Kompasiana.com - In order to achieve the integration of West Java transportation in an effort and increase the use of public transportation modes, the West Java government needs to present various innovations. One of the innovations that need to be implemented by Trans Purwasuka system.
"Our hope is to bring West Java as the most innovative, collaborative, and integrated in public transportation."
The mode of public transportation is the terminology used to describe the mode of transportation used by the general public to go from one place to another as a destination, while Purwasuka is a geographical cultural area located in West Java Province which is divided into three district marked T plate is the license plate code of the motor vehicle police.
Trans Purwasuka stands for Purwakarta, Subang, and Karawang transportation is a public transportation system with an integrated bus, river, flying taxi and road system covering three districts (samples) that are easily accessible and wheelchair-friendly (disability) to get from one place of origin to another place as a goal.
"The Trans Purwasuka system is designed based on the Transport for London (TfL) system, which has a legal entity created by the Greater London Authority consisting of the Mayor of London and the London Assembly."
The Greater London Authority, just like the regional government of West Java province, consists of the Governor of West Java as Mayor of London and the DPRD of West Java as the London Assembly for the legal entity Trans Purwasuka which operates in Purwakarta, Subang, and Karawang.
The Governor of West Java and DPRD of West Java or Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah Jawa Barat (DPRD JAWA BARAT) is Regional People's Representative Assembly directly elected by the people of West Java democratically in general elections.
That is, to design Trans Purwasuka as a legal entity, the West Java Regional Government through Law Number 23 of 2014 concerning Regional Government determines the form of Regional Owned Enterprises or Badan Usaha Milik Daerah (BUMD)Â consisting of regional public companies and regional limited liability companies.
Each country has different types of legal entities. The US equivalent of  Perseroan Terbatas (PT) is a limited liability company (LLC). Most PTs operate like limited liability companies (LLCs) and offer shares to the public. Shareholders of a PT are legally responsible for the debts of the company in the event of bankruptcy. However, investors are only responsible for their initial investment amount. Articles on the  association of a PT describe the share structure.
Trans Purwasuka from the point of view of a regional public company is a BUMD which is wholly owned by a West Java Regional Government and is not divided into shares. In the event that Trans Purwasuka is located in several regencies/cities, the regional public company must change its legal form into a regional company which is divided into shares of the Purwakarta Government, Subang Government, and Karawang Regional Government in PT. Trans Purwasuka.
"PT. Trans Purwasuka may form a subsidiary and/or own shares in another company in the form of a limited liability company whose capital is divided into shares which are wholly or at least 51% of the shares are owned by the West Java Provincial Government."
PT. Trans Purwasuka as a regional government company after being stipulated by a regional regulation or Peraturan Daerah (Perda) directly in the authority to manage transportation is a regional government agency that is responsible for all transportation mode systems.
If PT. Trans Purwasuka, based on the Transport for London (TfL) system, can manage West Java buses such as the London bus, the West Java underground electric fast train network such as the London Underground, the West Java Light Rail Transit as the West Java LRT such as the Docklands Light Railway, commuter trains West Java is like London Overground and West Java tram is like London Tram.
Thus, interesting research Transport for London (TfL) also operates London river services, Victoria Bus Station, congestion charge schemes, major road network, all 6,000 London traffic lights, regulates flying taxis and private public transport modes.
Therefore, PT. Trans Purwasuka as a public sector organization seeks to adopt Transport for London (TfL) with the private sector by expecting a win-win solution.
Management of transportation modes related to public interest requires the role of the Governor and DPRD in the preparation, discussion and approval of regional regulations atau peraturan daerah (perda) on Trans Purwasuka based on Transport for London (TfL) because the local government administrators are the Governor and DPRD.
The Governor and DPRD of West Java created the Trans Purwasuka system as an upscale public transportation mode that took time. Upscale public transportation needs an additional basis for the ideal benefits of public transportation in service planning.
Proof of the success of the ideal benefit of integrating different types of public transport in the significant growth in the use of public transport in London, particularly end-to-end services.
"Affordability, efficiency, and security of public transportation with the safest and ecologically sustainable public transportation system in end-to-end services."
End-to-end services from London can be applied to various modes of public transportation in West Java including PT. Trans Purwasuka can provide adequate public transportation services for public transportation users with a pattern of integration and connectivity with an integrated electronic fare payment system.
The integrated electronic fare payment system can calculate fares based on distance or time, regardless of the number of passenger transfers. Various public transportations can also distribute their income evenly according to the distance traveled by certain modes of transportation in that service.
Research on London's modes of transport is not complete without exploring the Thames by boat as the main mode of transport. Several rivers in London, such as the Citarum River, the largest river in West Java as well. The Thames river is different from the Citarum river which is rarely used by public transportation modes because the Citarum river has not been used as a mode of public transportation.
"The potential of large rivers in West Java as a water transportation route capable of being directly connected between modes of transportation and river transportation has not been well managed by the West Java Regional Government."
The West Java regional government must realize how important the role of transportation is, especially river transportation as a mode of transportation in the waters must be arranged in a single unit opened Monday to Sunday at 08:00 AM to 20:00 PM in integrated river waters that are profitable in West Java.
To launch regional air, land and water routes that open new connections throughout West Java, helping public transport users plan the best routes for guaranteed safe travel for business, trade, investment and tourism.
Thus, future innovations for Trans Purwasuka users based on Transport for London (TfL) are enough to make a payment and can switch to air transportation modes, land transportation modes and water transportation modes to go from one place of origin to another as a great destination in West Java.( *)
