The stone and sand miners (well, it is not mining actually but collecting) usually collect stone and sand in the narrow rivers. The miners will get about IDR 100.000 to IDR200.000 to fill up a truck. To fill up one truck, they work in a group of 2 to 4 people where they can fill up about 5 trucks in a day.
