The perpetrators have the option to pay a fine of 150,000 Indonesian rupiahs (£ 7.83) or they must do coronavirus community service.

If they choose the latter, the perpetrators will have to wear a warning jacket with the word “offender” on the back, sign a register and join the culprit in the back of a truck, Sky News reports.

The penalties vary. In Jakarta, some people had to lie in a coffin for a few minutes.

“Hopefully this can act as a deterrent,” said a local guide named Suyono.
