West Java Governor Ahmad Heryawan set a new minimum wage for all employers in Bekasi regency on Saturday, following an agreement reached by the government, the Indonesian Employers’ Association (Apindo) and Bekasi labor unions in Jakarta on Friday evening.
The standard minimum wages for the 2012 fiscal year, as stipulated in the gubernatorial decree No. 561/2012, are as follows: Rp 1,491,000 for general workers, Rp 1,715,000 for industrial workers in Category I and Rp 1,849,000 for Category II workers.

Does this mean West Java Governor Ahmad Heryawan plans to collect a lot of votes from workers in the upcoming election?

It’s good that finally workers got what they wanted: higher wages. Unfortunately, they achieved it by trapping hundreds of people on the highway. It was effective but unacceptable.
