TEMPO.CO, Bandung - Hundreds of laborers incorporated in the Federation Of Unions Of Electrical Metal Machine, the Indonesian Labor Union and Bandung Union, staged a massive protest in front of the West Java-Banten National Electricity Company (PLN) building in celebration of International Labor Day today.

"Labor Day [holiday] is not a gift from the government, but the struggle of laborers for many years.  Now, let us struggle for the rights of laborers. Happy Labor Day," said the protest coordinator Ajat Sudrajat on Thursday, May 1, 2014.

During the protest, the laborers demanded clarification from PLN concerning the increase of electricity tariffs. They asserted that increasing electricity tariffs threatens the well-being of contract-based laborers.
