BANDUNG - West Java Governor Dedi Mulyadi in the plenary meeting of the West Java DPRD in Bandung, stated that he would make a provincial road that would be paid for every motor vehicle that passed through West Java.

This, said Dedi, will be created as a substitute for motor vehicle taxes and to create a more equitable tax withdrawal system as electric vehicles are not taxed.

"Yes, this is a concept, the tax for electric vehicles should not be imposed. But there is a thought that if you want to be fair, the motor vehicle tax is abolished, replaced by a toll road, who uses the provincial road pays," said Dedi when met after the plenary session at the West Java DPRD building, Bandung, Monday, May 11.

According to Dedi, this will be more equitable than vehicles that are taxed every year, but never go.

However, Dedi said this would be executed by taking into account that all provincial roads have met the requirements such as toll roads.

"Taking into account all provincial roads are eligible, such as toll roads. The payment system will be digital, no need to be attached like a toll. There is technology, it already exists. In other countries it already exists," he said.

Dedi said that this concept indeed needs to be studied and will be studied soon in 2026 by involving experts and academics, in coordination with the West Java Transportation and Revenue Offices.

"It's called a concept that needs study, this will be studied soon," he said.
