Gotong Royong Vaccination: MSME Businessmen GIVE UP

Chairman of the Indonesian MSME Association (Akumindo) Ikhsan Ingratubun said the ability of MSME segment companies to participate in vaccination programs

organized by the private sector was far below the nominal set by the government. "The current condition of MSMEs is still severe," he said. Meanwhile, in the Decree of the Minister of Health (KMK) No. HK 01. 07/Menkes/4643/2021 regarding the Determination of the Purchase Price of Sinopharm's Vaccine Production, the government sets the price of the vaccine at Rp. 321,660 per dose, plus the injection fee of Rp. 117,910, bringing the total price to Rp. 879,140 per two injections. “The MSME Association rejects the price set by the government for the Gotong Royong Vaccination program. It is possible that no MSME companies can participate. We are better off waiting for the government's vaccination program,” he said. Similarly, the Secretary General of the All-Indonesian Workers' Organization (OPSI) Timboel Siregar assessed that the price set by the government would burden employers, especially in the labor-intensive sector. This has the potential to discourage many companies from participating in the program so that the acceleration of vaccination implementation is hampered.
