Episode overview

Indonesia has been hit hardest by the coronavirus pandemic in South-East Asia. Its economy has taken a massive blow, and many are struggling to put food on the table. As government support is widely criticized as ineffective, people have come together to provide mutual aid under the banner of Gotong Royong. The phrase means "carrying together" in Javanese and its spirit can be found across the country. Meet the women and volunteers working hard to support their neighbors.
