Officially there are only a couple of public holidays - but it is the time of year when many Indonesians take their annual holidays. So if you think of it like trying to get a tradesman at home anywhere between mid December to end of January and it's a bit like that. Even if a tailor is open, many of their staff may be on holidays, so jobs will take longer.
