JAKARTA - A number of fast boats belonging to the DKI Jakarta Transportation Service (Dishub) are still not operating from the Muara Angke Port, Penjaringan District, North Jakarta, to a number of islands in the Thousand Islands Regency on Wednesday, January 14, 2026.
"The weather is still not conducive. Our ship is detained in the port," said Head of the Water Transportation Management Unit (UPAP) of the DKI Jakarta Sub-district Office, Muhamad Wildan Anwar, when confirmed by VOI.
The termination of the operation of the Dishub fast boat is estimated to last until this week. The DKI Jakarta Dishub UPAP has stopped operating the fast boat since Monday, January 12, 2026.
"Maybe until this week," he said.
Wildan said that this step was taken as an effort to anticipate minimizing the risk of accidents at sea. This policy was taken because of the bad weather conditions characterized by high rainfall and sea waves that could potentially endanger shipping safety.
The decision, he continued, refers to weather data from the Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) and the issuance of a sailing permit by the Muara Angke Port Authority (KSOP).
"Passenger safety is the top priority," he said.
Wildan added, based on information from BMKG and field monitoring results, the current water conditions do not allow fast boat sailing to the Thousand Islands.
"We have communicated this to prospective passengers," he said.
The routes of the DKI Jakarta Dishub fast boat that are temporarily not operating include:
Muara Angke - Untung Java Island - Lancang Island - Payung Island - Tidung Island.
Muara Angke - Untung Java Island - Pari Island - Panggang Island - Pramuka Island.
Muara Angke–Pulau Pari–Pulau Pramuka–Pulau Kelapa.
Muara Angke–Pulau Kelapa–Pulau Sabira.
"We continue to coordinate intensively with KSOP Muara Angke regarding weather developments and shipping safety," he said.
Previously reported, bad weather accompanied by heavy rainfall on Monday, January 12, 2026, had an impact on the cancellation of the operation of the crossing ship owned by the DKI Jakarta Office in Muara Angke, North Jakarta.
"We canceled the voyage of the Dishub ship today. The voyage is not allowed by the KSOP," said Wildan Anwar when confirmed, Monday, January 12, 2026.
