Many Indonesian citizens are worried that authorities are acting too soon to lift Covid19 restrictions

While Indonesia’s neighbors scrambled early this year to try to contain the spread of the coronavirus, the government of the world’s fourth most populous nation insisted that everything was fine. Indonesia’s southern neighbor Australia and some fellow Southeast Asian countries such as Singapore took action as early as late January that included containment and tracing measures.
Jakarta itself has confirmed more than 8,300 cases and at least 533 deaths, the most in Indonesia. The city had roughly 3,400 new cases in both April and May, and has reported at least 1,037 new ones so far in June. The Islamic holy month of Ramadan ended in late May in Indonesia, the world’s most populous Muslim-majority country.
“The second wave of Covid-19 potential here is high,” Sudarmono said. “This is because there is a lack of awareness and there is no clear plan.”
