DAMRI Public Corporation ({{langx|id|Perusahaan Umum DAMRI}}; was {{lang|id|Djawatan Angkoetan Motor Repoeblik Indonesia}}, {{lit|Motor Transport Enterprise of the Republic of Indonesia}}) is an Indonesian state-owned bus operator.{{cite web |url=https://jakarta-tourism.go.id/visit/blog/2018/02/bus-damri| title=Detail| language=id| publisher=Enjoy Jakarta|access-date=March 10, 2020}} Under further development as a public company, the name DAMRI is still used as a brand mark of this state-owned company that still carries out passenger and cargo transport using buses and trucks.

DAMRI has a service network that spreads nearly throughout all regions of Indonesia. In its business activities, DAMRI provides city transport, transport within province, intercity transport, airport transport, tourism transport, logistics transport, transport to isolated areas and inter-country transport.

History

DAMRI's history officially began in 1943, with the establishment of two enterprises during the Japanese occupation of Java: {{nihongo|the Java Transportation Enterprise|ジャワ運輸事業社|Jawa Un'yu Jigyōsha|lead=yes|extra=Nihon-shiki: Zyawa Un'yu Zigyôsya}} for freight logistics, and the {{nihongo|Automobile Board|自動車総局|Jidōsha Sōkyoku|lead=yes|extra=Nihon-shiki: Zidôsha Sôkyoku}} for passenger transport. After Indonesia proclaimed independence in 1945, Java Transportation Enterprise changed its name to Djawatan Pengangkoetan (Transport Enterprise) and Automobile Board changed its name to Djawatan Angkoetan Darat (Land Transport Enterprise) as both enterprises were taken over by the Indonesian Department of Transportation.

By 25 November 1946, both enterprises were merged, through a Ministry of Transportation announcement ({{langx|id|Maklumat Menteri Perhubungan No.01/DAM/46}}), into Djawatan Angkoetan Motor Repoeblik Indonesia (DAMRI). It was tasked to "operate land transportation by buses, trucks and other types of motor vehicles".

DAMRI has played an active role during the Indonesian National Revolution, especially during the resistance against the Dutch military aggressions.

In 1961, DAMRI was reorganized as a General Director Board ({{langx|id|Badan Pimpinan Umum, BPU}}). In 1965 the DAMRI BPU became a State Corporation ({{langx|id|Perusahaan Negara, PN}}), and in 1982 it was reorganized as a public corporation.{{cite web |url=https://www.damrilogistics.co.id/tentang-kami| title=Sejarah Singkat| language=id| publisher=Damri Logistics|access-date=March 10, 2020}}{{cite web |url=https://damri.co.id/sejarah| title=Sejarah | language=id| publisher=Damri|access-date=March 10, 2020}}

On 8 June 2023, Perum PPD, an Indonesian statutory corporation that moves in the transportation sector, specifically land transportation in Jakarta and areas surrounding the city, was merged into DAMRI. Minister of State-Owned Enterprises Erick Thohir stated, that the merge was to prevent the overlap of Indonesia's national transportation service,{{Cite web |last=Praditya |first=Ilyas Istianur |date=2023-06-08 |title=Tok, Perum DAMRI dan PPD Resmi Digabung |url=https://www.liputan6.com/bisnis/read/5314027/tok-perum-damri-dan-ppd-resmi-digabung |access-date=2023-12-13 |website=liputan6.com |language=id}} as Perum PPD itself has already expanded its service to Bali, as the operator of Trans Sarbagita transit bus system.
