Daftar Isi:
  • As in any other developing country, in Indonesia there is an increasing degree of motorization. Transport policies such as high road investment expenditure, inadequate road user charging system and insufficient public transport services encourage the use of private vehicles. Vehicle ownership models are needed by the government for various purposes such as producing rough predictions of the demand on the highway network and consequent energy consumption, introducing appropriate transportation demand management, predicting income from car purchasing tax / car registration tax and the contribution of vehicle manufacturing industries to public wealth. Such models have been produced for several developing countries for decades but have not been comprehensively studied in Indonesia. The feature of the model proposed for Indonesia is motorcycle ownership as the intermediate vehicle ownership before owning a car. Aggregate models (municipality and regency based) will be developed using mostly secondary data obtained from the Indonesian Central Agency of Statistics (1991-2000) and other related government agencies. To provide basic knowledge of household vehicle purchase history, a limited retrospective multiple-cohort study based on a single cross-sectional survey will be conducted.
