        "summary": "The Indonesian government is holding off on taking a formal stance regarding the revision of the Manpower Law until the House of Representatives (DPR) completes its draft. Manpower Minister Yassierli stated that the ministry is currently gathering input from various stakeholders, including workers and employers, on issues such as wages and social security for online transport drivers. The minister welcomed proposals to strengthen bipartite dialogue between employers and trade unions to streamline industrial relations dispute resolution.",
        "content": "<p>The government is still waiting for the deliberation process of the\nManpower Bill currently underway in the House of Representatives (DPR),\naccording to Manpower Minister Yassierli. He noted that the revision of\nLaw Number 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower is a DPR initiative, so the\ngovernment is choosing to respect the ongoing legislative mechanism\nbefore engaging in official discussions. \u201cThis process is still in the\nDPR. We from the government will, at the appropriate time during the\ndiscussion, prepare our stance,\u201d Yassierli said in Jakarta on Monday. He\nreiterated that the government\u2019s current position is to await the\nresults of the draft preparation from the DPR while monitoring the\nlegislative process. \u201cWe are waiting. We must respect it, as this is an\ninitiative of the DPR. We will wait,\u201d he stated. Meanwhile, the Ministry\nof Manpower continues to absorb aspirations from various groups as part\nof the government\u2019s preparations for the bill\u2019s discussion. Input is\nbeing gathered from workers, employers, and other stakeholders to serve\nas material for formulating the government\u2019s position. \u201cThat is the\nphase the government is currently undertaking,\u201d Yassierli said. The\naspiration-gathering process also covers various developing labour\nissues, including wage regulations and proposals from online transport\nworkers regarding health insurance. However, the government will not\ntake a position until the DPR completes its draft. Without commenting on\nthe substance of the proposed regulations, Yassierli responded\npositively to the idea of strengthening bipartite dialogue between\nemployers and trade unions from the early stages of resolving industrial\nrelations issues. He assessed that such a mechanism could open more\neffective communication channels. \u201cSo that when bipartite agreements are\nto be reached, it will certainly be easier,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>",
