        "summary": "The Indonesian Employers Association (Apindo) has urged that the upcoming Labour Bill, expected by late 2026, should act as a driver for economic growth rather than a barrier to investment. The association emphasises the need for regulations that balance worker protection with a competitive investment climate, specifically avoiding a 'one size fits all' approach across different industries.",
        "content": "<p>The Indonesian Employers Association (Apindo) has issued a warning\nthat the drafting of the Labour Bill, which is targeted for completion\nby the end of October 2026, must not become an obstacle to investment\nand national economic growth.<\/p>\n<p>Bob Azam, Chairman of the Labour Division of Apindo, stated that\nlabour regulations must serve as a \u2018prime mover\u2019 to support the 8%\neconomic growth target. He noted that to achieve this, Indonesia cannot\nrely solely on domestic potential; foreign investment is essential to\nstrengthen economic expansion.<\/p>",
