Cak Imin States WFH Effective in Reducing Fuel Consumption

Coordinating Minister for Community Empowerment (Menko PM) Muhaimin Iskandar, or Cak Imin, has revealed the results of his monitoring of work from home (WFH) implementation in several government centres. Cak Imin stated that WFH is effective in reducing fuel consumption. “Yes, earlier I monitored WFH in government centres, and indeed the traffic is smooth, with no build-ups or congestion that consumes large amounts of fuel. This means WFH is effective in reducing fuel consumption,” Cak Imin told reporters at the PKB DPP office in Central Jakarta on Friday (10/4/2026). Cak Imin noted that control over the productivity levels of employees or civil servants (ASN) must continue to be carried out. This, he said, is necessary to ensure that the productivity of employees remains maintained. “Now, for the WFH that has been decided, the question is how to control productivity so that employees and all parties opting for WFH maintain their productivity,” he said. Cak Imin then emphasised that there is no WFH for employees and ASN working in public services. They must continue working according to public needs. “For employees or ASN in public services, there is no WFH; they must work according to public service requirements,” he said.
