JAKARTA: Mr Haekal Anshori, an employee in a small T-shirt printing shop, has been trying to contact his employer for days. He was trying to get an update on his monthly salary, which is now one week overdue.
He is owed 2.5 million rupiah (US$212.50), which would have been a lifesaver as Jakarta is on the verge of implementing the so-called large-scale social restrictions to battle the COVID-19 pandemic.
