BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

The focus is on foreign travelers: the chosen human story highlights a French tourist rather than a local Indonesian passenger.

« French national Eloan Tasset, 21, got a text from Batik Air that his flight to his holiday destination of Manado in North Sulawesi had been delayed, but he said it was unclear how long the delay would be. »

Reliance on official Indonesian figures: the tally of affected passengers comes solely from the Ministry of Transportation, without independent verification.

« The transport ministry said 170,000 people have been affected by flight cancellations. »
