Waskita Karya Transports Hundreds of Commuters in the Joint SOE Homecoming Programme
PT Waskita Karya (Persero) Tbk has once again organised the Mudik Bersama BUMN programme for 2026. In this free homecoming activity initiated by the SOE Regulatory Agency (BP BUMN) and the Danantara Nusantara Future Investment Management Agency (BPI Danantara), the company transported nearly 300 homecomers to Solo, Semarang, Yogyakarta, Malang, and Surabaya.
Waskita Karya’s Corporate Secretary, Ermy Puspa Yunita, stated that the homecomers—comprising Waskita Karya employees, subsidiaries, employees’ families, and the general public—were transported using six bus modes of transport.
Five buses were departed from the Waskita Karya Building in Jakarta. Meanwhile, another bus was departed directly by the Coordinating Minister for Infrastructure and Regional Development, Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono, along with the Chief Operating Officer of BPI Danantara and Head of BP BUMN, Dony Oskaria, together with around 66 other SOEs at Gelora Bung Karno (GBK) in Jakarta.
This year’s Mudik BUMN carries the theme ‘Mudik Nyaman Bersama’.
‘For Waskita, organising this free homecoming is not merely fulfilling an obligation, but also as an appreciation to Waskita’s people and the entire community that continues to support Waskita. We hope they can experience a safe and comfortable homecoming journey until they reach their destination,’ Ermy said in an official statement on Thursday (19/3/2026).
Through this activity, she said, the company hopes to assist and alleviate the burden on the community who wish to carry out the homecoming tradition or return to their hometowns but are constrained by costs or difficulties in finding tickets. Mudik Bersama BUMN also aims to minimise risks during the journey.
‘This joint homecoming agenda departs from the high statistics of homecomers using motorcycles, which have the highest vulnerability compared to vehicles like buses. We also hope that Mudik Bersama BUMN will reduce the use of private vehicles to reduce carbon emissions from the transportation sector,’ she added.
Not only providing buses, Waskita also equipped the homecomers with provisions during the journey and medicines. The company ensures that the community participating in this free homecoming remains healthy and safe until they reach their destination.
‘This activity is a concrete manifestation of the company’s commitment to implementing the principles of Social and Environmental Responsibility (TJSL) while encouraging sustainable economic practices in Indonesia. Waskita hopes that next year it can transport even more homecomers,’ Ermy stated.
