Homelessness in Indonesia refers to the issue of homelessness, a condition wherein people lack a stable and appropriate place of housing. The number of homeless people in Indonesia is estimated to be up to 3 million people in the country, over 28,000 in Jakarta alone.[1][2] A number of terms are used to describe homeless people in Indonesia, including tunawisma, which is used by the government, and gelandangan, meaning "tramp".[3][4]
Squatters and street homeless people are often targeted by police raids who cite the reason being the homeless people "disturb the attractiveness of the city".[2] Everyday, they beg in the city on the intersection of roads, and wearing costumes to hide from targeted police.
