Trisakti Museum

Trisakti Museum, Human rights museum in Grogol, West Jakarta, Indonesia

Trisakti Museum occupies the lobby of the Dr Syarif Thajeb building on the Trisakti University campus in Grogol, West Jakarta. Its displays combine short articles, newspaper clippings, photographs of the demonstrations and of the four students who died, their personal belongings, and dioramas tracing the sequence from the peaceful rally and speeches to the shooting by snipers from Citraland.

The museum grew out of the 1998 student movement, when Trisakti University students joined nationwide peaceful protests demanding reform. On May 12, 1998, four Trisakti students were shot dead, an event that triggered the fall of Suharto's New Order. The museum was later placed in the lobby of the Dr Syarif Thajeb building to commemorate the tragedy.

The museum holds a poem Taufiq Ismail wrote the day after the four students died, and its displays trace the chronology from the peaceful rally and speeches to the police pushback and the shooting from Citraland. Newspaper clippings and photographs of the deceased sit alongside these accounts.

The museum is located in Jakarta's Grogol district in the western part of the city and is accessible from main roads. The visit is typically brief since the collection is concentrated in a single lobby space.

Among the relics kept here is a poem Taufiq Ismail wrote the day after the four students died, with the line calling them the first letters of the word Reformasi. The exhibits also trace the shooting back to snipers firing from Citraland, a detail newspapers of the time reported.
