'Bemo' treatment unfair

'Bemo' treatment unfair

From Bisnis Indonesia

It is good that the government is going to abolish outdated bemo vehicles and replace them with a new form of public transportation. However, how can the government justify giving only Rp 500,000 in compensation money to each bemo driver for his vehicle when the market price is Rp 6 million? What is going to happen to the unused bemo and, more importantly, to the bemo drivers?
