People violating mask rules made to lie in coffin in Indonesia

Authorities in the Indonesian capital Jakarta are asking those who violate mask-wearing rules to lay inside a coffin and “contemplate their actions”.

Local media reports that those who are caught without a mask in the Kalisari district of the city must count to 100 while on display for passers-by take pictures.

“With Covid-19 there is a risk of them being laid inside a real coffin,” head of the East Jakarta Public Order Agency, Budhy Novian told reports.
