        "summary": "The Head of the Bogor Regency Manpower Office, Nana Mulyana, anticipates an influx of new job seekers during this year's Lebaran return flow, as returnees often bring along friends or family to seek employment opportunities. This surge is expected to heighten competition in the local job market, particularly due to Bogor's relatively high minimum wage of Rp 5.1 million, which attracts workers despite some companies relocating to areas with lower wages. To address this, the local government plans to enhance the skills of Bogor residents to better match industry needs, while emphasising the importance of resilience and perseverance among job seekers amid limited opportunities.",
        "content": "<p>The Head of the Bogor Regency Manpower Office, Nana Mulyana,\nestimates that there will be an addition of new job seekers along with\nthis year\u2019s Lebaran return flow. This usually happens because long-time\nreturnees like to bring friends or family members to look for work.<\/p>\n<p>Nana stated that this will increase competition in job hunting in\nBogor. Moreover, at present, Bogor is targeted by job seekers due to\nconsiderations of the Regency Minimum Wage (UMK).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cActually, there are many job opportunities in their home areas,\nbecause our data shows that several companies have moved from Bogor to\nregions with lower UMK. So, Bogor\u2019s UMK, which reaches Rp 5.1 million,\nbecomes one of the reasons they become job seekers here,\u201d said Nana to\nTempo on Friday, 27 March 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Nana revealed that the Manpower Office cannot prohibit\nresidents from outside Bogor from seeking work in Bogor Regency. Because\nthat is a human right and there is no regulation governing it.<\/p>\n<p>What the local government can do, said Nana, is to add skills or\nexpertise to job seekers from or who are residents of Bogor Regency. \u201cWe\ncannot prohibit residents from outside Bogor from seeking work in Bogor\nRegency; at most, we strive for job seekers from Bogor Regency to have\nbetter skills that match the existing job needs or industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Not only that, Nana hopes that the workforce from Bogor Regency has a\nstrong mentality or is work-ready. Because the number of job\nopportunities in Bogor Regency is not comparable to the number of job\nseekers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo for job seekers, they must realise that job opportunities are now\nvery difficult. If they already have a job, don\u2019t let it go easily if\nthere are obstacles in the work environment. We must have a resilient\nmentality and high fighting spirit,\u201d said Nana.<\/p>",
