Thank you for pointing out that Indonesia does respect the right to freedom.

Under the Islamist version of "freedom" perhaps but not based on the definition of freedom the rest of the world uses.

Right to build temples or are you tired of being proven wrong?

"Right" is different from practice. Moreover, there is no "right" for Ahmadiyas as there is a freeze on their activity.
Why not comment on this in your religiously"free" Indonesia:

The civil registration system continued to restrict religious freedom of persons who did not belong to the five officially recognized faiths. Many animists, Baha'is, Confucians, and members of other minority faiths found it impossible to register their marriages or children's births because the Government did not recognize their religion. For example, the National Human Rights Commission (Komnas-HAM) investigated cases in Batam where the registration office refused to register the marriages of Confucian couples. Neither the registration office nor the Mayor has provided Komnas-Ham with an explanation for the refusals.** Couples prevented from registering their marriage or the birth of their child in accordance with their faiths must either convert to one of the five recognized faiths or misrepresent themselves as belonging to one of the five. Those who choose not to register their marriages or births risk future difficulties. For example, many children without a birth certificate cannot enroll in school or may not qualify for scholarships. Individuals without birth certificates will not qualify for government jobs. **

Why does Indonesia recognize only five religions? Why not recognize all religions? After all, they are all equal in Indonesia, right?
