Young people take part in boxing training during the opening of the Kampung Melayu Flyover Boxing Camp in Jakarta, Indonesia, on Nov. 6, 2026. Located beneath the flyover in Kampung Melayu, the open-air sports facility was established specifically to provide boxing training for teenagers and serve as a strategic social intervention to address persistent youth brawls, locally known as tawuran.

The initiative transforms a previously rundown area used as a temporary garbage dump into a structured sports hub, aiming to channel young people's energy away from street violence and toward productive activities that promote discipline, physical fitness and positive youth engagement.
