Why is Indonesia Building a New Capital? | Vantage with Palki Sharma

Indonesian President has begun working from a new capital city. Why? Because Indonesia plans to change its capital from Jakarta to Nusantara. Even though Nusantara is only 15% developed since the 2019 announcement, President Joko Widodo remains undeterred despite low investment, missed deadlines, and controversies. Why is Indonesia building a new capital? Will it succeed? How unusual is the plan and have other nations changed their capitals before? Palki Sharma brings you the report.

Jokowi is a very strong willed person and i respect him for that. Current problem is money, but i think next president will raise enough loan and investment to continue

Ini bukan infrastruktur yang lambat... anda bayangkan dibentuk tim pembangunan maret 2022 dan mulai dibangun Desember 2022 sekarang IKN di 2024... artinya kurang dari 2 tahun sudah kelihatan bentuknya.... menurut saya ini suatu yang luar biasa

Tidak bisa hanya mengandalkan Jakarta, Jakarta susah di atur, kota yang sangat padat. Jakarta penuh orang egois dan banyak koruptor. Jakarta kota yang tak pernah di rencanakan, makanya kotanya berantakan, banyak rumah kumuh yang di bangun sembarangan. Perlunya kota baru yang di rencanakan, aman dan tertib, seperti dubay kota yang nyaman dan indah.

[ricosubekti]

bodoh jika mereka bilang jakarta di tinggalkan.
jakarta adalah pusat ekonomi.
memindahkan ibukota malah membuat beban jakarta lebih ringan.
singkatnya.
jakarta = new york
Nusantara = Washington DC

[bufelacute]

terima kasih banyak untuk bapak presiden Indonesia atas kerja keras nya selama bertugas memeratakan pembangunan di seluruh Indonesia tanpa mengenal lelah, , kami sebagai rakyat Indonesia hanya bisa mendoakan untuk pak presiden Indonesia beserta keluarga selalu di beri kesehatan, kemudahan dalam menjalankan kerja ke seluruh negeri pak presiden joko widodo

[deqhiej.rasyid]

Indonesia is now stable in politics, moving the capital so that Kalimantan can develop, people living in Kalimantan are happy, Kalimantan has 4.7 million people who do not have a capital city. I live in Kalimantan, it's true that Kalimantan is finally developing. Many companies come in, from Korean companies, Australian companies, and many other big companies like coal, so the economy of Kalimantan is good again, even later people from other islands can live in Kalimantan.
