But what happens to women in Indonesia? There seems to be a disappointing side and it did not disappoint. The bummer is, cases of corruption and bribery is now widely dominated by the women involved. And that does not disappoint is, at this time we see a lot of women workers who have some professions should be done by men. For example, charging a fuel which is now dominated by women, conductor public transport, even pedicab drivers and motorcycle taxis.
