A worker holds up a poster at a rally at the House of Representatives in Senayan, Jakarta, on Wednesday (12/2/2020). The protesters objected to the omnibus bill on job creation, which they claimed would sacrifice workers’ welfare for the sake of investment. They say the bill threatens workers’ rights and welfare by excluding detailed provisions on minimum wages and the hourly wage system, eliminating severance pay, reducing work hours and altering the labor system.

JAKARTA, KOMPAS – The omnibus bill on job creation will lead to the central government taking over some of regional administration’s authorities. Regional administrations are requesting in-depth deliberation and research on this plan.

Regarding Article 170 of the omnibus bill, which stipulates that government regulations (PPs) can be used to amend bylaws, Law and Human Rights Minister Yasonna Laoly has said that the wording may have been mistyped.
