My taxi: Siti's only way to earn a living
Siti drives for a living in Makassar, and a broken suspension has stopped all income for 12 weeks.

I make my living with my taxi. 12 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $205. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my family of five. Before the breakdown I worked nine hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $205 goes:
• suspension replacement (parts): $125
• Labor charges: $20
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $55
• Towing and inspection: $5
