JAKARTA/SEMARANG - Indonesian ministries, state agencies and regional administrations are ready to enforce the newly announced remote work policy for civil servants as the government seeks to conserve energy supplies amid soaring global prices caused by the Middle East war.
The remote work policy was announced by Coordinating Economy Minister Airlangga Hartarto on the sidelines of a presidential visit to Seoul, South Korea, on the night of March 31, as part of energy-savings measures called the “eight-point work culture transformation policy”.
