The situation between the two nations have deteriorated to the point that the Malaysian government has asked the Indonesian government to protect its citizens in Indonesia. In addition, PM of Malaysia, Najib Tun Razak led Anifah Aman, its foreign minister to meet his Indonesian counterpart, Hassan Wirajuda, on Thursday.
The violence seems to have begun pouring the Indonesian protesters Embassy of Malaysia in Jakarta eggs. Then, the fifty-second National Day of Malaysia, about 30-40 people carrying sharp bamboo sticks stopped people in central Jakarta to ask them to national identity cards to check if they were in Malaysia. The crowd was telling people that "sweep" clean Malaysia to Indonesia. This was then stopped by the police, but last week, a group of Indonesian publicly expressed their willingness to volunteer in war with Malaysia. It got to the point of publicly practicing their martial arts skills to show fight.
This nationalist reaction triggered by a series of non-state advertisements. One that shows the traditional dance of Bali as Pender Malaysia. The second shows an island in the Riau dispute (Arwah) Islands as part of Malaysia, discussed in more detail here. Currently, about 6,000 Malaysians studying in Indonesia alone. Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin warned them, September 10.
