“The extraordinary impact of COVID-19 is the disruption of widespread community activities, especially with the implementation of large-scale social restrictions (PSBB) policies, not least the condition of online motorcycle taxi drivers who are very limited in their movements and marginalized people who are affected and also slightly lighten their burden through free lunch from UMN,” explained Indiwan.
