Hundreds of thousands of workers took action across 22 provinces and 200 cities of Indonesia this week. Workers are demanding a living wage across the nation and are protesting against restriction to their rights to bargains as well as the current repression by police against trade unionists. Participation by workers in these actions has been very high (see pictures here, here, here and here, and video). In the last few years, the Indonesian labour movement has mobilised in their millions to demand better wages and conditions.
