Reformasi (reform)

Reformasi refers to efforts to bring about political and social change within a country, often aiming to improve governance, reduce corruption, and expand freedoms. It typically emerges from public demand for justice, transparency, and accountability in leadership. These movements can include protests, policy changes, or institutional reforms, seeking to address injustices and create a more equitable society. The term is commonly associated with Indonesia's reform movement in the late 1990s, which ended authoritarian rule and transitioned towards democracy. Overall, reformasi is about making systematic improvements to how a country is managed and how its people's rights are protected.
