They are called "penglaju" (commuter).

They go from Depok, Bogor, Bekasi, or Tangerang to Jakarta every morning and return in the afternoon using Commuter Line train. Until August 2017, the average number of passengers reached 993,804 per day on weekdays with the highest number of passengers per day is 1,065,522. Commuter Line now serves 75 stations throughout Jabodetabek, Banten and Cikarang. ^[1]

PT KAI Commuter Jabodetabek (KCJ) is a state-owned enterprise that manages the railway transportation of Jakarta and its surrounding area. Based on the 2016 Annual Report, its net income is Rp2.04 trillion. Passenger income contributed Rp1.91 trillion. This revenue was generated from a total of 280,588,767 passengers in that year. The average passenger per day is 766,000 people.

Since 2012, PT KCJ's revenues have continued to rise. Take a look at graph below.^[2]

However, there are still many commuters who complain about PT KCJ services. The number of trains still can not serve number of passengers. The trains must be crowded during rush hours. It makes passengers uncomfortable and opens opportunities for sexual harassment and pickpocketing. With increasing revenue, PT KCJ should be able to improve its services.

Mereka disebut "penglaju".

Mereka melaju dari Depok, Bogor, Bekasi, atau Tangerang ke Jakarta setiap pagi dan pulang di sore hari dengan menumpang kereta Commuter Line. Sampai Agustus 2017, jumlah rata-rata penumpangnya mencapai 993.804 per hari pada hari kerja dengan rekor jumlah penumpang terbanyak dalam sehari adalah 1.065.522. Commuter Line kini melayani 75 stasiun di seluruh Jabodetabek, Banten dan Cikarang. ^[3]

PT KAI Commuter Jabodetabek (KCJ) adalah badan usaha milik pemerintah yang mengelola transportasi kereta api rel listrik wilayah Jakarta dan sekitarnya. Berdasarkan Laporan Tahunan 2016, total pendapatan bersihnya mencapai Rp2,04 triliun. Pendapatan penumpang menyumbang Rp1,91 triliun. Pendapatan ini diperoleh dari total 280.588.767 penumpang di tahun itu. Adapun rata-rata penumpang per hari adalah 766.000 orang.

Sejak 2012 pendapatan PT KCJ terus naik. Perhatikan grafik data ini.^[4]

Meski demikian, masih banyak penglaju yang mengeluhkan layanan PT KCJ. Jumlah kereta yang masih kurang membuat penumpang harus berdesak-desakan pada jam-jam sibuk. Hal ini membuat penumpang tak nyaman dan membuka peluang terjadinya pelecehan seksual dan pencopetan. Dengan pendapatan yang terus naik, seharusnya PT KCJ harus bisa meningkatkan layanannya.
