Jackfruit seeds are high in carbohydrates, potassium, protein, calories, and phosphorus, and can be consumed by frying, boiling, or making chips. The trunk is hard, durable, and resistant to termite or fungal attack. It is often used to make household furniture, construction materials, and musical instruments.

The country's manufacturing industry is not in good shape. Although the flow of investment in the manufacturing industry is relatively heavy, the trend of layoffs in this sector is also relatively large. Referring to the report of the Ministry of Investment / Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM), manufacturing investment realization grew 24.68% year on year (yoy) to IDR 337 trillion in the first semester of 2024.

The Confederation of Workers Unions of the Archipelago (KSPN) stated that there were 14,500 textile workers who were laid off from the beginning of the year to July 2024. This number has the potential to increase to 15,000 workers given the planned closure of a textile factory in Bandung, West Java in August. Chairperson of the Indonesian Employers Association (Apindo) Shinta W. Kamdani stated that the potential for layoffs in the manufacturing industry still exists, especially in labor-intensive export-oriented sectors such as TPT. This sector has experienced tremendous pressure both in terms of market and business cost inflation. “Other manufacturing subsectors have a less risk of layoffs, but there is potential for a prolonged hiring freeze,” he said on Tuesday (30/7).

Apart from being triggered by an increase in business operating costs as a side effect of the rupiah exchange rate correction, people's purchasing power has also not stabilized so that market demand has decreased. Not only that, some businesses are also still waiting and seeing for business expansion due to the government transition. SOURCE
