History

ASDP was originally established during the reign of President Soeharto, precisely in 1973 which was carried out by the PASDF (Proyek Angkutan Sungai, Danau, dan Ferry — River, Lake and Ferry Transportation Project) under the auspices of the Directorate of River, Lake and Ferry Transportation Traffic (DLLASDF), Directorate General of Land Transportation of Ministry of Transportation. Soeharto wanted to connect the land route from Banda Aceh in northernmost corner of Sumatra to Lospalos in easternmost corner of Timor Island.

On its journey PASDF was changed to PASDP (Proyek Angkutan Sungai Danau dan Penyeberangan — River, Lake, and Crossing Transportation Project) in 1980 and in 1992 it changed to PT Angkutan Sungai Danau dan Penyeberangan (Persero). In 2004 its name changed into PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry (Persero), as part of a business transformation process and branding.[4]
