Jogjakartan royalties still have an entire province/kingdom loyal to it so much everyone obey the Sultan's orders no matter what (and he's automatically the governor of that province)
Solo royalties are a fucking joke, full of infighting and literal fights between them. The only reason they don't go all out war because they can't do that with our current law
There are also small royalties scattered all over Indonesia, but they don't have enough power to be prominent in politic so all they have is their old houses.
Then there's business royalties. They're more dangerous because we only vaguely know which one are dangerous. The Sosro family owned all branches of McDonald's in Indonesia and dominated the bottled tea competition. Harry Tanoe is more worrisome because he owned a TV broadcast company and also a political party and clashed with some politicians. The Bakries are keeping low profile after the Lapindo incident but not out. The Riadys are also keeping low profile after the fall of Lippo bank and current problem with their new land development. Young upstarts are also creeping in like Erick Thohir and Sandiaga Uno.
My biggest worry is that most of those people are also got involved in politic as well.
