Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency, Syafrin Liputo, admitted that PT Transjakarta has a limited budget in increasing the coverage of transportation services that are integrated with the Jaklingko system.
Therefore, the plan to add 4 Microtrans routes that collaborate with city transportation (angkot) in the North Jakarta area cannot be implemented immediately. This is what makes the DKI Provincial Government considered to give false hope to the driver and owner of these angkots.
"We are adjusting it to the availability of a budget for Microtrans integration to Transjakarta," said Syafrin in the Monas area, Central Jakarta, Friday, May 17.
Syafrin admitted that efforts to collaborate with angkot fleets into a microtrans with routes from JAK111, JAK114, and JAK116, and JAK119 are still in process. However, the realization took place.
"Of course, like this year, of course there will be additions. Not automatically everything is implemented. Transjakarta is being prepared," said Syafrin.
Similarly, the President Director of PT Transjakarta Welfizon Yuza admitted that his party was still discussing the readiness of the angkot integration to join the Jaklingko payment rate system with the DKI Provincial Government. In line with that, Transjakarta is also still preparing rejuvenated vehicles for these angkots.
"The process is a decree (rejuvenation of transportation), then after the decree is issued, the contract process will be with Transjakarta, then vehicle preparation," said Welfizon.

A number of angkot drivers held a demonstration in front of the DKI Jakarta City Hall on Wednesday, May 15. They flocked to bring their city transportation fleets to fill the front road section of the Jakarta Governor Heru Budi Hartono's office.
The drivers and owners of the angkot fleet with routes 03, 05, 09, and 07 of the North Jakarta area expressed their complaints until they felt they were given false hopes by the DKI Provincial Government.
Representative of the Jakut angkot owner, Waridin, admitted that they have been offered to join the Jaklingko tariff system and rejuvenate their fleet to Microtrans since several years ago.
However, until now, the promise to collaborate with angkot on 4 routes to become a Microtrans has not been fulfilled.
What happened was that the DKI Provincial Government instead activated the Transjakarta 10M bus service on the Pulo Gadung - Mayor route in North Jakarta. This route was also demonstrated by the angkot drivers.
"We have this car, not suddenly the governor gave the fleet. We have credit, there is a DP, we are looking here and there. Finally, what happened? Until today, the 4 Jaklingko routes are not running," said Waridin at DKI Jakarta City Hall.
