Simulation Game to Develop Action Priorities in Jakarta

Pelangi is developing software (a simulation game) to enable multiple-stakeholders to assess the relative impact of alternative ways of reducing vehicle emission in Jakarta, Indonesia and subsequently to use that software to develop action priorities for vehicle emission reduction. The research project will take 16 months.

The research is expected to change the way the multiple-stakeholders evaluate the policies as they learn about the way policies affect the things they value. The change is measured by comparing the action priorities before and after playing with the simulation game. As a result, if the action plan is adopted and implemented, then the improvement in air quality of Jakarta should be significant. In addition, the approach developed in this research can be a model for many other cities in Indonesia as well as other countries.

The research builds on previous work by multiple-stakeholders in Jakarta titled Mitra Emisi Bersih (MEB or Partnership for Clean Emissions). MEB, that comprises of national and local governments, the private sectors, non-government organizations, and academia, has initiated to use a participatory and process approach to formulate and subsequently implement the integrated vehicle emissions reduction action plan.

Despite the great efforts by the MEB to formulate the action plan, the prediction until year 2015 by Syahril et. al. (2002) indicated that the measures may only lead to a relatively modest improvement in air quality and unfortunately will still exceed the ambient air quality standard.

We have further identified that the MEB action plan is lack of priorities setting that may mainly due to absence of (i) information of the emission reduction required in order to meet the ambient air quality standard and (ii) understanding of the relative impact of alternative ways of reducing vehicle emission during the action plan formulation process.

In this research, we hypothesize the simulation game that build based on the system dynamics model may assist the MEB to take effective actions towards improving the human and economic health.
