flag Indonesia’s proposed ride-hailing reforms would cut commissions, mandate insurance, and boost driver protections, pending final approval.

flag A draft presidential decree in Indonesia could slash ride-hailing commissions for two-wheel vehicles from 20% to 10%, mandate platforms to cover accident and death insurance at about $1 per month per driver, and split costs for health, pension, and old-age premiums. flag The proposal, under review by President Prabowo Subianto, also grants drivers the right to unionize and allows government oversight of platform-worker agreements. flag Driven by protests and a driver’s death during demonstrations, the changes aim to improve gig worker protections amid concerns over a potential merger between GoTo and Grab. flag The rules would apply to ride-hailing and on-demand logistics firms, with industry sources warning they could threaten platform profitability and reduce driver numbers. flag The final status and enforcement timeline remain unclear.
