Report Human Rights Watc - UNHCR, Competitive, credible, and fair local elections in Jakarta and the province of West
Kalimantan in 2012 underscored the ongoing transition from decades of
authoritarian rule in Indonesia.
The government's willingness to accept
numerous recommendations from United Nations member states during the
UN's Universal Periodic Review (UPR) of Indonesia's human rights record
was another hopeful sign of a growing commitment to respecting human
rights.
However, Indonesia remains beset by serious human rights problems.
Violence and discrimination against religious minorities, particularly
Ahmadiyah, Bahai, Christians, and Shia deepened.
Lack of accountability
for abuses by police and military forces continues to affect the lives
of residents in Papua and West Papua provinces.
