JAKARTA - Chairman of the Indonesian Employers' Association (Apindo) Shinta W. Kamdani responded to the government's decision to apply collective leave on June 28-30 in line with Eid al-Adha celebrations.
According to Shinta, the government must have thought carefully about the policy for the common good.
"In principle, entrepreneurs must respect the plan related to the Eid al-Adha holiday to 2 days to accommodate the majority of Indonesian people who are Muslim and celebrate Eid al-Adha," he told VOI in a written message on Wednesday, June 21.
However, the Sahid Group boss conveyed a special message to the government to be able to consider comprehensively the impact of the long holiday for the business world.
"But indeed what must be considered is that the long number of holidays can interfere with business activities and productivity," he said.
He also encouraged the government so that decisions that had a broad impact on society must involve various parties, including building dialogue with entrepreneurs.
