Bill to protect Indonesia’s workers leaves 2m exposedBloombergIndonesia is the largest democracy in the world without a law to protect its domestic workers. Indonesian workers stage a protest urging the parliament to pass a domestic workers’ protection bill in Jakarta on March 14. For nearly two decades, a bill to protect domestic workers in Indonesia has languished in parliament. “We’re sending a message to the world that Indonesian domestic workers get proper protections,” Indonesian Vice Minister Hiariej said. “We always ask other countries to protect our domestic workers, and to ask that, we need a law ourselves,” he said.
