Textile traders of Beringharjo traditional market in Yogyakarta have been suffering losses from a three-day blackout, which started on Friday.
“Traders like us should have earned more profit during long weekend. We can’t close our shops on days like these [despite the blackout],” Association of Beringharjo Market Traders Yogyakarta chairman Ujun Junaidi said Sunday as quoted by tempointeraktif.com.
Ujun said that a textile shop could get Rp 5 million [US$551] in revenue a day during normal long weekend. However, the blackout had cut the shop incomes to Rp 1 million a day, he added.
