Cabinet Secretary Teddy Inspects Return Flow at Pulo Gebang, Photos Bring Joy to Commuters

Cabinet Secretary (Seskab) Teddy Indra Wijaya monitored the peak Eid return flow on 24-25 March 2026 to ensure everything proceeded safely, smoothly, and comfortably through synergy among ministries and agencies.

According to a statement received in Jakarta on Wednesday (25/6/2026), Seskab Teddy Indra Wijaya, together with Minister of Transportation Dudy Purwagandhi, directly inspected the peak Eid return flow for 2026 at Pulo Gebang Integrated Terminal, Cakung, Jakarta, in the early hours of Wednesday.

“At 1 a.m., I was invited by the Minister of Transportation to check the peak return flow at Pulo Gebang Terminal. Alhamdulillah, after directly asking passengers on the buses, they said the journey was smooth and comfortable. I also greeted them, shook hands, and took a few photos to make the commuters happy,” said Seskab Teddy, as quoted from the official upload of the Cabinet Secretariat.

The smoothness of the peak return flow on 24-25 March, he explained, was in line with the hopes of President Prabowo and the Indonesian people. For this year’s Eid, the government continuously strives to ensure that the organisation of the homecoming and return flows runs better than the previous year, which also went very well.

These efforts are supported by strong synergy from various parties in managing the high mobility of the public during the Eid period. “Of course, this is supported by strong synergy between the Ministry of Transportation, the Police, local governments, and all related agencies in managing the high mobility of the public,” he explained.

Not only that, the government has prepared several anticipatory steps to face the potential second wave of return flow expected on 28-29 March ahead.

These steps include the implementation of traffic engineering such as situational one-way roads, rest area arrangements, restrictions on goods transport vehicles, as well as several policies for toll discounts and thousands of free homecoming buses that can be utilised by the public.

These measures affirm the presence of the state in ensuring that the public’s journeys proceed safely and comfortably until they reach their destinations.

Through thorough planning, solid coordination, and quick responses on the ground, the government is committed to keeping the momentum of the 2026 Eid return flow under control and providing peace of mind for the public returning to their activities.
