Danantara CEO Not Yet Willing to Comment on Ride-Hailing Share Purchase
JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - The CEO of the Investment Management Agency (BPI) Danantara, Rosan Perkasa Roeslani, is not yet willing to confirm the purchase of shares in the online motorcycle taxi (ojol) platform Gojek.
Information about the purchase of shares in the ojol platform provider was previously revealed by Deputy Chairman of the Indonesian House of Representatives Sufmi Dasco Ahmad during the commemoration of International Labour Day on Friday (1/5/2026).
Initially, several media crew requested an explanation from Rosan regarding the Waste Processing into Electricity (PSEL) project in Jakarta at the Office of the Coordinating Ministry for Food, Jakarta, on Monday (4/5/2026).
After that, the topic shifted to the issue of purchasing shares in the applicator. Media crew attempted to confirm Dasco’s statement.
“Come on, already,” said Rosan, requesting the doorstep session to end while smiling and walking towards the lift.
Not giving up, the media crew asked how much of Gojek’s shares Danantara had bought.
To the media crew, Rosan said he would explain the share purchase in the future.
“Later, if that’s the case,” Rosan said again with a smile.
Dasco revealed that information during an audience with labour masses holding a May Day commemoration action at the DPR RI Building.
According to Dasco, by becoming a shareholder, the government can be involved in formulating online transportation policies.
“The government through Danantara has entered the applicator, taking a share,” said Dasco at the DPR Building, Jakarta, on Friday.
When met after the audience, Dasco explained that so far Danantara has only bought some of Gojek’s shares.
Currently, he said, the government through Danantara is in the negotiation stage with Grab.
With the same policy, according to him, Danantara can also take over some of Grab’s shares.
“For now it’s still Gojek, Danantara is in the process of talks with Grab,” said Dasco.
