Jakarta Governor, Basuki T Purnama revealed, his party will not prohibit ojek (motorcycle taxi) in the capital. Even, its existence will become feeder transport service to other public transports.
Ojek is allowed to operate, as long as they obey the procedures
"Ojek is allowed to operate, as long as they obey the procedures," Basuki stated, in Jakarta City Council (DPRD), Saturday (12/19).
But for main and protocol roads, in future, he will prohibit motorcycle to pass. They only operate on small roads, considering the trial was been tested on Jalan MH Thamrin, Jalan Medan Merdeka Barat, until Harmoni.

Previously, there was a ban on ojek operational from Transportation Ministry. But, it has been revoked.
