JAKARTA (The Nation/ANN): As part of a campaign against sexual harassment, a cactus shaped like a penis and testicles has been sold in a Twitter-based charity auction for Rp2 million (US$143). The auction was held to highlight the rise in sexual abuse during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Behind the auction were Raka Ibrahim and his friend, a female survivor of sexual assault who prefers to remain anonymous. It was initially planned that the cactus would be sent to the person who allegedly assaulted Raka’s friend.
