Jakarta – Parcel vendors claiming a ban on government officials exchanging gifts at Idul Fitri is harming their businesses continued their protest Tuesday.
The vendors, who Monday gathered outside the office of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), which issued the ban, marched on the House of Representatives on Tuesday to demand it be scrapped.
"The KPK has to review its decision," Fahira Fahmi Idris, chairwoman of the Indonesian Association of Parcel Vendors and daughter of Industry Minister Fahmi Idris, told the House of Representatives Commission III on law and home security.
Commission III chairman Trimedya Panjaitan said the House would discuss the issue in a meeting with KPK heads next week.
