The people wearing military camouflage are raising their right arms in a similar way. Is this a military salute?

Nah, the military always use that gesture to pose for pic started few years ago, usually raising right arm like that but with fist, but for this one maybe they want to look different.
Its been a while in military but become overly used for pose in pic started few years ago.


SOE such as Pindad and PAL usually also do that in their pic.

This habit has become commonplace when posing for photos no matter what the occasion, not just military activities.

something that has nothing to do actually

afaik, this hand gesture mostly used by Indonesian police, as their slogan or symbol for precision (presisi)... since the hand gesture is widely spread on sns, it's then adopted elsewhere for a group pose...

Indeed, Massey hinted that this archipelagic nation would be the next Asian scene of success for ADSB. “In terms of Asia, I’m hopeful that we will announce something in Indonesia in the future for patrol boats.”
