In Indonesia, minimum wage is around USD 1500 annually, and not everyone gets that. Fresh grads in white-collar jobs might get maybe USD 3000 per year, or USD 5000 in the capital. If you make 5 digits you're doing well, like USD 25k per annum for a data scientist or 60k for a head of IT (those would be exceptional top jobs there, mind you). [1]
So, for the median individual in Indonesia it's several decades worth of salary, and it will help the affected families a lot. I assume that the situation in Ethiopia is not too different.
