strong>TANGERANG: At least 100,000 workers grouped under the Tangerang Labor Action Committee are planning to strike on Wednesday to demand the government eliminate outsourcing, contract-based employment and cheap wage politics currently applied by industrial firms.
“The current system has caused workers the loss of certainty and rights over finding a decent job,” Poniman, the chairman of Tangerang Raya Workers Union told The Jakarta Post on Monday, adding that the workers would gather at 27 industrial zones in Tangerang including Cikokol, Jl. Daan Mogot, Karawaci, Poris Plawad and Serpong.
The rally in Tangerang, Poniman said, was to show support for the Indonesian Workers Assembly’s (MBBI) planned strike in Jakarta the same day.
