The Directorate General of Land Transportation (Ditjen Hubdat) of the Ministry of Transportation (Kemenhub) supports the use of electric vehicles as public transportation.

Director of Road Transportation of the Directorate General of Hubdat of the Ministry of Transportation Suharto in a statement received in Jakarta, Thursday, said that after the COVID-19 pandemic began to gradually recover, the electric vehicle industry was considered to have grown quite rapidly, especially because it was driven by incentives from the government.

This was revealed at the opening of the ASEAN's International Trade Fair for Automotive, Electric Vehicle, Logistics, & Mining Solutions which was held at JIExpo Kemayoran Jakarta, Wednesday, May 24.

"What is very related to us (Kemenhub), namely the automotive and electric vehicle. The automotive dynamics is extraordinary and currently the regulation (electric vehicle) already exists through Presidential Regulation 55 of 2019 to discuss how later we will use environmentally friendly vehicles based on electrification so that the Ministry of Transportation always supports and encourages the use of electric vehicles," Suharto said, quoted from Antara.

Currently, said Suharto, the Ministry of Transportation already has a roadmap, where in 2030 public transportation in several cities, especially those carried out with the buy the service scheme, will be designated as a pilot project that must use electric-based public transportation.

After the use of electric vehicles in pilot cities for the buy the service program, then in 2045 all public transportation in Indonesia will use electric vehicles.

"Not only related to electric vehicles, currently logistics vehicles are still our task and homework (homework). What we are currently pushing is how to become a single logistics system, a ticket system, as well as an administrative system," said Suharto.

The Ministry of Transportation noted that currently, some components of logistics costs come from the transportation sector so that if there are obstacles in transportation, it can lead to an increase in logistics costs.

In addition, the Ministry of Transportation said that transportation of goods transportation using road transportation is still the most dominant in the logistics system in Indonesia.

Therefore, a multimodal policy strategy and a transfer of mode is needed as a step to improve logistics governance and the implementation of effective and efficient and integrated supply chains.

"We ask for support and input from associations on several policies, perhaps some that are deemed inappropriate so that we can make adjustments and grow a more conducive climate related to logistics," Suharto said.

The Ministry of Transportation explained that the implementation of multimodal transportation aims to realize one-stop service services on goods transportation, with indicators of single seamless services (S3), namely single operators, single tariffs, and single documents for goods transportation.

This is in line with the government's efforts to organize a logistics system through the implementation of the National Logistics Ecosystem (NLE) which integrates the flow of goods with international documents in a digital platform for logistics services from upstream (ship arrivals/aircraft) to downstream ( warehousing) with collaboration between ministries/agencies and logistics actors.

To support the increase in the investment climate in transportation and logistics, the government continues to strive to simplify the business licensing process and legal certainty for transportation and logistics business actors.

Suharto stated that there is a need for synergy collaboration between the government and transportation and logistics service business actors and logistics service users as an effort to improve the logistics system in Indonesia.
