Great investment by Indonesia! And of course congrats to China to export their fantastic trains and infrastructure capabilities.

Never thought Indonesia had bullet type trains. Thank you for showing this

[tarkatan]

we need to learn from asian countries on how to build high speed trains. 350Km per hour is so good to have

China's infrastructure construction ability is trustworthy. The Indonesian government has a great vision and made the right choice. Also, congratulations to the people of Indonesia for having the most advanced and convenient high-speed rail system in the world.

As a Chinese, I am very glad that our cooperation with local people has brought convenience to their lives. I hope that the lives of Indonesian people will get better and better, just like what we wrote in Tiananmen Square: Long live the great unity of the people of the world!

The cities of Jakarta and Bali are places worth visiting 🇮🇩

Really cool to see Indonesia's got HSR now. The UK really needs to get its act together and bring HSR over here!

There are many iconic names for high speed services. Be it Shinkansen, TGV, ICE, AVE, and so on. But for some reason, I think "Whoosh" is just wonderful, and this video is the first time I've heard of it. What a simple yet effective name to market your high speed trains. I love it.

WOW! China really did a fantastic job with the train and its infrastructure. Congratulations Indonesia!!!

[InvestedAdventure]

Impressive train indeed! I recently took the train myself in business class and shared my experience on my channel. 👌 The top-notch service was fantastic, but what made it special were the friendly locals I met along the way.🇮🇩

13:10 That's true. Ten years ago, the Indonesian train was awful. You could sit on the top of the train illegally, it was dirty, hot, people sat on the floor, and even slept.
But now, they are clean, have air conditioning, the seat is comfortable, and there are strict rules like no smoking, no weapons, no sitting on the floor, no disturbing, no loud, and they had security in the train, etc.

A few years ago we travelled from Gambir to Jogjakarta on a comfortable air-conditioned train. It wasn't a high speed train but it started on time, finished on time, was clean and comfortable and provided a tasty lunch. Looking forward now to an opportunity to try the high speed train.

[CarstenHazz]

Just FYI. Since the opening in October last year, it's already get 2 million passenger in total in February with 40ish trip a day and KEEL GROWING 😍

[vinosatwika]

Correction: now it's 56 trips per day!

NGL i think whoosh such an amazing name for a bullet train, gave that person medal for even think that kind of name...

[hengongchua]

Smart Indonesians know who can be good trusted partner.

The world fastest operation bullet train are currently at China. 380km/h operation speed between Shanghai - Beijing.

[Delyar]

Great video!
As a locomotive enthusiast from China, this looks far too familiar. So sad they didn’t replicate the airline first class style seats used on Chinese trains. Would really like to watch a video on that!

[gameznunux]

Just heard that Indonesia has HSR, great leap for their transportation. I will visit Indonesia soon, and try it.
