Q: How a company in Jamaica can send my salary in Indonesia?

When working remotely for a corporation in Jamaica , you salary can be send to Indonesia but I do not know where it is. I have worked remotely for a few years and have never received my salary in another country. The only time I have received a foreign currency, it was in the US. It's possible that your company could send it to you, but they will have to deal with the foreign exchange rates, etc. Your best bet is to ask your company if they do it and if not, ask them for a suggestion for another company that does. I don't know if your company is the one that is sending your salary, but I'm pretty sure that they'll know what the exchange rate is in your currency. They'll just have to convert it to the local currency and send it to you.
