worker Indonesia

Minah, a 47-year-old woman from Cikande, Banten, has faced severe economic hardship due to radioactive contamination from a nearby steel melting factory, PT Peter Metal Technology. Working previously as a shrimp peeler at PT Bahari Makmur Sejati, her job was jeopardized when exports were halted due to contamination issues. Now struggling to support her family, she relies on selling tampah (a traditional rice sifter) for a meager income, while her husband, Rudi, has also lost his job at the factory. Minah's story highlights the human impact of industrial negligence and environmental disasters.
