Sweepers go to Jokowi over late payment

A

s many as 12 contracted sanitation workers visited Jakarta Governor Joko '€œJokowi'€ Widodo at his official residence in Menteng, Central Jakarta, complaining that they had not been paid for three months.

Jokowi said after the 10-minute meeting that he was unaware of the issue and would coordinate with the Sanitation Agency head.

'€œThey are hired by private companies. The city budget endorsement is delayed, so their salary is also late as the company has not been paid. I will check it,'€ he said, as quoted by tribunnews.com.
