If I get a shift in the morning I will meet the workers. They are day laborers at the power plant, whose job is to repair iron pipes in the A3 region.
"please note that I am a member of security at a power plant in Aceh, Indonesia."
These workers are from local 3rd party companies, and members come from local villages. They work every day with different jobs, more heavy work. Salaries received at each time after work can be Rp. 100,000 to Rp. 150,000 a day. wages received are sufficient for their daily needs. To eat enough but for other things they have to save from the wages received until what is desired is fulfilled.
Many of them do not have permanent jobs so to meet their daily needs and the family is quite difficult. Working in a company as a dirty worker is not a good thing. Wages received do not necessarily meet the needs. Coupled with the #corona virus, which is increasingly spreading, making their work more difficult. There are restrictions and they must follow strict regulations and take tests to qualify for work.
But whatever obstacles and risks they keep trying hard to keep working. There was no word of surrender from their mouths, no tiredness on their faces. There are families they must meet their needs. You see !? they really enjoy their work, their faces show happiness.
Corona virus or covid-19 is a deadly disease. Corona virus has an impact on the economy of society, we cannot avoid it. For day-to-day workers like themselves also feel the effects of the corona virus. But what should they do, stay at home? obviously that's not a good solution. They are also aware and afraid of contracting the corona virus but they choose to keep working because they are more afraid of their children and wife being unable to eat..
May we avoid the corona virus and hopefully the virus will quickly leave. We expect the best so that our lives return to normal...
