Presidential candidate number one, Anies Baswedan, stated that women's wages should be equal to men's.

He made this statement during the fifth Presidential Election debate of 2024, themed Social Welfare, Culture, Education, Information Technology, Health, Employment, Human Resources, and Inclusion, held at the Jakarta Convention Center (JCC) on Sunday (February 4th, 2024).

According to data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), the wages of female and male workers in Indonesia are indeed disparate.

In 2022, the average national wage for male workers reached Rp3.33 million, while for women it was lower, averaging Rp2.59 million per month.

The average wage for male workers in 2022 also increased by Rp370,000 compared to 2021. However, in the same period, the average wage for female workers only increased by approximately Rp240,000, as shown in the graph.
