Before becoming a civil servant candidate, I was a non-permanent teacher. It was not easy because I had a lot of work, but the pay was low—very unreasonable. The salary for a non-permanent teacher in Bantul was around 300,000 rupiahs per month ($20), far below the regional minimum wage, and was not commensurate with the time, effort, and cost required to obtain a bachelor's degree.
