ARTA – The policy of the governor of Jakarta, Pramono Anung, which requires that civilian civilian devices (ASN) carry out public transport once a week has received a positive response. But this policy should be extended so that efforts to reduce congestion and pollution in Jakarta are optimal.
Real which requires that all ASNs of the provincial government of Dki Jakarta (PEMPROVICT) use public transport have been valid since April 30, 2025. This is regulated in the investigation of the governor of DKI JAKARTA n ° 6 of 2025.
Politics was also confirmed by the spokesman for Dki Jakarta Governor Tunko Hakim, revealing that the rule had entered into force since the signing of Pramono.
“On April 23, 2025, the Governor signed the Inclux on the use of public transport for employees of the provincial government of Jakarta,” said Chirko.
Pramono said this policy was part of the efforts to overcome congestion in Jakarta and improve habits for public transport. He also said that public transport networks in Jakarta had been integrated up to 91%.
Renal, the types of public transport referred to in the number 6 of 2025 include Transjakarta, MRT, LRT Jakarta and Jabodebek, the KRL telecommunications line, airport trains, buses and regular municipalities, cruising ships and vehicles between hires.
In addition, ASN is also authorized to use other modes of transport such as the online motorcycle taxi when the final location is not reached.
Dki Jakarta is not the first time. The same thing happened when Jakarta was led by Joko Widodo in 2012.
this Friday was chosen as a compulsory day for ASN to use public transport, but this policy does not continue.
Then in 2017 the Governor of Basuki Tjahaya Purnama alias Ahok, there was also efforts to reduce the use of private motor vehicles and transform into the use of public transport.
In at that time, there was a bicycle ban through Jalan Jenderal Sudirman and Jalan Thamrin. As an alternative, it is provided by free buses of the Senayan roundabout in Harmoni. But this policy will not last long either, because it is only done in the form of instructions from the governor, no rules.
This policy of banning motorcycles has a positive impact. The DKI Jakarta transport office in 2017 recorded a decrease in vehicle volume by 22.4%, increasing the speed of vehicles by 26.3 km / h initial to 30.9 km / h, and traffic time increased by 15%.
-Usually from ASN to the obligation to use public transport has also occurred in the city of Palembang, when the LRT of South Sumatra has worked since the time of Governor Alex Nurdin. But again, there is no seriousness and coordination between the provincial government of South Sumatra and the government of the city of Palembang, so that this policy does not take long.
Knowing if the policy of use of public transport for the ASN of the provincial government DKI Jakarta once a week will effectively reduce congestion of the capital is still a question of many parties.
Djoko Setijowarno Center for Public Transport Relations Development Area (MTI) responded positively to the measures taken by the provincial government of Jakarta under Governor Pramono Anung. This, said Djoko, complies with the strategy of repression and Pollyang generally applied in major cities of the world.
Strategic reserve is to limit the use of private vehicles, while improving the attraction of public transport. The objective is to encourage the public to move from the use of private vehicles to public transport.
Djoko, however, estimated that this policy will have no significant impact on congestion in Jakarta. Because those who activate Jakarta are not only ASN in the DKI provincial government. As a city with a very large number of inhabitants and a large number of daily activities, Jakarta needs the support of the central government.
“If only 65,000 ASN of the provincial government of Jakarta use public transport every Wednesday, that will not change the pace of traffic jams in Jakarta,” said Djoko in a statement received by VOI.
however, this policy should have a greater impact in reducing the use of private vehicles and the increase in the number of public transport users if it is applied by more institutions and ministries. Djoko also said, overcoming congestion in Jalarta, not only can the Jakarta provincial government work alone, but requires the support of the central government.
Al.com. “If it is implemented in a coherent and extended manner to the ASN of ministries and institutions, this will become a trigger for a new culture. There is still a central government policy that can be applied in the city of Jakarta to help reduce congestion and reduce air pollution, “added Djoko.
Anyway, there are obstacles in this policy. Currently, said Djoko, the coverage of public transport in the city of Jakarta reached 90%. One of indicators, each spell of the residence, not up to 500 meters, can already find public transport.
However, for people outside of Jakarta and working in the capital, this policy will experience obstacles between the compensation for non -separative public transport services in Jakarta. Therefore, he encouraged the expansion of Transjabodetabek services to welcome Asn living outside Jakarta.
Al.com “with the expansion of the Transjabodetabek service in the Jakarta support area, policy efforts to regulate Jakarta’s transport will be of great help,” concluded Djoko.
