Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture (Menko PMK) Pratikno stated that the flow of homecoming using trains has begun to be felt by H-10 which is influenced by work from anywhere (WFA) policies.

The statement was made when he and the Chief of the Indonesian National Police (Kapolri) General Police Listyo Sigit Prabowo, Minister of Transportation (Menhub) Dudy Purwagandhi, and Minister of Health Budi Gunadi Sadikin checked the Eid Al-Fitr 1446 Hijri/2025 AD homecoming service at Gambir Station, Jakarta, Saturday.

"So, we have received reports that the flow of homecoming using this train has started to be felt on D-10. Apparently, work from anywhere (WFA) has significant implications," he said.

This means that the widespread WFA phenomenon causes travelers to start going to their hometowns from D-10 to peak on Friday (28/3).

In general, PT KAI's services to travelers are considered to have returned. Starting from how online ticket services to record and check passengers, to face recognition that speeds up the check-in process, including purchasing train tickets.

"We express our gratitude to PT Kereta Api Indonesia and the ranks who have worked hard to serve the community," he said.

In addition, the Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture also asked KAI to anticipate backflow by providing better services.

"So, we hope that later the backflow will also be distributed in a few days, so that it doesn't gather on certain days," he said.

Previously, the government had put the WFA policy in the Circular (SE) of the Minister of State Apparatus Empowerment and Bureaucratic Reform (PANRB) Number 2 of 2025. The SE stated that the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) could carry out official duties anywhere from 24-27 March 2025.
