Indonesia's Democracy Under Pressure with Ima Abdulrahim

VIEW EVENT DETAILS  

An AsiaX Event

The Asia Society Policy Institute is pleased to host democracy and human rights advocate Ima Abdulrahim for a discussion on how the “global democratic recession” is impacting Indonesia, one of Asia’s largest democracies. Are there parallels between the social and racial tensions, erosion of democratic institutions, and emergent populism and authoritarianism playing out in the West and those underway in Indonesia? How is social media contributing to this democratic decline? And what can be done about it?

This is the third session of the Asia Society Policy Institute's AsiaX speaker series and networking event for Asia policy professionals and young executives. AsiaX is focused on bringing fresh ideas from up-and-coming Asian innovators and experts to the Washington D.C. policy debate. These private events bring together young leaders from across the government, business, and policy communities to discuss emerging trends and issues that are re-shaping Asia and the U.S. role in the region. 

Speaker

Rahimah “Ima” Abdulrahim
