Use google to translate if required. Important quote "For domestic and foreign travelers who have received a complete dose of vaccination, there is no need to carry out PCR or antigen swab tests anymore," concluded the President."

I would probably wait for the official regulation to ensure there are no major caveats...

Usually regulations are posted officially here in Bahasa Indonesia, https://covid19.go.id/p/regulasi
