JAKARTA - The manager of the Kampung Rambutan Terminal, East Jakarta, said that there had not been a surge in back and forth passengers until the second week of Ramadan 1443 Hijri.

Head of Kampung Rambutan Terminal, Yulza Ramadhoni, said that since the beginning of Ramadan until now, only 300 passengers on the intercity interprovincial bus (AKAP) have departed.

"On April 14, only 364 passengers departed," said Yulza, quoted by Antara, Saturday, April 16.

Yulza added that the majority of passengers who took the AKAP bus from the Kampung Rambutan Terminal wanted to go to a number of areas such as East Java, Central Java and Sumatra.

"The average passenger is dominated by long distances, to East Java, Central Java and Sumatra," said Yulza.

Yulza estimates that the surge in homecoming passengers at the Kampung Rambutan Terminal will occur in the last week of Ramadan or D-7 before Lebaran.

"It is possible that during the last week of Ramadan, there will be an increase in passenger movements who will go to their respective hometowns," said Yulza.
