For the ojek, the standard fare for a short-distance ride (Nagoya, Jodoh,...) is 10k. I suggest to pay 15k to be not stingy with a poor worker. 30k for Formosa-A2-Formosa could be ok. I mostly pay 15k for a single ride. 20k could be given at night or if one wants to be very generous. 30k for a single ojek ride is too much.
thks!
bookmark for ojek market prices.

i read from another senior bro, for short trips ard nagoya area local prices are more like: 7-10k for ojek, 20-25k for taxi. but my bahasa indonesia not good enough to bargain down to local prices, so i also pay like 10-15k for ojeks usually haven't taken taxi quite some time, unless raining
