he Jakarta administration plans to expand the recipients of the Jakarta Smart Card Plus (KJP Plus) student support program in 2019, with the inclusion of children of Jak Lingko public transportation drivers.
The policy is stipulated in Governor Regulation No. 15/2019 on the KJP Plus.
Article 4 stipulates that KJP Plus recipients are children aged from 6 to 21 years old whose parents are drivers of micro-buses that are partnered with Transjakarta. Jak Lingko is a public transportation system by which passengers may travel on Transjakarta buses and angkot (public minivans) for one flat fare.
Jakarta Education Agency secretary Susie Nurhati said that soon after the regulation was issued on Feb. 15, the agency compiled data on the number of Jak Lingko drivers’ children entitled to be KJP Plus recipients.
“We’re recording the data and expect to complete it in March. The first phase of the KJP Plus has been disbursed,” Susie said as reported by kompas.com on Monday, noting that the Jak Lingko drivers are not required to submit relief letter (SKTM) for the program.
As of February, 661 angkot drivers had been integrated with Transjakarta under the Jak Lingko program. The city aims to sign up 1,400 angkot drivers by the end of 2019. (vla)
