Indonesia Hari Raya Idul Fitri / Lebaran 2011
In Indonesia, which has the largest Muslim population in the world, Eid is known as Hari Raya Idul Fitri (or more informally as Lebaran). It is a national holiday, often last for as long as two weeks, with the exact date determined by local lunar observation. Hari Raya Idul Fitri is usually a public holiday for 2 days, another 2-3 days of company given holidays, and about 5 days of forced-leave.
In Indonesia, the first day of Lebaran 2011 is likely to fall on Tuesday, 30 August 2011. Please note Muslim festivals are timed according to local sightings of various phases of the moon and thus this Hari Raya date given is approximation.
The official days-of for Idul Fitri, including in 2011 is usually for 2 days, which for Lebaran 2011 will be from Tuesday, 30 August 2011 to Wednesday, 31 August 2011. However, in practice many companies have much longer days-off, some of which are done via a forced annual-leave or collective annual-leave.
Aside from the day-off, in Indonesia Idul Fitri has a legally mandated salary bonus for all employees, known as Tunjangan Hari Raya as enforced by Indonesia’s Department of Labour, Employment and Society. The mandated amount of this salary bonus differs by provinces.
For example, within Jakarta region the THR bonus must be at least Rp 1 million but not less than one month’s full salary paid in advance of Idul Fitri, in addition to the employee’s regular salary. Breaching or withholding THR is a very serious labour law infraction and can be punished severely, regardless of employer status or position.
Idul Fitri is the biggest holiday in Indonesia. Business for clothes and festive necessities are having their best month during the Ramadan with shopping malls and bazaars are filled with people days ahead of Idul Fiti, causing a distinctive festive atmosphere throughout the country and traffic mayhem. In contrast, the first few weeks after the celebration is the quietest weeks for business and road traffic.
In Jakarta, where traffic jam lasting for hours is a norm rather than exception, a huge difference can be felt during the festival, with roads and streets are so sparse you can probably drive for kilometers without seeing any other car.
Many banks, government and private offices are closed for the duration of the Idul festivities, known collectively as the Lebaran.
