Public Transportation Users in Jakarta Only 32%, Far Different from Singapore and Japan

Dream - Minister of Transportation (Menhub) Budi Karya Sumadi mentioned that the interest of the community in Jakarta to use public transportation is still low. The interest of users is far behind neighboring countries such as Singapore, let alone Japan.

"The use of public transportation in Jakarta is not yet too high," said Budi in Jakarta quoted from Merdeka.com, Thursday, April 18, 2024."

According to Budi, the Provincial Government of DKI Jakarta has actually provided a number of public transportation modes to help support the activities of its residents. Public transportation in the capital city that can be used includes mass rapid transit (MRT), Transjakarta (BRT), and electric train (KRL). "DKI has provided MRT, BRT, there is also LRT, there is KRL," Budi Karya emphasized.

Budi calls on the public to switch to using public transportation that has been built by the government. The use of public transportation in Jakarta is important because it helps to reduce pollution and alleviate traffic congestion in the capital city.

"So I invite you, let's use public transportation so that there won't be any traffic jams and pollution,"
Word Budi.

Then he compared other countries like Singapore and Japan. Indonesia is still far behind Japan and Singapore in the use of public transportation.

Singapore residents who use public transportation reach 60 percent, while Japan reaches 70 percent.

"While developed countries like Singapore and Japan have 60 percent and 70 percent respectively. Surely that becomes our hope,"
"Minister of Transportation Budi said."
