Hello everybody,
I just wanna make it short:
Iam German my wife is Indonesian and we have one child, we are married since 2010. Iam 35 years old and we moved to Batam and stay permanent. No big problems so far.
We don't work because my inheritance is enough for the next couple of years.
First BPJS said I can join after 6 months. Another worker said I can join directly, he even made a call to make sure it is possible.
Now suddenly they say my wife and my child can join, because they are Indonesian but I cannot join because as a foreigner you HAVE TO work to join. I don't wanna ramble too much now.
My question is: does anyone here have the same or any experience with that problem and is it really true?
As usual in Indonesia you can never be sure, cause not matter where u go ( government place, bank, insurance, notaris) , every worker seems to have their own facts about the law. Often you get 4 different answers from the same place.
Thanks for the help,
Marius
