In my opinion, until there is actual embargoe sanctioned by US or United Nation, Indonesia shoud doing hard work to lobby military Junta in Myanmar to work as their economy stuff supplier like food, motorcycle chemical, electronic, Cars, textile, weaponry and so on including banking sector and telecommunication. It was God sent opportunity, why we must tangle with morality in the first place when our economy is in tatter and need more injection.

I agree, there is no reason for Indonesia to exclusively go alone on some sanctions.
Regular people on ground, its best left to them to watch, understand and criticize Burmese junta.
If there is intense genuine popular pressure to do something stronger, then Indonesian govt can look at it then.
A govt as default must tread carefully and be nuanced about these things unless there is large consolidation with several other govts on such matter.

There is indication Indonesia as a Nation and society going to such direction specially with regard as our special identity as the largest Muslim democracy with moderator stance in the world one with the most mature system as State among Muslim Nation in place thus Made some of Government body to put emphasize of this one to directing our foreign policy, starting from Palestina issue, then Rohingya issue, democracy in Myanmar and then our meddle in Afghanistan Taliban issue and so on. Many SJW orgz voicing this one and slow but sure starting to reshape our society inner thinking.Lol wut ?? Since when we are pretend to be the paragon of justice ?? We might be lot of thing to be called off but hypocrite ?? Na ...na ...na .. that is waay to far ...

There is long gone the time when strong hand and pragmatical approach of our foreign policy in the style of Old and New Order era.

Realpolitic is using moral ground as tools, and hard power as bargaining chips. Country Leadership should only looking for benefit and profit to the betterment of her own people.

Dozens of protesters have died so far (officially that we know about) from police/military clampdown so far....maybe up to 100 even since in just one day there was reports of more than 30 dead.
Some cops have taken refuge in India recently @Indos et al:
Nineteen Myanmar police seek refuge in India, more expected
There have been several instances recounted on social media of police joining the civil disobedience movement and protests against the junta, with some arrested, but this is the first reported case of police fleeing Myanmar.economictimes.indiatimes.com
The protestors are not going back and quitting, and are taking lot of casualties....I dont know if military can really do what it is used to doing ..... in this day and age.
Myanmar a 'war zone' as security forces open fire on peaceful protesters, killing 38
At least 38 people were killed after Myanmar's security forces opened fire on young peaceful protesters in towns and cities across the Southeast Asian nation Wednesday, in scenes described as "a war zone."www.cnn.com
Something that I see as not appropriate is that despite what is happening in Myanmar, CNN International keep talking about their domestic politics, while AJ and DW are covering Myanmar protester as their top news
CNN is one of the worst media groups out there. American media in general has really gotten bad lately. They are full of themselves and their petty agenda stuff. Bro, you got to live here for some time to know what liberal coastal elites are like....they are what drive the media groups here.
For international news, definitely europeans etc are far better in balanced and priority coverage.
That's mostly because they have to compete with fox news in who can have the most trashiest takes and have to pull double duty as a fact checkers for fox. I mean usually you don't need multiple takes to say the election weren't stolen.CNN is one of the worst media groups out there. American media in general has really gotten bad lately.
