Indonesia: Indonesia has been recognized as one of the world's safer nations in Gallup's 2025 Global Safety Report, ranking 19th in the Law and Order Index and 25th globally for the share of citizens who feel safe walking alone at night. National Police (Polri) Chief Gen. Listyo Sigit Prabowo highlighted the achievement during a year-end briefing at Polri Headquarters on Tuesday, noting it reflects public trust in the police.
According to Philippines News Agency, the report, based on responses from around 145,000 adults across 144 countries and territories in 2024, gave Indonesia a score of 89 on the Law and Order Index. The score placed Indonesia above Japan and the United States, which recorded scores of 86 and 84, respectively. Listyo said 83 percent of respondents in Indonesia reported feeling safe walking alone at night, ranking the country 25th globally, while Singapore topped the list with 98 percent.
'This data shows that Indonesia enjoys a solid level of safety and security, directly experienced by communities,' Listyo said. He also cited domestic surveys, including a November 2025 report by Kompas Research and Development, which ranked Polri among the three institutions with the highest public trust. Polri topped the list as the most trusted law enforcement body, with an approval rating of 78.2 percent.
'These achievements provide a morale boost for our institution and personnel to continue serving the public in a more professional and accountable manner,' Listyo said. Despite the progress, the police chief urged officers to avoid complacency, calling for ongoing evaluation and improvement to sustain institutional reform. 'The high level of public trust in Polri is valuable capital for us to continue protecting and serving the people,' he added.
