A home for transgender elderly in Indonesia

Jakarta, Java, INDONESIA: In this photograph taken on January 29, 2013, Rica, 26, (R seated) and other Indonesian transgenders take their spots in a dimly section of a Jakarta street to pick up customers. Transgenders locally known as waria largely remain a target of harassment and intimidation, most outcast from their families across Southeast Asias biggest nation of 240 million people. Discrimination forces many into sex work, fuelling a spike in HIV rates from six to 34 percent between 1997 and 2007 among transgenders in Jakarta, Health Ministry data shows. An estimated 35,000 Indonesians are transgenders, the Asia-Pacific Coalition on Male Sexual Health reports, but activists suspect the figure is much higher. AFP PHOTO/Romeo Gacad
A dozen elderly women are gathered inside the pink house, set on a narrow dirt road in a dusty suburb of Jakarta. Together they sew, bake and chat.
