The Straits Times

The Indonesian police and military started deploying at least 100,000 personnel across the capital Jakarta on Oct 18, officials said, as the country prepares for the inauguration of President-elect Prabowo Subianto this weekend.

Former general Prabowo will be sworn in as Indonesia's president on Oct 20, with Vice-President-elect Gibran Rakabuming Raka, the son of outgoing President Joko Widodo, also taking office.

The roughly 100,000 personnel in Jakarta will include snipers and anti-riot units, and will stay in place until Oct 23, said military chief Agus Subiyanto.
