Listen to The Message! How Should We Behave in Public in The Time of The Pandemic?

Australia and Indonesia share some problems in encouraging people to behave in the right way in public to combat the spread of COVID-19. Cultural and linguistic diversity and plenty of misinformation on social media create some difficulties in communication. But there are opportunities to get the message across.
