Hello Nerds! Welcome back to my channel!

In January 2022, the government of Indonesia approved a move to relocate its capital city from Jakarta to Nusantara, on the island of Borneo.

The new capital city of Indonesia will be called 'Nusantara' meaning archipelago in Javanese language. The decision was made to ease some pressure off Jakarta, which is struggling with issues like overpopulation, flooding, air pollution and rapid depletion of groundwater.

On the flip side, moving the capital city to Nusantara on Borneo island posses a different kind of challenge. Borneo is home to one of the oldest rainforests on the planet, and shifting the capital could have a direct impact on the rainforest and the environment.
