The election of Joko (Jokowi) Widodo (2014-2024) represented a wave of nationalism and protectionism that swept the country. Not satisfied with being a major source of raw materials, agricultural products, and cheap labor for China (yes, China outsources), the new administration wanted Indonesia to become a manufacturing and shipping hub to the world.
And then came the regulations.
I just hope that this isn’t in the future of the US. This was just ridiculous. Nobody wanted it but they got it good and hard.
