It seems like the government would have a hard time keeping that under wraps.

just an eye-witness account:
When I was there, cinemas (American movies) are packed more than they are packed here, fastfood esp. McDonalds (American food) are crowded nearly 24/7, people would spend 2 days to 2 weeks worth of salary for BigMac...and feeling "cool like in the movies," folks were also following the silly red carpet ordeal, fashion, etc. etc. you got the point.
To get the whole population out on the streets, the radicals have to bring the rest of the "believers" to their level of commitment.
....and they do, non-stop. If you dig recent Jakarta Post articles, the radicals are banning less-radical teachings and destroying their mosques and houses.
I'm looking forward to the day when they face the consequences of oppressing freedom.
