TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - A total of 13 civil organizations would stage a rally against the establishment of the 2018 IMF-World Bank annual meeting. The groups rejected policies issued by the two institutions they considered impartial for the just and proper of Indonesian people.

Until the day before the opening ceremony today, October 8, many fliers spread via online on social media of the 13 organizations. One of which is on Instagram account of Gerak Lawan @geraklawan on Sunday, October 7, saying “Gerak Lawan invites all people living in Bali to join our acts voluntarily.”

Gerak Lawan on its post opened recruitments for volunteers willing to join their acts that would be held in the middle of the annual meeting between October 10-14. The group promoted a hashtag World Beyond Banks.

The IMF-Word Bank meeting is slated to take place on October 8-14 in Nusa Dua, Bali.
