        "summary": "The Garda Indonesia online motorcycle taxi association has called on the government to guarantee that a new regulation mandating a minimum 92 percent income share for drivers is implemented in practice. The association welcomed Presidential Regulation No. 27\/2026 as a milestone for legal certainty and welfare, noting that previous platform deductions ranged from 20 to nearly 50 percent. They also pledged to monitor compliance and report any violations to the relevant ministries.",
        "content": "<p>The Garda Indonesia Online Motorcycle Taxi Drivers Association has\nurged the government to ensure that the provision for a minimum income\nshare of 92 percent for online motorcycle taxi (ojol) drivers is\ngenuinely received by drivers in practice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe hope that Presidential Regulation (Perpres) Number 27 of 2026 can\ndeliver increased income and protection for online motorcycle taxi\ndrivers,\u201d said Garda Indonesia Chairman Raden Igun Wicaksono at a press\nconference in Tebet, South Jakarta, on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>He said Perpres Number 27 of 2026 on the Protection of Online\nTransport Workers represents an important milestone for legal certainty\nand improved welfare for ojol drivers.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, prior to Perpres 27\/2026, the deductions taken from\ndrivers by app companies ranged from 20 percent to nearly 50\npercent.<\/p>\n<p>With the maximum deduction set at eight percent, Igun said, drivers\nnormatively receive a larger share of income.<\/p>\n<p>He gave the example of a journey fare of Rp20,000, where an eight\npercent deduction equals Rp1,600, leaving Rp18,400 as the driver\u2019s\nentitlement.<\/p>\n<p>However, Igun stressed that driver welfare cannot be measured solely\nby the percentage of income distribution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want to ensure that eight percent is truly eight percent, and 92\npercent is truly 92 percent in the actual transactions received by\ndrivers,\u201d Igun said.<\/p>\n<p>Garda Indonesia stated it will monitor the implementation of the\nPerpres. If it finds app operators that fail to comply with the\nprovisions, the association will report them to the relevant technical\nministry or agency so that a warning or sanction can be issued.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Igun also welcomed the recognition of ojol drivers\nas part of the micro business sector within the micro, small and medium\nenterprises (MSME) ecosystem. This status is expected to strengthen\ndrivers\u2019 bargaining position in their relationship with app\ncompanies.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, protection for drivers is also expected to be\nstrengthened in the future through higher-level regulation so that\ncertainty of rights and driver welfare is increasingly guaranteed.<\/p>\n<p>The Garda Indonesia Online Motorcycle Taxi Drivers Association\nresponded positively and enthusiastically to the statement by President\nof the Republic of Indonesia Prabowo Subianto, who said that following\nthe implementation of the new policy on online transport income\ndistribution, some drivers have experienced significant income\nincreases, even reaching two to three times their previous earnings.<\/p>\n<p>The statement was delivered directly by President Prabowo in the\nState Address of the President of the Republic of Indonesia on\nFriday.<\/p>\n<p>The President said that previously, drivers received around 80\npercent of journey income, whereas under the new policy, the driver\u2019s\nshare becomes 92 percent, with a maximum of 8 percent for the app\noperator.<\/p>",
