The Gerakan Riau Merdeka (Indonesian: Gerakan Riau Merdeka), or Riau Independence Movement, is a political movement in the Riau Province of Indonesia. It advocates for the independence of Riau from Indonesia, emphasizing local nationalism and self-determination. The movement was initiated by Tabrani Rab and officially declared on March 15, 1999.[1] Despite challenges, GRM continues to operate, with its headquarters in Pekanbaru, Riau. The ideology of the movement is rooted in Riau nationalism, reflecting a long-standing sentiment among certain groups in the region.[2]
The movement's activities have been primarily concentrated in the Riau and Riau Islands. GRM has been a vocal advocate for the rights of the local population, particularly in terms of managing and benefiting from the region's rich natural resources. The movement has also been involved in various forms of social activism and has had a significant impact on the regional political discourse.[3]
