==== Indonesia ==== {{Main|Racism in Indonesia|Papua conflict|Discrimination against Chinese Indonesians}} A number of discriminatory laws against [[Chinese Indonesian#Post-independence and New Order Era|Chinese Indonesians]] were enacted by the government of [[Indonesia]]. In 1959, President [[Sukarno]] approved [[PP 10/1959]] that forced Chinese Indonesians to close their businesses in rural areas and relocate into urban areas. Moreover, political pressures in the 1970s and 1980s restricted the role of the Chinese Indonesian in politics, academics, and the military. As a result, they were thereafter constrained professionally to becoming entrepreneurs and professional managers in trade, manufacturing, and banking. In 1998, [[May 1998 riots of Indonesia|Indonesia riots]] over higher food prices and rumors of hoarding by merchants and shopkeepers often degenerated into anti-Chinese attacks.<ref>{{Cite web |date=25 November 2016 |title=Jakarta's violent identity crisis: behind the vilification of Chinese-Indonesians |url=http://www.theguardian.com/cities/2016/nov/25/jakarta-chinese-indonesians-governor-ahok |website=[[The Guardian]] |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |last=Schonhardt |first=Sara |date=26 November 2016 |title=In Indonesia, Fears Rise Among Ethnic Chinese Amid Blasphemy Probe |language=en-US |work=[[The Wall Street Journal]] |url=http://www.wsj.com/articles/in-indonesia-fears-rise-among-ethnic-chinese-amid-blasphemy-probe-1480161601 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.today/20220213045340/https://www.wsj.com/articles/in-indonesia-fears-rise-among-ethnic-chinese-amid-blasphemy-probe-1480161601 |archive-date=13 February 2022 |issn=0099-9660 |access-date=1 May 2022 }}</ref> Native [[Indigenous people of New Guinea|Papuans]] in the country have faced racism,<ref>{{Cite web |last=Dewi |first=Karina Utami |date=10 June 2020 |title=Comparing Black Lives Matter in the US and Papuan Lives Matter in Indonesia, what are the similarities and differences? |url=http://theconversation.com/comparing-black-lives-matter-in-the-us-and-papuan-lives-matter-in-indonesia-what-are-the-similarities-and-differences-140346 |website=[[The Conversation (website)|The Conversation]] |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |last=Paddock |first=Richard C. |date=12 December 2020 |title='Free Papua Movement' Intensifies Amid Escalating Violence |language=en-US |work=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/12/world/asia/west-papua-independence.html |access-date=30 April 2022 |issn=0362-4331}}</ref> and several reports have accused Indonesia of committing a "[[Slow genocide|slow-motion genocide]]" in [[West Papua (province)|West Papua]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=Jones |first=Rochelle |date=22 October 2015 |title=West Papuan women left isolated and beset by violence under Indonesian rule |url=http://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2015/oct/22/west-papua-women-indonesian-rule-violence |website=[[The Guardian]] |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last1=Webb-Gannon |first1=Camellia |last2=Elmslie |first2=Jim |last3=Kareni |first3=Ronny |date=27 May 2021 |title=West Papua is on the verge of another bloody crackdown |url=http://theconversation.com/west-papua-is-on-the-verge-of-another-bloody-crackdown-161272 |website=[[The Conversation (website)|The Conversation]] |language=en |publication-place=[[University of Wollongong]]}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=NAJ Taylor |date=19 October 2011 |title=West Papua: A history of exploitation |url=https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2011/10/19/west-papua-a-history-of-exploitation |publisher=[[Al Jazeera Media Network|Al Jazeera]] |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Jed Smith |date=25 April 2017 |title=The West Papuan Warriors Are A Rugby League Team Trying To Stop A Genocide |url=https://www.vice.com/en/article/the-west-papuan-warriors-are-a-rugby-league-team-trying-to-stop-a-genocide/ |website=[[Vice (magazine)|Vice]] |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=9 March 2016 |title=Slow-motion genocide for West Papua ethnic minorities and Christians |url=https://www.asianews.it/news-en/Slow-motion-genocide-for-West-Papua-ethnic-minorities-and-Christians-36902.html |website=[[Asianews.it]] |language=en}}</ref> Hostility towards the LGBT community has been recently reported,<ref>{{Cite news |last=Stapleton |first=Dan F. |date=11 August 2017 |title=Will hardline Islamic attitudes stop Lombok becoming the 'new Bali'? |work=[[Financial Times]] |url=https://www.ft.com/content/d2c24350-7910-11e7-a3e8-60495fe6ca71 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.today/20220422045550/https://www.ft.com/content/d2c24350-7910-11e7-a3e8-60495fe6ca71 |archive-date=22 April 2022 |access-date=1 May 2022 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=STEPHEN WRIGHT |date=13 February 2019 |title=Gay Muslim comic gone from Instagram after Indonesia warning |url=https://abcnews.go.com/Technology/wireStory/instagram-removes-gay-muslim-comics-indonesia-warning-61040747 |website=[[ABC News (United States)|ABC News]] |language=en}}</ref> especially in [[Aceh]].<ref>{{Cite AV media |last=[[Suroosh Alvi]] |title=This Is What Life Is Like Under Sharia Law with Suroosh Alvi |date=1 February 2018 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SPkw-1_rb0 |publisher=[[Vice on HBO]] |language=en |via=[[YouTube]] }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=[[Saeed Kamali Dehghan]] |date=24 September 2014 |title=Indonesia's Aceh province debates public floggings for homosexuality |url=http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/sep/24/indonesia-aceh-homosexuality-gay-flogging |website=[[The Guardian]] |language=en}}</ref>
