JAKARTA - A group of workers from various federations held an action at the Arjuna Wiwaha Horse Statue, Central Jakarta. Actually, they wanted to stage an action in front of the Constitutional Court building, Jalan Medan Merdeka Barat.
Unfortunately, the police have installed barriers in the form of barricade cars and barbed wire. Plus, a number of officers lined up behind barbed wire.
"Police, with respect, we will take peaceful action as long as we can in front of the Constitutional Court," said the orator on a commando car parked in front of the Sapta Pesona Building, Jalan Medan Merdeka Barat, Wednesday, December 8.
Some workers tried to shake the wire as a form of pressure to open their access road.
"Open! Open! Open!" cried the workers.
As of this writing, this labor group is still trying to negotiate so that they can launch their demonstration.
For information, the workers held a massive action today. They will make two demands. Initially, the action plan was held in front of the Constitutional Court Building demanding an explanation from the Constitutional Court for the decision on the lawsuit against Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation which was declared conditionally unconstitutional.
Then, the action was continued in front of the DKI City Hall to collect Governor Anies Baswedan's promise to revise the DKI provincial minimum wage (UMP) in 2022. This is because Anies promised to revise the governor's decree (SK) related to the UMP on the basis of justice.
The police deployed 400 personnel to guard labor demonstrations at several points in Jakarta. At least, there are five locations that became the point of action, namely the DPR, the KPK, the Ministry of Manpower, City Hall and the Horse Statue.
