JAKARTA: “Women rise, women seek justice!” went the chant that was repeated throughout the Perempuan Meruwat Negeri (Women Heal the Nation) demonstration in Central Jakarta on Sunday (Dec 22).

Women from all walks of life taking to the streets during the 'Perempuan Meruwat Negeri' rally in Central Jakarta on Sunday . The rally was held to reclaim Dec 22 as women's awakening day instead of Mother's Day as declared by first president Soekarno.

The demands and motivations of the protesters were many and wide-ranging, as would be expected given their diverse backgrounds. Dea and the other SBP members performed a dance in front of the protesters decrying violence against women and urging the passing of the long-awaited antisexual violence bill.

AIMI chairwoman Nia Uma, who brought her three daughters with her, including 15-month-old Naqia, said that the government had yet to completely fulfill the rights of breastfeeding mothers and their children.
