Resumption of activities of Japanese companies in the Indonesian capital Partial removal of some restrictions 13:54 on June 8
In Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, some of the major restrictions that were implemented to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus were alleviated, and local Japanese companies resumed their economic activities on the 8th.
In Jakarta, restrictions were gradually relaxed from 5th of this month, and corporate activities and public transport operations resumed from 8th.
Of these, Japanese companies that sell tools and other items to manufacturers were limited to less than half the number of employees who normally went to work, and vacated their seats by one meter or more.
President Daisuke Maeda said, "The most important issue is to ensure the safety of staff. I want to promote online operations in preparation for a prolonged situation."
Indonesia has over 31,000 infected people, with 1851 deaths, the highest number in Southeast Asia, and about 3 million people losing their jobs. The challenge is how to balance infection prevention.
