ABSTRACT

The increasing mobility of society today requires the presence of transportation facilities that can support it. The presence of online-based transportation means, one of which is GOJEK, for its users, is considered a solution for the high mobility of today's society. Even transportation facilities that were not based online before, are now competing to make services online. However, the fact is that the presence of online-based transportation means is not without problems. Frequent conflicts with providers of conventional transportation facilities are proof of the problematic presence of online transportation facilities. Ironically, the government was confused about issuing policies regarding the existence of this online transportation facility. On the one hand, its presence feels very much needed by the community, but on the other hand it is often the cause of conflict. Meanwhile, a comprehensive arrangement is not yet available. Since the issuance of the policy regarding the regulation of online transportation facilities, it has been noted that several times have been revised.
