“We will express our aspirations to the House of Representatives in the next two weeks. I hope the House can take action to evaluate Go-Jek Indonesia practices,” Choky Panggabean, the association’s team leader, said.

The group, which claims to have more than 100 members in Greater Jakarta, said Go-Jek had altered its electronic partnership agreement as of June without disseminating information about the changes to its drivers, known as their “partners”.

“We were forced to click ‘yes’ even before we were able to check the content of the partnership agreement, or else our accounts would have been suspended,” he said.

G99 chairman Fitrijansjah Toisutta said nothing had changed following a Go-Jek drivers' protest in front of the company’s office in Kemang Selatan earlier this month.  

Instead, the company now requires its drivers to collect 18 points, an increase from 14 points, making it harder for drivers to qualify for bonuses, he said.

Go-Jek public relations manager Rindu Ragilia has not responded to questions asked by The Jakarta Post in relation to the matter. (win/bbn)
