In Indonesia, the number of new cases of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) per day has been elevated at around 4,000, and the situation is still far from contained. Although the local governments in major cities and regions including DKI-Jakarta introduced large scale social restrictions (PSBB in Indonesian) in April, the restrictions began to be gradually mitigated since June. However, the restrictions had to be repeatedly extended, calling for the governments to make a tough maneuvering between containing COVID-19 infections and reopening economic activities.
