News about them is mostly about how they and their fellow-workers are being kicked out (sometimes literally) from the places where they do business by the so-called 'executing troops' of the Jakarta government. It is known that the government of Jakarta has been adopting a dual position regarding informal sector workers. In most cases these workers are treated as a problem for society. At other times they are expected, for example, to be a certain kind of attraction for tourists. Being positioned as the source of problems for the city of Jakarta and facing unequal treatment, it is evident that these informal sector workers have significantly less control or power over their own lives compared to workers in the formal sector. Even if the number of workers in the informal sector exceeds those in the formal sector, these workers have much less access to education, wealth and success. In short, informal sector workers in Jakarta belong to the minority. Amidst such positioning and condition, this chapter takes a closer look at Jakarta informal sector workers, focusing on pedagang keliling (hawkers). Through several cases of pedagang keliling in two contrastive residential areas in Jakarta, I show the struggle of these informal sector workers during a prolonged crisis in Indonesia. Looking at their struggle, we will try to grasp their perceptions of their daily lives as hawkers and their survival strategies, not only during the crisis but also since then. Let us begin with some introduction of lives of pedagang keliling, which are based on real people's lives. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini!
