The Indonesian government is preparing a series of transportation fare subsidies aimed at stimulating economic growth in the second half of 2026, according to Bakom head Muhammad Qodari. The stimulus will be implemented during school holidays and the Nataru period – a combined term for Christmas and New Year – peak travel times. Qodari indicated the measures are designed to encourage economic activity. Details regarding the scale and specific implementation of the subsidies were not immediately available. The government anticipates increased travel demand during these periods will benefit various sectors. This initiative represents a proactive approach to bolstering the economy through targeted support for transportation affordability.
