Jakarta bins lingo test
Indonesia will withdraw a plan that would force foreign workers to take local language proficiency exams after protests from investors, government officials said.
Manpower Minister Muhammad Hanif Dhakiri earlier this month said the government will require all foreigners to pass Indonesian language tests to work in the country, a move seen by investors as protectionist.
Currently, foreigners do not have to speak Indonesian to get a work permit for Southeast Asia鈥檚 largest economy.
鈥淐oordinating ministers agreed last week that the planned regulation should be dropped. The details are now being worked out,鈥 said a government official.
A second official confirmed the plan will be withdrawn after 鈥渕any people complained, including domestic investors who said they needed foreign expertise.鈥
