WHY JAPAN IS NOT HAPPY WITH INDONESIA'S HIGH SPEED TRAIN SUCCESS
ashley robertson - ashleyrobertsonchannel

Japan has long been a powerhouse in the development and export of cutting-edge high-speed train technology. Their Shinkansen, or 'bullet trains,' are renowned for their speed, efficiency, and safety features. However, the recent emergence of Indonesia on the high-speed rail scene, coupled with their partnership with China, seems to have stirred some apprehension in Japan. Today, we're going to unpack why Japan might not be entirely thrilled about Indonesia's high-speed train success and what implications this collaboration holds for the economic and strategic interests of both nations.

It's important to note that international collaborations in infrastructure projects are complex and multifaceted. They involve economic considerations, technological competition, and even geopolitical dynamics. So, watch the full video to unravel the layers of this intriguing story and try to understand why Japan is closely watching Indonesia's high-speed train project with a discerning eye.

I read the most liked Japanese comment of a video about Indonesian bullet train saying "Chinese trains go 350km/h because they don't care about human life". Maybe it's a little translation error but the comment was full of pettiness and copium. The sore loser energy surprised me. The fact that they act superior to rest of Asia while kneeling to the west kinda pathetic.

I'm Indonesian and I'm happy our president choose China. The news reminds me of my experience in a business trip around Tokyo, I was with my boss and colleagues trying shinkansen. An old man in front of me asking where I came from. I answer Jakarta or Bali Indonesia. Once he grasp the answer, he said "massage". I look up to my boss and my boss said the Japanese old man is drunk. I told my friends they should have went to some other countries if they were so curious about shinkansen. The image of the old pervert man of Japan ruined all the good image build by all the business dinners in the most expensive hotels with the main industries in Tokyo the previous days.

my father is part of military, also Indonesian face threats from separatist militia in Papua, which suspectedly funded by Australian government since they had history with Timor Leste for oil... and guess what... Papua is rich in natural resource like gold. Everyone aware know if there is next U.S new state it will be Australia and Japan also aligned with U.S

Come on Japanese dont too greedy. The reason behind we dont have our own national car is because your lobbies. Indonesia is the heaven of Japanese car and bike markets..

In my opinion, as an Indonesian, the Japanese government is too bound by United States politics in determining its foreign economic decisions and policies.
It is no secret that the motto of United States foreign policy is "if there is a country it doesn't like." then the United States will order all its allies to support and follow it!"
You can see the treatment of the United States and its allies towards Russia, China, Iran and many more!
This is what our Indonesian defense minister once said 🇮🇩 in an international forum that "YOUR ENEMY IS NOT MY ENEMY, DON'T INVITE AND FORCE US TO FOLLOW YOUR WISHES!"
It is time for all countries in the world to change their political systems and economic outlook for the sake of the sovereignty of their nation and state, freedom to determine one's attitude and make decisions or policies for the good of one's own nation and state!🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🙏🙏🙏

Japan was previously the number in HSR.
Today it is China, the number one. Chinese HSR is the fastest, smoothest, most energy efficient most cost effective.
With 42k of HSR, China has economies of scale and better capability in R&D. Hence each generation of Chinese is better than the previous one.

[erenyeagerist]

If I am not mistaken Indonesia is the first SEA country to have HSR like this. Congrats to my Indonesian brothers for having HSR!

Kita selalu mendahulukan transaksi dengan beberapa negara maju dengan dasar TOT ( transfer of technology ).. itulah dasar Indonesia menjalankan transaksi beberapa proyek dengan negara negara maju.😊 seperti kerja sama pembuatan Kapala laut dengan Korea selatan..yang akhirnya Indonesia mampu membuat sendiri.

[rosidudin]

Indonesia memilih china meskipun sedikit mahal karena china bersedia berbagi teknologi dan melatih semua orang indonesia untuk meng oprasikan dan merawat sendiri, itu hal yang perlu di ingat, dan penting sbg negara yang bersahabat dan saling menguntungkan

Is Japan, a global leader in high-speed rail? Japan failed in India, Vietnam, etc. Japan has not completed any high-speed rail outside Japan.

[wirosableng-kdyj]

The world must start opening its eyes. The Jakarta-Bandung high-speed train project is just the beginning of a mega project with a minimum length of 2000km. After the Jakarta-Bandung high-speed train project is successful, it will be extended to Surabaya with a length of around 700km. Many vloggers & YouTubers from neighboring countries such as Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and even vloggers and YouTubers from Europe, India, Japan came to try the Jakarta Bandung high-speed train. And everyone said they were very satisfied, minimal vibration, no noise, magnificent station, excellent service and so on. Even vloggers and YouTubers from Japan admit that the Jakarta-Bandung high-speed train, apart from being faster, also has less vibrations & no noise than the fastest Shinkansen train, namely the Tokaido Shinkansen with a maximum speed of 320km and the vlogger also admits that he feels a little disappointed because it turns out there is a better fast train than Shinkansen. Just for your information, why Indonesia finally chose to collaborate with China rather than Japan is because, 1. Japan offers trains operating since 1995 with a maximum speed of 250km. 2. Japan also does not want to share technology or transfer technology with Indonesia. 3. Meanwhile, China offers their newest train, which in China itself only started operating in 2016 with a maximum speed of 420km. 3. China is also willing to share technology for making high-speed railway tracks. 4. The price offered by China is also 30% cheaper than that offered by Japan.

With that in mind, I'm sure any sane person would choose China over Japan. Japan's dislike of China's success in developing fast trains is actually justified, because in the past there was a Japanese company that sold information to China about making fast trains so that China was able to make its own fast trains and currently they are better than Japan's Shinkansen trains, however If you look at the past, Japan should feel guilty because of the invasion and colonization they carried out on mainland China, they spread suffering, they spread hatred, they took many lives, but now they feel annoyed just because China succeeded in developing a fast train that is better than their fast train. Japan. And just so you know, most of the Japanese population is not native Japanese but instead native people who came from China settled in Japan and by the Japanese government they were forced to use Japanese names and use the Japanese language.

but just like America which is full of lies, Japan also practices doctrine to its people by saying that products made in China are no better than Japan when in reality, although Chinese products are cheaper, the quality is even equivalent to Japanese products or better, this can all happen because of people's principles. China is looking for a market while the Japanese principle is looking for profit. That's why Chinese products are sold at low prices but as a result they get a very wide market. The Jakarta-Bandung high-speed train project uses 60% funding from Indonesia and 40% funding from China with a payment period of 30 years, but in fact if Indonesia wanted, Indonesia could pay it off today, but the agreement made was a 30 year contract, even so in the end Indonesia and China have succeeded in proving that in Asia it is not only Japan that can produce high-speed trains and the world has finally learned that cheaper products do not necessarily have worse quality, it could even be that cheaper products have better quality than more expensive products. This could happen because the Chinese trading principle is to look for markets, not just profit. Meanwhile, Japan is very stingy and does not want to share technology because Japan knows and realizes the potential of countries in Southeast Asia which, if they get advanced technology, these countries can surpass Japan, that's why Japan feels afraid and ultimately tries to make other countries depend on it, unlike China, which wants to share technology with developing countries so that in the future when these countries are developed, these countries can become partners for China, not just become money-making countries as Japan hopes. However, this information must have been hidden by the Japanese government because once again the Japanese government indoctrinated its people and instilled the belief that products made in China are no better than products made in Japan. That's why after there were several vloggers from Japan who proved for themselves the advantages of the Jakarta Bandung fast train, this secret was not released. can be covered up again and Japan must open their eyes that if they act naively in the end they will be even more left behind.

Japan never lacks bean counters and good technicians but always lacks visionary leaders.

[ffatboy]

compare Vietnam and India. Indonesia is correct indeed.

[channeltutorial]

Talking about positive feelings, it is challenging to harbor any positive sentiments toward the Japanese who practiced forced labor (romusha) during World War II. My grandfather, who served as a soldier during that time, often recounted the hardships endured, particularly under Japanese colonization, which he described as the most difficult period. so here's my middle finger for you japan, And we, the Indonesian people, have traded with China for thousands of years, and never once have they colonized Indonesia, unlike some other countries

[tailslapexplore]

Japan is happy while Vietnam and India is crying 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Indonesia make the right choice 👍

[produksidenkos]

I agree.. Japan should shifts their diplomacy policy toward knowledge transfer base to make the world great again in TOGETHERNESS..
Am i naive.. i think not 😊

[cbnighthawk]

Japan has never wanted to share technology with others.

[dodiiskandar]

Berpuluh puluh tahun Indonesia hanya dijadikan pasar produk Jepang, saat Indonesia berubah tapi Jepang tidak siap.

[LGVRhin-Rhone]

As a Japanese person it's quite embarrassing seeing all the netizens from my country being so biased. I'm genuinely happy that Indonesia got a new bullet train and I hope the two countries can maintain an equal relationship with eachother.
