However, after about a month of gradual steps to reopen the economy, Indonesia has recorded a significant increase in reported cases and deaths despite a new set of health protocols governing activities in public places, which include the basics, such as wearing face masks, washing hands with soap, physical distancing and maintaining a healthy and hygienic lifestyle.

As of July 20, Indonesia had recorded 88,214 total cases and 4,239 deaths, twice the cumulative figure from the previous month.

In June 2020, YouGov Omnibus conducted a survey on the public’s preparation for the relaxation of restrictions that involved 2,000 respondents. Some 35 percent of the respondents expressed fear about possibly being infected by the virus as they returned to life in public.  

The survey also highlighted the level of fear that respondents had when adapting to new habits outside the house, especially when they were in crowds. Fear related to public transportation was foremost, with 51 percent reporting worries, followed by gatherings with friends (41 percent) and going to market or supermarket (34 percent). Approximately 42 percent of the respondents said uncertain adherence to health protocols and undetectable sanitation were the major drivers of their fears.

PT AIA Financial (AIA), a leading and trusted life insurance company in Indonesia, understands the worrying situation that Indonesian families face.

That’s why the company has launched a comprehensive protection program for Indonesian families called “AIA 1dapat4” to ensure peace of mind in adapting to new habits.

AIA President Director SainthanSatyamoorthyhas said, “Entering the phase of adapting to new habits, people will return to activities outside their homes. As the pandemic has yet to end, it is necessary for us to make comprehensive preparations, including keeping mentally and physically healthy, adhering to health protocols set by the government and life protection and health for ourselves and our beloved families.”

“In line with AIA’s commitment to help millions of families in Indonesia live healthier, longer, better lives, AIA has launched a range of innovations. With the AIA 1dapat4 program, people can protect themselves and their beloved families so they can conduct activities with peace of mind.”

The AIA 1dapat4 program is designed to give protection to families.With the purchase of one insurance policy, four family members mentioned in the Family Card are entitled to the protection. The program offers a highly affordable premium to get protection for four people, starting from Rp 1 million per month from July 1 to Sept. 30.

The program is available for existing AIA customers and new customers, with the total protection worth Rp 100 million for four family members. The protection that they get is in the form of Donations for In-patient Care, worth Rp 1 million per day in a hospital, with maximum of 25 days per person, especially for customers diagnosed with COVID-19. Another protection that customers can get is called Insurance Protection Affinity Personal Accident. The face amount isRp 5 million per person with a protection period lasting until Dec. 31.

The protection applies to family members from the age of five to 65 years old.  To adhere to health protocols, especially to maintain physical distance, customers can join the AIA 1dapat4 program without having to meet face to face with AIA sales representatives.They can use AIA DigiBuy.

Customers can communicate with sales representatives through video calls. The process will be conducted through the Interactive Point of Sales (iPos) platform for the sales force and the microsite for customers. A video record containing the customer’s approval of the product and the benefits of the insurance to be purchased will be a prerequisite for purchase.

Customers simply need to review all of the supporting documents, and if they agree, they are only required to send a photo of themselves and their ID card and provide their signature on an e-signature form.
