Thousands of Indonesian residents on Rempang Island, mostly fishermen, are protesting against a multibillion-dollar Chinese-funded megaproject which may see several villages being completely cleared. “The situation has been getting more tense in the past month. The villagers have lost interest in going out to the sea to fish … The most important thing is to save our village,” explains fisherman Sadam Husen.
