In recent months, Generation Z representatives in Nepal, Indonesia, and the Philippines have been holding large-scale protests against corruption. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
In Kathmandu, hundreds of young people gathered in front of the parliament building, criticizing political leaders and their children’s assets. As a result of these protests, some ministries were closed and the prime minister resigned.
In Indonesia and the Philippines, young people organized mass demonstrations against government financial privileges and social injustices. They quickly arranged protests using social networks and mobile applications.
However, some protests turned violent, resulting in seventy deaths in Nepal, ten in Indonesia, and damage to buildings and business establishments. Governments condemned the protests but were forced to partially accept some demands.
Experts emphasize that online initiatives cannot ensure long-term social changes. The youth, learning from past mistakes, are trying to act in a systematic and democratic way.
These processes have initiated a new phase in the fight for social justice and against corruption.
