SEAToday.com, Jakarta - The Transportation Ministry estimates that the number of homecoming travelers in 2024 Eid al-Fitr will reach 193.6 million people or 71.7 percent of Indonesia's population.
The number was obtained from a survey conducted by the Transportation Policy Agency of the Transportation Ministry together with the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) and the Communication and Information Technology Ministry, involving a number of transportation experts. The figure has increased compared to the 2023 Eid al-Fitr traveler number which reached 123.8 million people.
