Hi Jakarta Indy people!

Thought some of you might be interested in this project below or would be able to pass it on to those who might be.

Also have you heard much about http://www.stopg20.org/
The protest being organised for the G20 conference which Indonesia is a part of in Melbourne November 18th and 19th?
Thought it could make a great story for your site?

This poster series hopes to broaden discussion and inspire debate on the
issues surrounding global capitalism while the G20 is in town!
The 2006 G20 meeting of finance ministers, reserve bank governors and
heads of the World Bank and IMF will take place in Melbourne on November
18-19, 2006. This will be the most significant gathering in Melbourne of
people responsible for pushing corporate-led globalisation, neoliberalism
and capitalism since the World Economic Forum in 2000 (remember the other
S11). For more information regarding the actions taking place and how to
get involved, check out WWW.STOPG20.ORG or for the official take
WWW.G20.ORG. The posters will be launched to coincide with the G20 meeting
in Melbourne.

We are also encouraging artists and designers to use writing and
statistics from academics, historians, poets, activists and song writers
in their poster designs. If you would like any recommendations, or help in
any way with this, please contact us.

Unfortunately we cannot pay artists, but each artist will recieve copies
of the publication.

The posters will be printed as a newspaper. This means the A2 sized
posters will be available as a set within an unfoldable newspaper format.
This tabloid format plays on the mainstream media’s lack of coverage of
alternative economies or the environmental and social damage created by
big business, amongst other things.

To find information about the very succesful Stolenwealth Poster Series
(Breakdown Press Poster Series #1) featuring 21 diverse posters please go
to http://www.breakdownpress.org/posters.html

We look forward to hearing back from you,

Tom Civil & Lou Smith
