
10:48 am
was the daughter of the 1st president after the suharto dictatorship her grandfather was the country's 1st minister of religious affairs and her great grandfather the founder of the world's largest islamic association it's very important for me to connect with people so that i can convey my a message that it is possible for us muslims in the media to adhere to us and we just believe but at the same time. being progressive in our in our conduct in life . anyway it is usually busy rushing from one appointment to the next she's held a number of political posts and has been repeatedly talented as a future president of indonesia. right now however her 3 young daughters take precedence. i mean the.
10:49 am
next appointment is. at the national women's poor uni where he had issues as the future is female. at least. on stage she addresses the central issue in her life indonesia's diversity and how it can benefit the country you know. thank you. we understand that there's a diversity of that forms the backbone of this country and that diversity has to be respected and eve you then if we adopt an islamic state as our.
10:50 am
national identity then there will be a discrimination against non muslim then there versity within the mean nothing so we respect that we respect their history our great grandfather our founding fathers they already chose wisely that the platform for this country has to be a secular platform that will allow similar treatment to all citizens regardless of their religious where grounds of the ethnic backgrounds. so this is something that we are going to fight until the last thing. you will heed is generally your doored by mainstream media but you also faces hostile voices from political rivals and islam arrests. i feel like my my religion is being walked off of its secret teachings by people who. articulate
10:51 am
their way of looking at the religion on the negative way and the god that i believe is a god that is loving a god that will forgive you no matter what your sin is. a god that wants the best for humanity. you know a god that is all encompassing and all kind. anyway needs criticism of indonesian society is not solely directed at religious extremists it's. the ruling class at the political and economic level she tells us is also to blame for growing intolerance. which she would do if you could change one thing. paf the
10:52 am
problem will be gone like that corruption. corruption they see the source of all evil in this country corruption makes. people in religious mantle powerful. corruption makes secular people that don't mean really dismantles because they are corrupt because they want to control resources. so corruption makes people forget about the plight of the poor people. i think. behind this friendly and tolerant facade of indonesia it seems tension is growing including in the cosmopolitan capital.
10:53 am
in the food of 2019 parliament attempted to disempower the anticorruption authority and also passed strict tomorrow legislation the move trickett the biggest student protests since the end of the dictatorship in the 1998. i into carter the resulting clashes left several days and hundreds injured i i. i i. our next stop is dr carter this university city is the country's center of culture around the heart of the protest movement. the indonesian population is relatively young around 40 percent are under 25 years old
10:54 am

10:55 am
certain regulation go. they don't really care about what happens in the grass or society what kind of what kind of disaster that will happen because of their political interests they don't really care about that. the students are determined to remain vigilant. they accuse their politicians of taking a populist stance and of making common cause with islamists and big business in order to stay in power. i don't. see. this need to leave the issue as they will return to the streets they're proud of their public protest against corruption and nepotism against concessions to islam is eager to restrict freedoms against intolerance and the growing gap between the rich and poor. to. the top.
10:56 am
i saw last summer when you know when you saw people sleeping on the streets. and poor people's work for very low wages which leads to the per living conditions and . we need a government to act more to change the lives. of. the hottest we need to unite to dismantle. political rot in the parliament uncles and at the presidential palace and that is if they want to destroy our nation and we have to unite against them stop them all and never stop well the. the the the the good the the. the.
