The Indonesian government plans to provide 5 million IDR subsidies for 100,000 electric motorcycles to reduce fuel consumption and carbon emissions. However, critics argue that funding private vehicle ownership fails to address the root causes of urban congestion and mobility. Experts suggest that redirecting these funds toward public transportation networks would be more efficient. Investing in mass transit corridors could lower household expenses and reduce the number of road accidents more effectively than shifting from gas motorcycles to electric ones.
