JAKARTA - Curhatan online ojek riders, especially Gojek, are busy being discussed on the Twitter social media universe. Lack of orders due to changes in the Gojek system, it is very burdensome for the job of motorcycle taxi drivers.

Through the hashtag #Gojekkenapa, Gojek drivers share their remarks that they can no longer meet their daily income targets. Not infrequently they have to work late into the night.

Gojek also answered the drivers' complaints. It was explained that Gojek had never implemented the rumored priority account system, which left drivers with fewer orders or anyep.

"We need to straighten out that there is no priority account or order distribution system at Gojek. The Gojek system ensures that all driver partners have the opportunity to complete orders from consumers with the fastest possibility," said Gojek Senior Manager Corporate Affairs, Teuku Parvinanda in a written statement, Monday 24. February.

Teuku also appealed to Gojek drivers not to sort, skip or cancel incoming orders. Because it will affect the system assessment to the Gojek Partner account.

"Our system considers several things, including the intensity and activity of consumers, the history of order completion from driver partners and consumers, as well as the radius or distance," he continued.

He added that Gojek has never limited its partners to get orders anywhere and anytime. Likewise with certain areas in order to get a lot of passengers. Gojek also promised to evaluate the order allocation system that is currently in effect, so that it can be even better in the future.

However, the drivers were absurdly disappointed with the distribution system with the distribution of orders. The motorbike taxi driver also plans to hold a demonstration at the House of Representatives, on Friday, February 28.

"Demand the competent authorities to legalize the two-wheeled mode of transportation as a special limited transportation," wrote the coalition of online motorcycle taxi drivers in a written statement.

They demanded that 2020 be the ideal year for the struggle for online motorcycle taxis throughout Indonesia. This ojol driver also asked the government to revise Law no. 22 of 2009 concerning Road Traffic and Transportation (LLAJ Law).

Regarding this action, motorcycle taxi drivers want to have a dialogue with representatives of the DPR Commission V so that they can provide real solutions for the sustainability of the lives of many people, especially online motorcycle taxi driver partners.
