JAKARTA - The implementation of the ticket for vehicles that do not pass the emission test is again valid tomorrow, Wednesday, November 1. Until the end of this year, the DKI Provincial Government together with the Metro Police will carry out emission test raids 51 times and spread over a number of points in 5 DKI Jakarta areas.
Head of the DKI Jakarta Environmental Agency, Asep Kuswanto, emphasized that the ticket for the emission test was effective to improve air quality.
"This is very effective. The results of our study with NGO International Vital Strategies show that the intervention of emission sources from moving sources of the largest benefit comes from emission testing," Asep said in his statement, Tuesday, October 31.
From the results of this evaluation, Asep views that emission test raids need to continue. The planning of the emission test ticket mechanism tomorrow has been refined by the implementation of the ticket that was carried out last September.
"We have involved various parties to conduct evaluations, the result is that this emission test raid is resumed with several improvements in its implementation," said Asep.
Furthermore, Asep reminded all people who are mobility to use private vehicles in the DKI Jakarta area to immediately conduct emission tests on their vehicles, both two-wheeled and four-wheeled.
"Immediate emission test, because the emission test raid now has a wider reach, we have been socializing it long ago. This step is for air pollution control," said Asep.

Initially, the emission test ticket had been running since September 1, 2023. However, the implementation was only carried out in the first week and the Metro Police decided to stop it.
Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency, Syafrin Liputo, admitted that the emission test ticket had been temporarily suspended to provide opportunities for the public to undergo emission tests in order to control air pollution in Jakarta.
Based on data up to October 6, 2023, it was recorded that 1,120,672 four-wheeled vehicles and 119,792 two-wheeled vehicles had carried out emission tests. From the addition of the number of vehicles tested for emissions, Syafrin said that the emission test ticket had been effectively carried out.
"The consideration is that socialization has been massive, free emission tests have also been massive, and there has been a significant increase in the number of tested vehicles," said Syafrin.
"This means that as a whole the community is aware of carrying out emission tests. So that when we do the fine, the population will fully carry out emission tests," he continued.
