Indonesian workers continue to fight for rights

On Wednesday of this week, major worker rallies were held in Indonesia in five major cities. These protests are a continuation of the unprecedented mobilisations that were witnessed in 2012. Workers are looking to consolidate the gains of last year and are seeking better health care provisions, establishment of a pension fund, more realistic indexing of wages and freedom in organising. More demonstrations are planned in the coming months
