Protesters set fire to Indonesian regional parliament buildings in several provinces, including South Sulawesi, Central Java, and West Java, amid nationwide civil unrest in August 2025. The demonstrations were triggered by anger over proposed massive pay raises for lawmakers, rising inflation, and economic hardship affecting ordinary citizens. Violence escalated after a police armored vehicle killed a 21-year-old motorbike driver during protests, fueling further outrage. At least three people lost their lives and five were injured in the clashes and fires that swept through cities like Makassar and Bandung. President Prabowo Subianto faced mounting challenges as the unrest tested his government's stability during a time of economic and political tension.
