The Straits Times (10 Dec 1985): Child labour laws 'ignored' (Jakarta)

The Straits Times, 10 Dec 1985: Child labour laws 'ignored' (former Labour Minister)

Open file in Google DriveRead full text

Straits Times, 10 December 1985, Jakarta dateline: lead snippet only (full text behind NewspaperSG terms). A former Labour Minister says Indonesia has adequate child-labour laws but employers ignore them and children fear to report breaches. The sweep log tentatively suggests the unnamed speaker may be S.K. Trimurti; the snippet does not confirm this, so the identification is unverified.

Straits Times, 10 Desember 1985, datelin Jakarta: hanya cuplikan awal (teks lengkap di balik syarat NewspaperSG). Seorang mantan Menteri Perburuhan menyatakan Indonesia punya undang-undang buruh anak yang memadai, tetapi pengusaha mengabaikannya dan anak-anak takut melapor. Catatan penyisiran menduga pembicara yang tak disebut namanya mungkin S.K. Trimurti; cuplikan tidak memastikannya, sehingga identifikasi belum terverifikasi.

“Indonesia has adequate laws governing child labour, but employers often ignore them and children are usually afraid to report breaches, a former Labour Minister said today.”
