Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto has canceled his planned visit to China following nationwide protests over lawmakers’ salaries and a deadly police vehicle incident in Jakarta. Demonstrations have spread to multiple provinces, including Makassar, where fires at regional parliament buildings have caused deaths and injuries, Al Jazeera reported.

Presidential spokesperson Prasetyo Hadi said Prabowo will remain in Indonesia to address the unrest and oversee preparations for the upcoming United Nations General Assembly session. Authorities have also summoned social media companies, including TikTok and Meta, to improve content moderation, with TikTok temporarily suspending its live feature in the country.
