JAKARTA - Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta Ahmad Riza Patria said that the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government was observing the decision of the Jakarta State Administrative Court (PTUN) which lowered the provincial minimum wage (UMP) for DKI from Rp. 4.6 million to Rp. 4.5 million.
Riza also admitted that his party was considering the opportunity to file an appeal against the court's decision that was sued by the DKI Jakarta Indonesian Employers Association (Apindo).
"We respect the court's decision. However, the provincial government is evaluating whether we will appeal or not," said Riza in North Jakarta, Wednesday, July 13.
Riza claims that, in principle, the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government is trying to ensure that workers or laborers in Jakarta get welfare through the determination of the UMP. However, the provincial government also continues to pay attention to the sustainability of entrepreneurs.
"In determining the UMP, we work together between the government and the private sector and with workers to sit down together to find the best solution," said Riza.
"If the income of workers increases, in fact it also means that the private sector is also increasing. It means that there is an increase in income from the private sector. This means that there is an achievement compared to the private sector," he continued.
For information, the DKI Jakarta State Administrative Court (PTUN) canceled the decision of the Governor (Kepgub) of DKI Jakarta Anies Baswedan regarding the 2022 Provincial Minimum Wage (UMP) whose lawsuit was filed by a number of entrepreneurs.
The decision of the Jakarta Administrative Court granted all claims from entrepreneurs. The plaintiffs are the Regional Leadership Council of the Indonesian Employers' Association (Apindo) DKI Jakarta.
In addition to canceling the Gubernatorial Decree, the Jakarta Administrative Court in its ruling also required Anies, as the defendant, to revoke Gubernatorial Decree No. 1517 of 2021 concerning the 2022 UMP which was issued on 16 December 2021.
Another ruling is that Anies obliges Anies to issue a new State Administrative Decree regarding the 2022 UMP based on the recommendation of the DKI Jakarta Wage Council, namely the elements of the labor union Number: I/Depeprov/XI/2021 on November 15, 2021, amounting to Rp4,573,845.
The Jakarta Administrative Court also sentenced Anies as the defendant and the second defendants intervened jointly and severally to pay court fees of Rp. 642,000.
