Indonesia at a Crossroads

Welcome to Indonesia at a Crossroads

Hi, I’m Febriana Firdaus! With over 15 years of experience as a journalist, I’ve reported on politics, environmental issues, and global events for 25+ publications worldwide. From breaking news and live-blogging major events to producing in-depth stories, cross-border investigations, podcasts, and documentaries—I’ve dedicated my career to giving voice to the voiceless. This platform is where I share a newsletter that explore into Indonesian politics and beyond.

What is the newsletter about?

It covers four key topics: politics, the economy, human rights, and environmental issues. The political section takes a closer look at Prabowo Subianto’s administration and policies, while the economy section provides updates on Indonesia’s fiscal policy and the rupiah. Environmental issues, which I believe are intertwined with human rights, highlight stories from the grassroots.

Why should you subscribe?

Journalism, especially in-depth reporting, is my passion. I base my newsletter on what I read, hear, and discuss with experts—from stakeholders to grassroots voices. I also share my own insights, shaped by my experiences. You won’t need to sift through news and gossip—let me do that for you. Think of it as me writing a blog just for you and sharing my thoughts—completely free.

What else can you gain from subscribing?

Networking opportunities with not only my subscribers but also those from newsletters I syndicate across Southeast Asia. Plus, we’ll engage in thought-provoking conversations that span the region.
