Security: Elections and demonstrations
Presidential elections are scheduled to take place on July 9, 2014. Demonstrations, which have the potential of becoming violent without warning, may occur in the period surrounding the elections.
Large and occasionally violent protests have taken place in many parts of the country over a wide range of issues. Sporadic ethnic and religious tensions in areas of Indonesia have resulted in violence and civil unrest.
Avoid all demonstrations and gatherings, monitor local news and follow the advice of local authorities.
