Indonesia announces site of capital city to replace Jakarta I Nusantara: Future Capital City

Indonesia has announced plans to move its capital from the climate-threatened megalopolis of Jakarta to the sparsely populated island of Borneo,
which is home to some of the world’s greatest tropical rainforests.
the move was necessary because the burden on Jakarta was “too heavy”,
but environmentalists said the $33bn relocation needed to be carefully handled
or it would result in fleeing one ecological disaster only to create another.
As well as dire problems of pollution and traffic congestion, Jakarta suffers from severe subsidence,
which makes the coastal city extremely vulnerable to rising sea levels.
