Bandar Lampung – Students from campuses around the city rallied and marched on September 28 to mark the first anniversary of the murder of two students, Yusuf Rizal and Saidatul Fitria, by the military during a political demonstration.

The 2000 students chanted slogans demanding an end to military intervention in politics and for a genuine investigation of those responsible for the killings. They marched from the former military post outside the University of Bandar Lampung, where the killings occurred, to the regional parliament building carrying the flags and banners of the 35 organisations sponsoring the commemoration, including the National Student League for Democracy, the Indonesian National Front for Workers Struggles (FNPBI), the People's Democratic Party and the People's Cultural Network.

Outside the parliament, Dita Sari, president of FNPBI, called on students, workers and peasants to remain united and demand that political leaders implement genuine social change. "We must make sure the struggle for change is not stolen from us", she said.
