Indonesian presidential electric rickshaw distribution

Overview

Under a presidential assistance program from Prabowo Subianto, the Indonesian government has begun distributing electric rickshaws and tricycles to drivers in various regions to improve livelihoods and reduce physical labor.

In Serang Regency, 190 units were delivered via the Yayasan Gerakan Solidaritas Nasional (YGSN). The assistance prioritizes elderly drivers aged 55 and older, former manual rickshaw drivers, and persons with disabilities. The program also aims to provide alternative transportation in coastal tourism zones like Anyer-Cinangka.

In West Java, the initiative expanded to Cirebon and Indramayu. In Cirebon, 200 units were distributed in a second phase, bringing the local total to 300. Local officials are working to provide social security coverage for these drivers. In Indramayu, 320 electric tricycles were distributed, with the local administration planning to coordinate free battery charging stations at driver gathering points to support the transition.
