Looking at the numbers, the 5-million-rupiah subsidy is roughly in line with the last round. Technically speaking, it's the execution pace that keeps tripping this up, not the program design. Saying "by September" while the ministerial regulation is still pending feels like an optimistic schedule more than a settled fact.

Is this only for new bikes? No subsidy for used electric ones?

Industry ministry coordination still unfinished — the usual pattern.

Still waiting on the ministerial reg means nothing's really decided yet.

With technical rules unsettled, rollout likely slips past October.

"By September" again — feels like we heard this exact line last year.

5 million rupiah off would genuinely push more people to buy electric.
