SCP-099-ID as found by the IAA, circa 1968-1970.
Special Containment Procedures:
SCP-099-ID is stored in a special containment unit designated as Unit 4509-Masmira, an earthquake-proof, air-vacuumed containment unit on Site-██. SCP-099-ID is tied and weighted on the floor and walls of Unit 4509-Masmira to immobilise SCP-099-ID.
The personnel tasked with the containment of SCP-099-ID, henceforth designated as 99ID Personnel, are first selected by the director of Site-██ID with attention to: personal integrity, opinions on rights of expression, and loyalty to the Foundation. 99ID Personnel are divided according to their tasks: Static Task Force-2106ID "Kalimas" (STF-2106ID) for physical security and 99ID Technical Personnel for maintenance of Unit 4509-Masmira and SCP-099-ID. 99ID Personnel are rotated every two years, with appropriate anomalous and non-anomalous amnesticisation. These personnel rotations are mandatory unless otherwise specified.
Security of SCP-099-ID and Unit 4509-Masmira are to be the top priorities of Site-██ID. Routine checks are done in order to evaluate the conditions of SCP-099-ID and Unit 4509-Masmira. Damage found on SCP-099-ID and/or Unit 4509-Masmira is to be reported to the director of Site-██ID in order for action to be taken by 99ID Technical Personnel after an appropriate treatment has been decided. Experimentation on SCP-099-ID, unless permitted and authorised by the Executive Council, is prohibited for any purpose.
Considering the anomalous properties of SCP-099-ID and the circumstances upon which it was acquired by the Foundation, a simple anomaly will be designated SCP-099-ID-1 for the purposes of deception and secrecy. The regulation of information about SCP-099-ID is the highest priority of Site-██ID's communication network. Information pertaining to SCP-099-ID is strictly prohibited from circulation without the permission and authorisation from the Executive Council.
Description:
SCP-099-ID is a simple swing set dated to the year 1930, and was manufactured by the Dutch East Indies colonial government. The seat of SCP-099-ID is constructed out of aluminium and hooked by a pair of chains to its frame, the latter made out of iron tubes. Upon possession by the Foundation, SCP-099-ID had experienced mild rusting, and was afterwards repaired and restored as appropriate without dismantling or replacing its components.
The Foundation acquired SCP-099-ID in a raid on the [DATA REDACTED] Office of the Institute for Anomalous Affairs (IAA) in Jakarta on December of 1996. This raid was executed in such a way to mask it as the actions of Chaos Insurgency. Further information on SCP-099-ID is available on the SCP-099-ID — OVERVIEW file.
The anomalous properties of SCP-099-ID are activated when SCP-099-ID is used as any other normal swing sets. When SCP-099-ID is swung, "discontent" of the populace of Indonesia decreases. Files acquired by the Foundation indicate that its effects on said public "discontent" is scales with the speed of SCP-099-ID's swinging motions. The radius-of-effect of SCP-099-ID is estimated to be conceptually linked to the boundaries of the Dutch East Indies during the 1910s. However, any clarity on the strength of SCP-099-ID's anomalous properties on the Indonesian public "discontent" or any reliable way to measure such effects are still unclear.
Due to the anomalous properties of SCP-099-ID which is estimated to be Ekhi on the current Disruption Scale, and cautiousness towards damages to SCP-099-ID in light of its age and history of usage, experimentation of or on SCP-099-ID is prohibited for any purpose (see Special Containment Procedures).

Introduction
In order to safeguard the information on SCP-099-ID, this overview has been compiled for the needs of non-99ID Personnel that have been given access to information pertaining to SCP-099-ID. Attachments included in this overview are selected copies of files on the past usage of SCP-099-ID, which is hoped to be able to sufficiently explain the reasoning of the Executive Council's decision to not use SCP-099-ID.
Head of SHINE,
Drs. Herieri Omkos
SCP-099-ID, also known as "Ajoen-ajoen", is an anomaly constructed by the Speciale Onderzoeken Sectie (S.O.Z.S.a). SCP-099-ID is estimated to have been manufactured in 1929-1930, around the city of Semarang. When complete, it was kept there and was used constantly thereafter. So far, little is known about the reasoning behind the construction of SCP-099-ID by the Dutch East Indies colonial government. However, based on dating and textual analysis of the files acquired by the Foundation, the current hypothesis is that the construction of SCP-099-ID is related to the Indonesia Communist Party's revolt of 1926-1927.
When the Pacific Front of the Second World War erupted in December 1941, the Dutch East Indies colonial government and its military (KNIL; Koninklijke Nederlands Indisch Leger) toed the line of the Allied strategy for the defence of the Malay Barrier. This approach proved to be disastrous for the the Dutch East Indies when Singapore fell sooner than expected. As such, when the Imperial Japanese forces started storming the larger islands of Nusantara, the KNIL was quickly overwhelmed. With resources prioritised for the KNIL, the S.O.Z.S. was unable to evacuate most of the anomalies in its possession, including SCP-099-ID.
The S.O.Z.S.' plan to evacuate SCP-099-ID is unclear. The last information on the S.O.Z.S. unit sent to secure SCP-099-ID was their departure to Semarang on February 28th, 1942, after the Allied defeat at the Battle of the Java Sea was known to the S.O.Z.S.; this unit's fate is afterwards unknown. Although, assuming the unit was able to take SCP-099-ID out of Semarang in due time, the last evacuation ships departed the port of Cilacap on the 3rd of March 1942, thus the evacuation SCP-099-ID was in all likelihood impossible. Fortunately, the S.O.Z.S. was able to secure a majority of its, including SCP-099-ID's, files; most were burned, while some were smuggled to Australia. The smuggling of SCP-099-ID files alongside other S.O.Z.S. documentation was executed by a few S.O.Z.S. officers boarding the ship Sloterdijk, evacuating Cilacap on the 3rd of March 1942. In spite of all this, it's suspected that not all SCP-099-ID files were destroyed before Java fell to the Japanese, as will be evident below.
During the Japanese occupation of Indonesia, especially Java, the status of SCP-099-ID is unknown. With little to no surviving files from the Japanese occupation of Indonesia, it's unclear whether the SCP-099-ID was found or used by the IJAMEAb. This was most likely caused by the disorder during the Indonesian independence struggle, which gave IJAMEA detachments located in Indonesia plenty of time to purge its files. Nevertheless, the Indonesian independence struggle would eventually end with the Dutch recognising and transferring its sovereignty over the islands to the Indonesian government on December 1949. The transfer of sovereignty resulted in the merging of S.O.Z.S. to the International Foundationc, which was how our branch of the Foundation gained access to the S.O.Z.S.' files on SCP-099-ID. Unfortunately, these files would only become relevant after half a century has passed.
However, as mentioned, it's suspected that not all files on SCP-099-ID was successfully secured by the S.O.Z.S. in 1942. While the post-independence Indonesian government went through many upheavals, an Anomalous Affairs Service (Jawatan Urusan Anomali) was formed by President Soekarno's government. However, a few days before being inaugurated as the President of the Republic of Indonesia, Acting President Soeharto ordered the restructuringd of the Anomalous Affairs Service into the Institute for Anomalous Affairs (IAA; Lembaga Urusan Anomali a.k.a. LEMRUSAN). It was this IAA which found SCP-099-ID, though precisely how SCP-099-ID or its files were found is still unclear, beyond the fact that SCP-099-ID came into the IAA's possession before the 1971 elections. Afterwards, the IAA consistently used SCP-099-ID to help prop the New Order government of Soeharto.
A number of IAA documents appropriated by the Foundation indicate that the anomalous effects of SCP-099-ID is proportional with the speed of its swinging motions. While there is no clear manner to measure this, this conclusion is indirectly proven by the chronological match between occurrences of public instability during the New Order as compared to the IAA's internal documents instructing uses of SCP-099-ID.
Then, in 1995, our Foundation launched its first internal audit. This was done alongside a massive reorganization of the Foundation’s archives. The corresponding archival rework unearthed old S.O.Z.S. files, which alerted the Foundation to SCP-099-ID's existence. An investigation was then ordered by the Executive Council on the whereabouts of SCP-099-ID, and by the middle of 1996, it was found that the IAA had secured SCP-099-ID at one of its offices in Jakarta.
The Foundation took action afterwards, raiding the aforementioned office in early December 1996. The raid was arranged in such a way to pinpoint the blame on the Chaos Insurgency, to maintain good relations between the IAA and the Foundation. After successfully acquiring SCP-099-ID, it was temporarily secured and stored at Site-45 before moved to its current containment site.

Recent Information Updates
i. An analysis of the impact of SCP-099-ID’s appropriation by the Foundation from the IAA on the domestic instability of Indonesia during 1997 to 1998 is ongoing. Temporary hypothesis has clearly agreed on the existence of such efeects, but how decisive was the deprivation of SCP-099-ID's effects on the public instability of the time is still inconclusive.
ii. A proposal to analyse the impact of the conceptual linking of SCP-099-ID to the sovereign boundaries of the Dutch East Indies in 1910s on the strength of separatist movements of Aceh and Papua is under consideration by the Executive Council.
iii. The IAA, after its internal reorganization during the first half of the 2000s, has asked for Foundation cooperation to investigate the December 1996 raid against the IAA. The Executive Council has rebuffed this request and directed the IAA to the O5 Council and the Central-Anglosphere Foundation.
iv. The proposal of the director of Site-██ to move the containment and storage jurisdiction of SCP-099-ID to the Central-Anglosphere Foundation has been vetoed by the Executive Council. The O5 Council has not given an opinion on this veto.
Glossary
a. Speciale Onderzoeken Sectie (S.O.Z.S.), translated into the Section of Special Investigations, is a sub-service that handles anomalies under the Algemene Recherchedienst (ARD), the criminal police of the Dutch East Indies colonial government.
b. Imperial Japanese Anomalous Matters Examination Agency (IJAMEA), translated into Indonesian as the Badan Penyelidikan Anomali Kekaisaran Jepang or BAPANKEKAI.
c. Before the 2018 update of terminology initiated by SHINE, the Central-Anglosphere Foundation is dubbed simply as the "International Foundation". SHINE itself is an official backronym translation from the Indonesian branch's Bagian Pengelolaan Informasi dan Pengetahuan, also known as PENERANGAN, a local RAISA parallel.
d. The Anomalous Affairs Service, originally in Indonesian as the Jawatan Urusan Anomali, was formed by President Soekarno. The service was suspended in 1966, and Acting President Soeharto took over the service after his installment as president by the Indonesian parliament was secured.
