==== Indonesia ==== In [[Indonesia]], auto rickshaws are popular in [[Jakarta]] as ''Bajay'', [[Java]], [[Medan]] and [[Gorontalo]] as ''Bentor'', and some parts of [[Sulawesi]] and other places in the country. In Jakarta, the auto rickshaws are called ''Bajay'' or ''Bajaj'' and they are the same to as the ones in India but are colored blue (for the ones which use [[compressed natural gas]]) and orange (for normal gasoline fuel).<ref name="Republika">{{cite news |title=Bajaj Oranye Menunggu Giliran Dimusnahkan |url=http://www.republika.co.id/berita/koran/urbana/16/01/07/o0kug62-bajaj-oranye-menunggu-giliran-dimusnahkan |access-date=26 May 2018 |work=Republika Online |date=7 January 2016 |language=id}}</ref> The blue ones are imported from India with the brand of [[Bajaj Auto|Bajaj]] and [[TVS Motor|TVS]] and the orange ones are the old design from 1977.
