Pretty much the same situation with many other countries. In Singapore they will put you into quarantine in a hotel for two weeks and you have to pay a fixed sum. If you are lucky it will be a five star hotel, even the Marina Bay Sands, if less lucky it could be a basic three star hotel with no facilities. Once you are in your room you are not allowed to leave it. In Indonesia foreigners without a working permit or long term visa are still not allowed into the country at least until the end of 2020 and perhaps even longer than that.

We all need to make some compromises at this moment and hope things get better sooner rather than later.
