Free traffic jams such as trains are a solution to traffic congestion, especially in the Greater Jakarta area. The party building the railroad infrastructure is not only done by the government, but can also be done by the private sector. The government has established regulations that help ease the burden on contractors, namely regulations on the provision of VAT-Not-Collected for the import of railroad infrastructure. But in practice the regulation is not easy to implement, because it is complicated and seems to deviate from the initial spirit. This study uses a qualitative method with in-depth interviews with relevant informants.
