JAKARTA - Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, accompanied by Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives Sari Yuliati and Cucun Ahmad Syamsurijal, led a cross-ministerial and agency coordination meeting at the Nusantara III Building, House of Representatives, Thursday (23/7), to discuss the follow-up to the preparation of the Presidential Regulation (Perpres) regarding the online motorcycle taxi (ojol) ecosystem.
The meeting was a step to align policies between ministries so that the regulations being drafted are able to provide legal certainty, strengthen protection for driver partners, and maintain the sustainability of the application-based transportation ecosystem.
The discussion focused on a number of strategic issues, ranging from strengthening protection for driver partners, certainty of partnership relations between application companies and drivers, business climate sustainability, to cross-ministerial coordination in policy implementation. The regulation is expected to be able to provide certainty for all parties involved in the online transportation ecosystem.
The meeting was attended by the Minister of State Secretary Prasetyo Hadi, Minister of Transportation Dudy Purwagandhi, Minister of Manpower Yassierli, Minister of MSME Maman Abdurrahman, Minister of Home Affairs Tito Karnavian, Minister of Law Supratman Andi Agtas, COO Danantara and Head of the State-Owned Enterprise Regulation Agency Dony Oskaria, Deputy Minister of Law Eddy Hiariej, Deputy Minister of State Secretary Bambang Eko Suhariyanto, and Deputy Minister of Communication and Digital Nezar Patria.
Dasco explained that this follow-up coordination meeting was held in order to improve the ojol Presidential Decree, which is now almost final. He said that the Presidential Decree is targeted to be issued next week, after a finalization meeting with the association or National Ojol Coalition.
On that occasion, the government also received input from the National Ojol Coalition regarding the implementation of the 92 percent tariff sharing for drivers and 8 percent for applicators, which includes an evaluation of the implementation of the tariff scheme in the field as material for improving the Presidential Regulation.
In line with this, the Minister of State Secretary Prasetyo Hadi emphasized the President's direction that the 92 percent tariff sharing scheme for drivers and 8 percent for applicators be implemented in the field.
The National Ojol Coalition said that the scheme had been implemented since July 1, 2026, although there were still a number of applicators who needed to improve their discipline in implementing the provisions. Evaluation of implementation in the field is also a note in the process of refining regulations.
Meanwhile, Minister of Transportation Dudy Purwagandhi explained that the Ministry of Transportation continued to focus on regulating the tariff of transportation services based on applications, including the mechanism for sharing revenue between drivers and application companies. The technical provisions regarding the tariff have been followed up through the Minister of Transportation's Decree.
The National Ojol Coalition also conveyed that a number of policies in practice have been running in the field even though the Presidential Regulation has not been issued, although there are still a number of implementation issues that need to be improved. These aspirations are expected to enrich the substance of the Presidential Regulation so that the regulation can be completed soon.
Previously, the Minister of MSME Maman Abdurrahman said that the preparation of the Presidential Decree had entered the finalization stage. One of the substances discussed was the recognition of online motorcycle taxi drivers as part of micro-entrepreneurs so that they have wider access to various empowerment and business strengthening programs.
"It's already working. But the Perpres is being worked on, it's being finalized. I think it's just a matter of waiting for the news," said Maman after a coordination meeting with the Ministry of Transportation, the Ministry of Communication and Digital, the Ministry of Manpower, and online transportation application companies, Tuesday (21/7).
According to Maman, the Presidential Decree will become a legal umbrella for regulating the online transportation ecosystem, including clarifying the division of tasks and authorities between ministries in its implementation.
Through this cross-ministerial coordination, the government and the DPR are trying to ensure that the regulations drafted are able to answer the needs of driver partners, create certainty in business, and present a more just, sustainable online transportation ecosystem that provides benefits for the community.
