        "summary": "National activist Sandri Rumanama urges Danantara to establish a state-owned enterprise for digital transport, arguing that the government's current 8% stake in GoTo requires a more strategic approach beyond shareholding. He highlights the sector's potential as an integrated ecosystem of transport, logistics, and digital finance, and stresses the need for government-led management to maximise economic benefits and support app-based drivers.",
        "content": "<p>National activist Sandri Rumanama believes the government\u2019s move\nthrough the Investment Management Agency (BPI) Danantara to acquire a\nstake in PT GoTo Gojek Tokopedia Tbk should be accompanied by a broader\nbusiness strategy beyond mere investment.<\/p>\n<p>According to Sandri, the government should capitalise on this\nmomentum to establish or prepare a state-owned enterprise (SOE) focused\non managing two- and four-wheeled digital transport.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018While the 8% stake may be small, Danantara should already be\nbusiness-savvy. The digital transport business model is highly promising\nand must be maximised. At the very least, there should be an SOE\nmanaging digital two- and four-wheeled transport,\u2019 Sandri stated in a\ncomment.<\/p>\n<p>The government was previously reported to have taken a stake in GoTo\nvia Danantara. This move is seen as part of efforts to push for a policy\ncapping ride-hailing app commissions at a maximum of 8% to improve\ndriver partners\u2019 welfare.<\/p>\n<p>Sandri argues that government involvement in the digital transport\nsector should not stop at shareholding. He believes the state needs to\ntake a larger role in managing the rapidly growing business amid the\ndigital economic transformation.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that two- and four-wheeled transport businesses have\nevolved into an ecosystem connecting transportation, logistics,\nautomotive, and digital financial services.<\/p>\n<p>According to Sandri, the business models of companies like Gojek and\nGrab show the sector has significant and sustainable economic\npotential.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018This is a promising business. Danantara should not merely purchase\nshares but also have government-led management. Perhaps a holding\nstructure under existing SOEs like DAMRI or a new SOE,\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n<p>He believes establishing a state entity in the digital transport\nsector could strengthen Indonesia\u2019s position in the growing digital\neconomy industry. Furthermore, the move could generate economic value\nand expand benefits for the public and app-based transport\noperators.<\/p>",
