Thousands of students demonstrated in front of the Parliament building to demand that the parliament and government comply with the Constitutional Court's decision on election laws. Indonesia's Constitutional Court on 20 August ruled that parties would not need a minimum 20 percent representation in their regional assemblies in order to nominate a candidate, and also decided to uphold the current minimum age limit of 30 for candidates.The Constitutional Court decision prevents the president's youngest son from running in a regional contest in Central Java.
