Congress Alliance of the Indonesian Labour Unions (KASBI) chair Nining Elitos said that there were a number of demands made by the workers.

“First, to cancel the fuel prices hike, lower prices of daily necessities because people are struggling due to stagnant income and retrenchments, in villages and cities. Then repeal the Omnibus (Job Creation) Law, including cancelling the revised Penal Code bill,” said Nining.
