JAKARTA, Feb 3 (Reuters) - As deaths from the coronavirus pandemic mount in Indonesia, the capital city’s graveyards are expanding to keep up.
Struggling since last March to get the coronavirus under control in the world’s fourth most populous nation, Indonesia has now surpassed one million confirmed cases and more than 30,000 deaths, the highest in Southeast Asia.
Ivan Nurcahyo, a spokesman for the Jakarta parks agency, said six new graveyard locations had been added in various areas across the city, with three already in use.
“In the past two weeks, and in the past few months, there has been a spike in a few areas where the burials have been carried out with (COVID-19) protocols,” he said.
