  • This initiative aims to collaborate with brands and increase non-fare revenue.

The Jakarta provincial government is expanding its 'naming rights' program for Transjakarta bus stops, with plans to offer six additional locations to private companies. This strategy is designed to foster collaboration with the business sector and boost non-fare revenue for the public transportation system. Governor of Jakarta, Pramono Anung, announced the initiative, emphasizing the government's commitment to building trust with businesses to jointly develop the capital city. The newly inaugurated Swadarma Paragon integrated facility marks the eighth bus stop to enter into a naming rights agreement with Transjakarta. Previous partnerships include stops named after major brands such as Astra, Bank DKI, and Telkomsel. The program leverages corporate social responsibility, as seen with PT Paragon Technology and Innovation's support for the Swadarma Paragon stop and the Bhineka Integrated Facility, highlighting a growing trend of public-private partnerships in urban infrastructure.
