Indonesia Workers Strike to Demand Higher Pay

Thousands of workers from over 40 labor unions are protesting in Jakarta for higher wages. They aim to disrupt city life to highlight their demand for a minimum wage increase from the approved US$200 to US$250. This protest is a significant challenge for President Joko Widodo, who recently removed fuel subsidies, causing a 30% rise in gasoline prices. The government has not yet responded to the protests, but there is a possibility of revising the minimum wage policy to change the frequency of adjustments.

What are the expected benefits that President Joko Widodo claims will result from the savings from fuel subsidies?

What is the government's stance on revising the minimum wage frequency?
