Iqbal hopes the demonstration can be directly received by the Minister or Deputy Minister of Manpower.The workers will raise several demands during tomorrow's protest, including regarding the payment of Eid al-Fitr allowances, as many have yet to receive theirs.Iqbal also requested that the Eid al-Fitr allowance be exempt from tax. \"As it is integrated into the wages, the allowance is taxed a significant amount,\" he said.The workers also demand that the government cancel the import of Indian vehicles conducted by PT Agrinas Pangan Nusantara. This step is considered detrimental and potentially leads to mass layoffs, since domestic manufacturers are still deemed capable of meeting the demands.Furthermore, Iqbal said that workers demand the elimination of outsourcing and reject low wages, especially since President Prabowo Subianto vowed on May Day, May 1, 2025, at Monas, Jakarta.\"But there has been any policy to eliminate outsourcing thus far. It's like an unfulfilled promise of paradise,\" he said.Workers are also raising the demand for approval for the Domestic Workers Bill, as well as calling for the Iran war to stop, as it affects industrial commodity prices and creates layoff threats due to cost-cutting measures.Read: UI Student Senate Demands Police Chief's Resignation in Jakarta ProtestClick here to get the latest news updates from Tempo on Google News","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.36.2","shortVersion":"4.36.2","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2616340920","isCrawlerRequest":true}
