JAKARTA - Crowds from various labor unions staging an action against the Omnibus Law on Cipta Kerja in the Arjuna Wiwaha Horse Statue area, Jalan Medan Merdeka Barat have disbanded peacefully.

Thousands of workers from the Joint People's Labor Movement (GEBRAK), who since noon conveyed their aspirations, left the demonstration site at around 17:20 WIB.

Based on VOI's observation, before leaving the location of the action, the action participants first sang a song titled Turuh Tani. A number of masses immediately danced to the reggae music playing from the top of the command car.

Not only that, there were protesters who lit red flares and made the masses even more engrossed in their dancing while dispersing.

"We are closing our action, expressing gratitude and appreciation from far away, the place is also far away but our friends are fighting against the Omnibus Law," said an orator from the top of the command car, Thursday, October 22.

Meanwhile, from behind barbed wire, the police also welcomed the protesters' return. The police, who spoke through loudspeakers, also expressed their gratitude to the crowd who had organized their demonstrations since noon.

Central Jakarta Police Chief Kombes Heru Novato thanked the protesters while waving his hand.

"We say a thousand thanks, we thank you and be careful. Hopefully you will get home safely. Don't lose those who bring small children. If the girlfriend's wife is lost, you can find another one. Thank you for today's action," he said.

Furthermore, after the protesters dispersed from the location the cleaning officers started their activities. They clean up the remains of trash scattered on the street.

Meanwhile, a number of police officers are still on guard even though the barbed fences on two sections of Jalan Medan Merdeka Barat have been opened although motorized vehicles are still not allowed to pass.
