Pelindo Group Launches Joint Mudik Programme with State-Owned Enterprises 2026
Pelindo Group has launched participants for the Joint Mudik Programme with State-Owned Enterprises 2026, with the theme “Safe Homecoming, Shared Hope”, to help communities return to their hometowns for Eid al-Fitr 1447 Hijrah with safe and comfortable travel.
The programme forms part of Pelindo Group’s commitment to facilitating communities, particularly migrant workers, to return to their home regions without bearing the burden of increased travel costs approaching Eid al-Fitr.
Senior Vice President of Corporate Secretariat at PT Pelindo Sinergi Lokaseva, Dewi Fitriyani, stated that the company’s participation in the programme represents corporate concern for society.
“Through the Joint Mudik Programme with State-Owned Enterprises and Pelindo Group in 2026, we wish to help migrant workers return to their hometowns with safe and comfortable travel,” she said.
The Pelindo Group joint mudik programme this year serves numerous travel routes, including Jakarta-Solo, Jakarta-Surabaya, Jakarta-Semarang, Jakarta-Yogyakarta, Jakarta-Purwokerto, Surabaya-Madiun, Surabaya-Trenggalek, Surabaya-Jember, Makassar-Palopo, Makassar-Soroako, Medan-Aceh, Medan-Pekanbaru, and Medan-Padang.
Specifically, PT Pelindo Sinergi Lokaseva is dispatching mudik participants on the Jakarta-Solo route.
All vehicles used in the programme have undergone vehicle roadworthiness inspection and are assured to meet safety standards. Drivers have also undergone competency verification and health checks to ensure safe and orderly travel.
Dewi added that the company continues to coordinate with various parties to ensure the departure process runs in accordance with procedure.
“We want to ensure all participants can depart peacefully and arrive at their hometowns safely. Safety and comfort remain our top priority in implementing this programme,” she said.
One mudik participant heading to Solo, Setya Budi (57), acknowledged that the programme greatly helps communities who wish to return home approaching Eid al-Fitr.
“This programme greatly helps us who want to return home without having to worry about travel costs that are quite substantial approaching Eid al-Fitr,” he said.
Through this programme, Pelindo Group hopes to provide benefits to the community whilst supporting safer, more orderly, and more comfortable homecoming travel so that mudik participants can arrive at their hometowns safely and celebrate Eid al-Fitr with family.
Bank Jakarta has resumed its support for the Free Eid Mudik Programme in 2026, which is implemented by the Transportation Office of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government.
Central Java Governor Ahmad Luthfi dispatched 325 bus fleets carrying tens of thousands of mudik participants from Jabodetabek to 35 districts/cities in Central Java.
Buses were dispatched to a gathering point for free mudik departures at TMII Jakarta. The free music buses will arrive in Klaten on 17 March 2026.
A total of 250 free mudik participants were dispatched using six bus units heading to various cities in four provinces on Java Island.
Thirteen units of public electric vehicle charging stations were provided at Rest Area Km 575 B and 14 units at Rest Area KM 575 A, operating 24 hours.
Tidal surge (rob) with a height of one metre at 16.00-20.00 WIB continues in northern waters, so flooding impact in several North Coast areas could disrupt mudik.
Central Java Governor Ahmad Luthfi ensured that all regional heads in Central Java are prepared to receive migrant workers returning to their hometowns.
