Fuel Price Hike, KRL Passengers Increasing Significantly

Meanwhile, Transjakarta bus tariff is still the same by Rp 3,500 since the Public Service Obligation is given by Jakarta Provincial Government. In addition, Transjakarta bus has nothing relation with the fuel hike because it uses gas fuel (BBG).
