Seventy-one people have so far died from exhaustion following the world’s largest single-day election in Indonesia last week, according to the government. Some 4,000 others fell sick between Feb 14 and Feb 18 due to fatigue after helping run the Feb 14 election, Hasyim Asy’ari, chairman of the nation’s poll body said in a press conference in Jakarta on Monday.
The latest election still claimed dozens of lives even after the government imposed an age cap for volunteers and mandated health checks after more than 500 polling station workers died following the 2019 vote.
What is going on there, Indonesia? That’s abnormal to say the least. These are not groupings of words you would expect to be seeing outside of like an election being held during a civil war or something.
