TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - PT GoTo Gojek Tokopedia Tbk (GOTO) has responded to developments regarding a potential business merger with Grab Indonesia, a plan the government recently confirmed is still under discussion.

GOTO Company Director and Secretary, R.A. Koesoemohadiani, stated that the company supports the government’s priorities and is open to various discussions.

"We are open to various discussions that could support the long-term interests of the company's stakeholders," Koesoemohadiani said in an official information disclosure on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, cited on Tuesday, December 2, 2025.

Koesoemohadiani stressed that management always prioritizes the welfare of its driver partners. He affirmed that if the merger process becomes more definitive, the company will adhere to existing regulations.

"If there is a process that has become more mature, involving various parties, the Company will always comply with all applicable laws and regulations."

He also emphasized GOTO’s commitment to transparency, promising to provide any material information that arises. Furthermore, GOTO's focus remains on core operations. "Focusing on strong execution and effectively serving the customers, which is the best effort to strengthen the achievement for all parties," he stated.

The statement from GOTO follows confirmation from the Minister of Investment and Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM), and CEO of Danantara Indonesia, Rosan Roeslani.

"It's still ongoing," Rosan said after meeting with President Prabowo Subianto at the Presidential Palace Complex in Jakarta on Thursday, November 27, 2025.

Rosan noted that although no final decision has been made, the merger discussions are showing positive progress. "Positive, the signal is positive," he added.

On November 11, Pandu Sjahrir, Chief Investment Officer (CIO) of BPI Danantara Indonesia, stated that the final decision rests entirely with the two companies, GoTo and Grab Indonesia. Nevertheless, Danantara and the government will continue to monitor the process.

Sjahrir emphasized that the main priority remains the fundamental business-to-business (B2B) aspects between the companies.

"The government also provides input, and we certainly follow the government's input. But the most important thing is the B2B element," Sjahrir said on Tuesday, November 11, 2025, at Wisma Danantara Jakarta.

He concluded that Danantara will continue to provide support, provided the merger can generate financial benefits for the company, as "commercial return is also crucial."
