Dream - The tariff scheme for KRL Commuterline for the economically capable and less capable groups will be separated through card tickets. This plan is called an effort to distribute subsidies accurately.

Transportation observer, Djoko Setijowarno, explained that KRL customers can propose to PT Kereta Commuter Indonesia (KCI) to get subsidized ticket access if their salary is below Rp5 million. The selection of capable and incapable customers is done proactively by KRL customers. 

"Later, the proposal will be proactive. So those who propose if their salary is below Rp5 million," said Djoko, quoted from merdeka.com, Friday, December 30, 2022.

KRL customers with incomes below Rp5 million can use a recommendation letter from the company or a letter from the neighborhood head where the KRL customer resides.

This data will be verified first because it is connected to the Integrated Social Welfare Data (DTKS).

"Making proposals with someone who knows, whether it's the head of the office or the neighborhood head, is allowed," he added.

 

Djoko realizes that this method is vulnerable to manipulation. However, he emphasized that the government will frequently conduct surprise inspections and impose heavy sanctions on those who lie.

"Someone else may use the card, but if it is discovered during an inspection, they will be caught and given a high fine as a deterrent," he said.

Meanwhile, for incidental KRL passengers, a special tariff will be implemented. However, this is still under discussion.

"That's the idea, it hasn't been implemented yet, later there will be a database using DTKS. Moreover, now we have a good e-KTP system," he said.
