Neraka Ojol: Tingginya Harga Minyak dan Kejamnya Aturan Sistem

In cities around the world, millions of online motorcycle taxi (ojol) drivers and food couriers work long hours on the streets, fulfilling orders from ride-hailing apps. This system is often promoted as a form of financial freedom—where anyone can be their own boss. However, the reality is far more complex. Rising global oil prices, global geopolitical tensions, and the algorithmic systems of technology companies have created significant economic pressure on gig workers. When fuel prices soar, operational costs fall directly on drivers, while fares and commission cuts from app companies often don't adjust. As a result, many drivers must work longer hours, travel longer distances, and face a higher risk of accidents just to maintain dwindling incomes. This phenomenon isn't limited to one country. From cities in Southeast Asia to Africa, ride-hailing drivers are among the first to feel the direct impact of global energy price volatility. This video explores how rising global oil prices and the digital economy can create significant pressure on street workers in the gig economy era. #ojol #gojek #grabbike
