HI, I'M INDONESIAN AND THIS PROJECT IS ONGOING AND THE PALACE, THE PRESIDENT'S OFFICE IN THE SHAPED OF THE GARUDA BIRD, MINISTERS' HOUSES, STATE STAFF APARTMENTS, CEREMONIAL GROUND, PARK, RESERVOIR, ARTIFICIAL LAKE, HOSPITAL, HOTEL, EXHIBITION CENTER ARE ALL COMPLETED AND ENTERING THE FINISHING STAGE AND WILL BE USED ON AUGUST 17 TO COMMEMORATE INDONESIA'S INDEPENDENCE DAY CEREMONY. SO IN MY OPINION THIS VIDEO IS VERY BIASED AND CREATES A BAD NARRATIVE ABOUT THE NUSANTARA. SEVERAL LOCATIONS SUCH AS A FOOTBALL TRAINING CENTER, PLACE OF WORSHIP, MEMORIAL PARK, AIRPORT WILL ALSO BE TARGETTED TO BE COMPLETED BY THE END OF THIS YEAR. SO THIS VIDEO IS FOOTAGE TAKEN 2 YEARS AGO.
Seeing buzzerp (indonesian 50cent army) trying to deny that new capital city is failure in foreign media is such a comedy gold 😂😂. For outsider i like to tell you all that indonesian goverment is desperate to search for foreign investment and internal preasure is getting worse for the current goverment for this failure
33 billion for a city of 2.5 million is insanely cheap by some measures. -For context - the World Cup stadium in Qatar costed 50+ billion and was basically only used for a week.- EDIT: Correction. The cost for eight stadiums was $6.5 billion, meanwhile the overall cost for the event was $220 billion! Idk where I got the previous number from, but I just remember being mindblown by the fact that a one month event costed more than the GDP of entire countries, including that of: Portugal, Greece, New Zealand, Kazakhstan etc. Anyway... instead of the 2022 world cup 6.6 such cities could've been built, with the total population almost 6 times that of Qatar or more than twice the size of New York! TWO brand new New Yorks in Indonesia instead of FIFA. Insane imo!
@@seanrafabagass we have the choice not to build it anyway since they never asked the people for it. Only when deciding the name they did a contest. Looking at the developer invested on it, Im incline to think this just gonna be another BSD, PIK, Meikarta thing
Egypt's new capital costs 100 billion plus USD and it looks like a sparse, poorly designed city. The budget for Nusantara actually kinda pale in comparison
Correct,but Egypt's new capital is funded by the UAE, IKN is fully funded by Indonesian tax payers, so far no investor is interested in investing this stupid and wasted jokowi ambition..
Instead of spending the $33 billion into flood mitigation of Jakarta, they did this how stupid. With the amount of money they could've turned Jakarta into the next Amsterdam and continue to inhabit there for hundreds more years.
Jakarta is a disaster waiting to happen. People kept comparing Jakarta with Amsterdam, but they forgot one thing, Island of Java is susceptible to Quake.
0:48 Nusantara isn't in the middle of nowhere though. It's right smack in the middle of two major cities - Balikpapan and Samarinda. Basically they're building the start of a huge metropolitan area.
Without population controls, it will suffer the same fate as Jakarta. Overpopulation with massive unemployment.and crime along with environmental disasters.
To add: Both Balikpapan and Samarinda has similar or even more population than San Fransisco. US has some state capital cities that has 1/10 population of one of them.
@@_martian101 genuine question, what is the general public people opinion about this peoject? Are they willing to move to nusantara? Or they rather stay at jakarta? as for the rich and poor which are more likely to move there?
Im from the same Island Borneo, Malaysia. On our side we kinda hope Indonesia do able to make this project happen. it definitely can help both country to grow. Brunei aswell.
It's disappointing to see the Wall Street Journal's video on Nusantara presenting outdated footage and misleading information. Contrary to the claim that Nusantara threatens the rainforest, it is being built in an industrial forest area, which already poses a risk to the rainforest regardless of the new capital's construction. The development of Nusantara includes significant efforts toward sustainability and environmental protection. Accurate reporting is crucial for an informed discussion on this important project. Also the claim that Nusantara is being built "in the middle of nowhere" is inaccurate. Nusantara is strategically located near Balikpapan and Samarinda, both well-connected by toll roads, with plans to link these to Nusantara. These cities will support the new capital. While it's true that local communities face displacement issues, this is a recurring problem due to government incompetence. Instead of halting the project, we should focus on finding solutions to support local communities. Discussions on forums like Skyscrapercity offer more updated and credible information compared to major media outlets like the Wall Street Journal.
Don't expect too much, the bias on this kind of channel is quite obvious so missing information is quite normal. You can say that to most USA base news channel. While they have some relatively interesting fact but just put on mind most of times they just see it from one side be it negative or overly positive. It been like that since long time ago.
you Indonesian can say anything about your new babylon city. bcoz most of the foreigners, including our investor think like how the video is presented. and there's nothing u can do about it
That bald guy is wrong, Nusantara are located between Balikpapan and Samarinda, both cities are literally the two largest cities in entire island of Borneo by the population and Economy, East Kalimantan is also the province rich with resources and Industry
Yeah.. Quite a doubt if he is even doing his research in detail in the first place anyway😅😂 Besides, they are taking old footages of the progress.. Not the new one tho :D
Critics scoffed when Kuala Lumpur’s administrative center was moved to the undeveloped Putrajaya. Yet, this ambitious project has transformed into one of Malaysia’s iconic landmarks. Builders will build. Commentators will comment. Just do it and don't back down. You got this Indonesia! :)
putrajaya is merely 20km south of KL. It can easily enjoys all the economic and geographical advantages of kuala lumpur. nusantara is something else. good luck attracting even your own people to move from jakarta to kalimantan.
@@MesutOjil78 tbh its weird why they didn't just move the capital to Sumatera because its literally the nearest to Straits of Malacca (ease of capital city development) also the advantages of the route but Malaysians know why 🤣
Its both heartwarming and sad to know that Malaysians are overwhelmingly supportive of this project whereas a vocal minority of Indonesians with significant media backing and coverage have been duped into false narratives that this will fail.
It’s a first phase of construction folks, you gotta build the basic infrastructures before foreign investments will come in and the government is also giving priority to local investors otherwise Nusantara is owned by foreigners.
Exactly. But the mistake of indonesia is not communicating it clearly. Everyone be like: no investors at this stage therefore no investors forever. Its not like you have anything to invest at this point
@@Yusef-uh4wlIndonesia never said that, it's all Western Media reports. They don't want Indonesia to become a succesful country, they want this project to fail so Indonesia have a bad reputation.
Statistically, it does makes sense, but in practice this promote more inequality to the already diverse ethnic groups and their separated regions, especially the eastern side of Indonesia that still underdeveloped from all sectors. Not to mentions, the rice farming culture of the Javanese that lead to unsustainable food policies that replaced the original diets of the eastern Indonesia region that increased a demand for rice more than it should be, while local farmer break their bone in the the rice field without ever gain more income or even cheaper fertilizers. Instead of addressing the root problem, the government tend to choose short term fix by importing rice from Vietnam and others. Also, I lived in West Java which are the most populated province of Indonesia, but when we travel to Southern West Java, it's still underdeveloped since the Soeharto's regime compared to the northern Java, perhaps it's neglected due to mountainous terrains even though it had fertile soils for tea, coffee, rice, and vegetable farming.
Java centric gak masalah asalkan pembangunannya bukan dari menyedot kekayaan daerah lain utk bangun jawa. Kekayaan tambang2 mibyak, batubara, dll di sumatra dan derah lainnya hanya dinikmati jawa. Daerah yg punya aset malah tetap miskin. Listrik byar pet, jalan aspal cuma area utama, sisanya kubangan sapi. Ih..jadi emosi gw kl ngebahas ke tidak adilan ini. Sebal bal
The thumbnail is Wonderful but I regret watching this video. Almost everything is outdated, even the narration is outdated. I follow the development of this city and now they decide to build new houses for the people including those who do not have legal documents. Building a new city is a logical way for a developing country. 30 billion is not an expensive number at all. Fixing Jakarta's problems in the same time will cost 10 times more.
they even had the audacity to say indonesia isn't a rich country, as if it isnt one of the richest countries in the world. but i guess it shows the disastrous state of the global economy, and this world bank, imf, wto model of development and trade, where a country has to try to sell itself to people that want to take out more than they put in (foreign investors), aka a world ran by greed is a world we are building, and also we hope it wont burn the planet simultaneously.
You show old pictures to give the impression Indonesia's new capital city is far from finished.The palace is already complete and so is the other buildings.
It is FAR from finished. Building the new capital is not about building the palace, and other governmental buildings. Look at the airport and the highway, how far from finished are they? Also, how are they going to supply the 100% renewable energy they once promised? The presidential palace is just a cosmetique to cover the bad reality of the situation.
@@alfianmuhammad1335 The airport will be finished by the end of this month and the independence celebration in the new capital is going ahead as planned.

@@alexlong3714 to be honest, it's not really big of a deal, what matters is stability, as long they can keep the country in one piece and stable, stability brings foreign investors and more job opportunities.
Non-regime-buzzer here. Nusantara is Jokowi's political move to have his legacy remembered like previous presidents. Ironically, Nusantara has never been declared in his campaign. This city is not for the people, it's for the government regime to have better quality of life. Lots of land disputes, native people were compensated without relocation plan. Even Jokowi ignored McKinsey's research recommendations on city's water source location. There's no urgency for this. People with common sense knows this. As a native borneo living in Java, you're all duped by Jokowi.
This project was already a risk when the president annouced it back in 2019. The initial deadline was 2024 for phase one. But then covid happened and all progress must stop for a while, but the president insisted on the 2024 deadline. Resulting a very rushed progress and poor planning. Combined with investors that cancelled their investments and indonesia's own economy were in a progress to bounce back after covid, so they're running out of money as well. So now the government's move is they are planning to increase tax percentage, and tax something that wasn't taxed before. + jokowi put his son as vice president after him so things like this would likely only the beginning of a 5 year journey of economic downfall

Indonesia has $1.5 trillion gdp, with economy growth 5% . Their annual budget is $200+ billion per year, also this city is long term planning.. currently the phase 1 (government area) will soon be completed. there is $ 3.7 billion investment from local companies and will likely to increase since the letter of interest. Ikn also located in between two big cities..
Dude... indonesia could have 100 trillion GDP but can its government collect some of it to fund its expenses? Indonesian people don't like paying taxes. They don't trust their government. All businesses, big and small, cheat to reduce the taxes they pay, even though Indonesia has a fairly low tax rate. Increasing the tax rate even slightly will increase people's dissatisfaction
Indonesia akan selalu buruk dimata media barat karena ini negara mayoritas islam.

The main reason behind moving Indonesian capital from Jakarta to Nusantara is never because of Jakarta's sinking problem. While it's true that it's one of the reason, but it's not the key reason. The key reason is because economic development since our independence has always been only concentrated on Java island. So the moving of capital city will symbolize the moving from a Java-centrist development towards an Indonesian-centrist development. As a native Kalimantan, I really appreciate this move as it'll also bring more and more development to our neglected massive island (3rd largest in the world, as big as the country of Turkey).
I feel that even without moving the capital, development would be fairly even. What is needed is not moving the capital but greater autonomy to local governments. Salam dari sulawesi (translated by google translate)

Ini saatnya agar pembangunan lebih ke Indonesia sentris, kapan lagi kita bertindak. Jangan mau dikekang Barat. Otonomi yang ditambah juga berarti kesempatan buat pemprov pemkab dan pemkot untuk korup juga lebih besar, bayangkan ada berapa ratus pemerintahan daerah di Indonesia. Pengawasan dan wewenang dari pusat otomatis berkurang, artinya pengimplementasian UU di daerah semakin besar terjadi kemungkinan penyelewengan. Otonomi yang kita punya sudah cukup dan berimbang untuk kepentingan daerah dan pusat menurut saya. Kecuali Aceh di sana lebih besar kewenangan daerah.

The whole point of the new capital was to separate Jakarta’s role as a Economy and political city and also Indonesia was criticized to be Java centric for development (which is one of the reasons why Jokowi is hated) and with Nusantara created it will be Indonesia’s Washington DC and like the video stated Borneo (Kalimantan) will be better connectivity islands
Which one is the correct? you wanted to say IKN is aimed to function separately as political city, while Jakarta as economic city? So why IKN has to struggle to attract investors to build another economic center in the IKN?
The palace is already complete and so is the other buildings, You show old pictures to give the impression Indonesia's new capital city is far from finished
What other building you say? The airport is even far from finish 😂😂. What is already completed is just ceremonial Infrastructure to be use in independence day ceremony

Historically in Indonesia failed projects are often the most lucrative and financially successful. If you know what I mean. This capital relocation White Elephant boondoggle was predictable from day 0. There is nothing new or surprising about this story or Indonesia. It's the sad normal for the country.
Jakarta is overpopulated and overcrowded because people from other parts of Indonesia keep flocking there to get some of the economic crumbs. Why would they bother to do that? Because the economy in their hometown (especially in the rural areas) is not prospering. For example, the farmers in the rural areas are being neglected with lots of imported commodities that decrease the market price. Those farmers then stopped teaching their offspring how to farm and push them to work in other fields. This phenomenon forces them into urbanisation and Jakarta is the right place for that, economically. While this is the problem (of many other problems regarding economic inequality), the government instead chose to build a billion-dollars new capital city which many people see as a solution not solving the core of the problem, right? 🤷 Would the farmers prosper after building a new capital? Would people stop flocking to big cities and making them overpopulated? No. I don't see a connection between this newly-built capital city and the prosperity of the people. Do you? 👀 Although I see the prosperity of the big capital-owners after knowing the private companies investing would be given 100+ years of property right by the government 😂 What a joke!

Step by steo guide for new cities: 1. Anounce your new city 2. Give it a cool name like Neom, Nusantara or New admitstrstive Capitol 3. Implement SiFi concept art and throw around words like: smart city, AI, green, sustainable, economic groth 4. Gather money from naive investors 5. Start building without a real plan 6. Watch how corrupt officials steak significant portions of the budget 7. Run out of money 8. Put the projekt on hold Congratiulations. In just 8 simple steps you have bankruptet you country, humiliated yourself and your people and wasted more money than you would have needed to solve your initial problem.

Yes, that’s the problem. Western media always skews information about Asia, even though the reality on the ground can be contradicted if the bald man in the video were to visit the project and meet the head of the IKN authority in our country.
Jokowi's ego project, when with the same amount of money we can develop more cities throughout Indonesia. The strangest thing about this project is that the EIA came out first, and the research was done later. And for your information, the authorities arbitrarily shifted the zero point of the capital that had been researched by McKinsey because they were influenced by the words of a shaman. The failure of this project is the best thing I can hope for.
The whole project is the worst example of a top-down planning. Failure is inherent in a top-down planning like this. At the core, IKN is an artificial city, not an organic one like Jakarta and virtually all cities in Indonesia. It has many things in common with Arab Saudi's The Line. The failure to understand what makes an organic system more robust than an artificial system is the biggest failure in mega projects like this.
As a Malaysian (living in East Malaysia, Sabah).... I hope this mega project can be successful..... ** this will force Peninsular Malaysia to quickly develop Sabah/Sarawak..... ** Sabah/Sarawak is some what behind in development; compare to Peninsular Malaysia
If you develop Sabah/Sarawak it will take a lot of deforestation and that is not good for the environment and nature. Every year the federal government gives out to state governments grants for development. Ask your ministers what did they do with the money?! The grant you got ain't small! The responsibility to develop the states rest with the state government NOT Federal government!

Can someone please explain to me how it is environmentally friendly to build a huge city on top of thousands of hills, so that it's residents will pretty much depend on motorised means of transportation, levelling out some of those hill resulting in tons of fuel to be used for landscaping alone, deforesting vast areas and choosing a location which predestines air traffic as the sole method for the rest of the country to get there quickly. It's good that Indonesia starts to de-centralise with this project but stop the greenwashing please.
It’s better to expand your literacy and understanding before making inaccurate comments. Not all of Kalimantan is forested; it’s a stereotype when you don’t delve into the details. The island of Borneo is divided among three countries: Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei Darussalam. Specifically, Indonesian Kalimantan has quite advanced and developing industrial areas, as well as rapidly growing cities. Our new capital city is situated between two major cities, Balikpapan and Samarinda. On the other hand, the forested areas are protected and will not be destroyed, as our capital city is built on industrial eucalyptus plantations, not natural forests.
Once again, our new capital city is designed with the concept of a 'green city,' and not all hills will be flattened, as hills are an integral part of our city’s design. Additionally, it's important to clarify that motor vehicles or subsidized vehicles will not be allowed to pass through the IKN capital city. This is in line with the city’s concept and the presidential regulation prohibiting subsidized vehicles starting from 2030 (or sooner).
@@zzeroemissions3364 Sweetie, why so pressed? You just have to look once at the satellite images to see: Those plantations are also full of palm trees and sometimes, construction did reach into natural forests as well. "Not all of Kalimantan is forested; it’s a stereotype when you don’t delve into the details. The island of Borneo is divided among three countries: Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei Darussalam. Specifically, Indonesian Kalimantan has quite advanced and developing industrial areas, as well as rapidly growing cities." First of all, I know of the three countries on Borneo Island. Why do you think I wouldn't know that? Stop that foolishness. It's embarrassing. You've never met me. And would you bring that up anyway? Malaysia or Brunei Darussalam have literally nothing to do with this project, because it is the new Indonesian capital. That's right, Indonesian capital, not theirs. The hills and mountains of Kalimantan were in fact very much forested - until humans decided to cut or burn the natural forests down to make room for plantations or other economic projects. That's a fact. The decrease of natural forested areas on Kalimantan in the recent past are well documented, google it. Good bye. Live your life with your one-sided views :) "and not all hills will be flattened" oh and congratulations for repeating exactly what I said. If you know one thing about constructions, you'd know that moving around soil is an extremely energy consuming division of it. That's also one of the reason why battery-run vehicles aren't necessarily better for our environment as they are depended on components sourced from mining. If you want to have clean means of transportation in cities, you have to implement just three things: pedestrian friendly, cyclists friendly, very good network of public transport. It's actually a very easy recipe. But I doubt that the hills of Nusantara will be inviting to walk or cycle for a few km while communiting to work. But we will see about that.
@@unitedstatesoffugu I apologize if there were any words in my comment that were incorrect or possibly offensive, as I am using translation tools to comment. Your comments are also automatically translated into Indonesian, so I am trying to comment in Indonesian which will then be auto-translated into English on RUclips
And please understand that while there are indeed forested areas affected by the construction, these areas are primarily focused on the development of highways, main roads, and other access routes to IKN. Afterward, these areas will be reforested. Any development will have some environmental impact, but that does not mean this project is indifferent to the damage caused. In fact, it is a positive aspect, as the city's concept includes green spaces and reforestation programs mandated by the President. Moreover, any human-made development will inevitably have an impact. If we only look at Kalimantan without considering its own damaged areas due to development, it would be hypocritical. The reality is that human populations are growing, and land is becoming more expensive. Therefore, relocating the capital is the right step to balance the economy across our country with its hundreds of islands separated by oceans. Additionally, Kalimantan, specifically East Kalimantan, is the most suitable central location for the capital, as Java houses 60% of our population and is poorly integrated due to its location across islands. Furthermore, Java is dangerous as it is in the red zone of the Pacific Ring of Fire, making it unsuitable for future human habitation due to rising sea levels, active volcanoes, and declining land surface.
Id like these kinds of videos to provide SOLUTIONS rather than a never ending critiques for whats already being developed rn. Im indonesian and i dont care much about politics in indonesia but really despise these kinds of videos who are outsiders looking from the outside criticizing whats already been decided and is already on the motion. If they have posted these kinds of videos BEFORE the project has started, its a totally different story. So what exactly the purpose of this? To divide people more? Provoke them? To escalate anxiety among Indonesians? Do you have any real solution you can offer to our government? If you dont then shut up and take care of your own country divisive government.
This nusantara project indeed an expensive white elephant project of jokowi, and merit its critics. Especially when it is made without proper consultations with the people
@@wiry7428 Huh? Which community are you talking about? We, people from Kalimantan, support this development. Just because you failed in your choice doesn’t mean that 60% of us who support the continuing government and the new capital project are against it. You do not represent the entire community. And what about 'without consultation'? Of course, there was no consultation with the opposition. I am from Sepaku, which will be part of IKN, and all the residents of Sepaku support this major project. You should know that.
It’s called constructive criticism. The media will be the media. Our media does the same. Comments are just comments and its our job to come up with a solution. If you dislike a product you’d tell them the issues and their job to come up with the solution
@@zzeroemissions3364 Ask the Balek and Paser indigenous people who are evicted from their ancestral land for Pinnochio van Java's ambitions. You may have the privilege inside your air-conditioned resident in Sepaku (or Jakarta?) to comment like this. The proper consultation was not made. Remember how the Legislative made the Law of the IKN only in 43 days? the so-called "public consultation" with the Faculty of Law of the University of Mulawarman was rushed, with the draft of the new capital Law was only issued minutes before the "consultation". Funny because you say in binary context that the consultations for the new capital can only be made with govt's allies and not the opposition. Sounds like authoritarianism to me.

Cutting down forests and having spent so much money but there is still no clarity on the fate of this new capital. This shows the absence of a thorough plan. The center of government could actually be moved to PIK 2 island where the costs would definitely be cheaper and there would be no need to destroy forests in Borneo

Nusantara was a geographical name for a place that mostly comprised of most of Indonesia's territory today. The name was used by ancient kingdoms in Java island, including the Majapahit Empire which is the largest empire in Southeast Asia's history. The name was later adopted for the new capital city of Indonesia.3 Mar 2024
But there's also a case that the name 'Nusantara' did not originate from Java, but rather from East Kalimantan itself. Nusantara was the original name of Kutai before the area was named Kutai, which later developed into the Kutai Kertanegara Kingdom, established in the 14th century. This view was put forward by Samarinda historian Muhammad Sarip. He explained that the name 'Nusantara' itself is influenced by Sanskrit (a language from India). However, the word 'nusantara' has become a place name (toponym) for the area in eastern Kalimantan which was later named Kutai, namely before the Kutai Kertanegara Kingdom was established in 1300 AD and lasted for centuries after (compare with the existence of Majapahit 1293-1527 AD).
I read somewhere on the internet that the purpose of the new capital city is "not to free Jakarta from the capital's problem, but to free the capital from Jakarta's problems (bukan untuk membebaskan Jakarta dari permasalahan ibukota, namun membebaskan ibu kota dari permasalahan Jakarta)." While it definitely makes sense, Jakarta will still have all of its problems.
no it doesn't you believe too much propaganda. Thats what they say about highways, oh they always hurt the poorest the most. Because the poorest don't want to go anywhere fast.

33 billion for a city of 2.5 million is insanely cheap by some measures. -For context - the World Cup stadium in Qatar costed 50+ billion and was basically only used for a week.-

Idk where I got the previous number from, but I just remember being mindblown by the fact that a one month event costed more than the GDP of entire countries, including that of: Portugal, Greece, New Zealand, Kazakhstan etc. Anyway... instead of the 2022 world cup 6.6 such cities could've been built, with the total population almost 6 times that of Qatar or more than twice the size of New York!

You get a fair point. Moving to a new capital does NOT remove the old problems on Jakarta
It's disappointing to see the Wall Street Journal's video on Nusantara presenting outdated footage and misleading information. Contrary to the claim that Nusantara threatens the rainforest, it is being built in an industrial forest area, which already poses a risk to the rainforest regardless of the new capital's construction. The development of Nusantara includes significant efforts toward sustainability and environmental protection. Accurate reporting is crucial for an informed discussion on this important project.
Also the claim that Nusantara is being built "in the middle of nowhere" is inaccurate. Nusantara is strategically located near Balikpapan and Samarinda, both well-connected by toll roads, with plans to link these to Nusantara. These cities will support the new capital. While it's true that local communities face displacement issues, this is a recurring problem due to government incompetence. Instead of halting the project, we should focus on finding solutions to support local communities. Discussions on forums like Skyscrapercity offer more updated and credible information compared to major media outlets like the Wall Street Journal.

They don't mention that Java accounts for 50% of the population so java centric makes sense
Statistically, it does makes sense, but in practice this promote more inequality to the already diverse ethnic groups and their separated regions, especially the eastern side of Indonesia that still underdeveloped from all sectors. Not to mentions, the rice farming culture of the Javanese that lead to unsustainable food policies that replaced the original diets of the eastern Indonesia region that increased a demand for rice more than it should be, while local farmer break their bone in the the rice field without ever gain more income or even cheaper fertilizers. Instead of addressing the root problem, the government tend to choose short term fix by importing rice from Vietnam and others. Also, I lived in West Java which are the most populated province of Indonesia, but when we travel to Southern West Java, it's still underdeveloped since the Soeharto's regime compared to the northern Java, perhaps it's neglected due to mountainous terrains even though it had fertile soils for tea, coffee, rice, and vegetable farming.
Java centric gak masalah asalkan pembangunannya bukan dari menyedot kekayaan daerah lain utk bangun jawa. Kekayaan tambang2 mibyak, batubara, dll di sumatra dan derah lainnya hanya dinikmati jawa.

This project was already a risk when the president annouced it back in 2019. The initial deadline was 2024 for phase one. But then covid happened and all progress must stop for a while, but the president insisted on the 2024 deadline. Resulting a very rushed progress and poor planning. Combined with investors that cancelled their investments and indonesia's own economy were in a progress to bounce back after covid, so they're running out of money as well.
So now the government's move is they are planning to increase tax percentage, and tax something that wasn't taxed before. + jokowi put his son as vice president after him so things like this would likely only the beginning of a 5 year journey of economic downfall

Indonesia has $1.5 trillion gdp, with economy growth 5% . Their annual budget is $200+ billion per year, also this city is long term planning.. currently the phase 1 (government area) will soon be completed. there is $ 3.7 billion investment from local companies and will likely to increase since the letter of interest.

Dude... indonesia could have 100 trillion GDP but can its government collect some of it to fund its expenses? Indonesian people don't like paying taxes. They don't trust their government. All businesses, big and small, cheat to reduce the taxes they pay, even though Indonesia has a fairly low tax rate. Increasing the tax rate even slightly will increase people's dissatisfaction

The main reason behind moving Indonesian capital from Jakarta to Nusantara is never because of Jakarta's sinking problem. While it's true that it's one of the reason, but it's not the key reason.
The key reason is because economic development since our independence has always been only concentrated on Java island. So the moving of capital city will symbolize the moving from a Java-centrist development towards an Indonesian-centrist development.
As a native Kalimantan, I really appreciate this move as it'll also bring more and more development to our neglected massive island (3rd largest in the world, as big as the country of Turkey).
I feel that even without moving the capital, development would be fairly even. What is needed is not moving the capital but greater autonomy to local governments.

Historically in Indonesia failed projects are often the most lucrative and financially successful. If you know what I mean. This capital relocation White Elephant boondoggle was predictable from day 0. There is nothing new or surprising about this story or Indonesia. It's the sad normal for the country.
If this capital city success, the citizens will pay a huge price for a 100 coming years. But, they have to pay for it when jakarta is sinking
Jakarta is overpopulated and overcrowded because people from other parts of Indonesia keep flocking there to get some of the economic crumbs. Why would they bother to do that? Because the economy in their hometown (especially in the rural areas) is not prospering.
For example, the farmers in the rural areas are being neglected with lots of imported commodities that decrease the market price. Those farmers then stopped teaching their offspring how to farm and push them to work in other fields. This phenomenon forces them into urbanisation and Jakarta is the right place for that, economically.
While this is the problem (of many other problems regarding economic inequality), the government instead chose to build a billion-dollars new capital city which many people see as a solution not solving the core of the problem, right? 🤷
Would the farmers prosper after building a new capital? Would people stop flocking to big cities and making them overpopulated? No.
I don't see a connection between this newly-built capital city and the prosperity of the people. Do you? 👀
Although I see the prosperity of the big capital-owners after knowing the private companies investing would be given 100+ years of property right by the government 😂 What a joke!

3. Implement SiFi concept art and throw around words like: smart city, AI, green, sustainable, economic groth
4. Gather money from naive investors
5. Start building without a real plan
6. Watch how corrupt officials steak significant portions of the budget
7. Run out of money
8. Put the projekt on hold

Jokowi's ego project, when with the same amount of money we can develop more cities throughout Indonesia. The strangest thing about this project is that the EIA came out first, and the research was done later. And for your information, the authorities arbitrarily shifted the zero point of the capital that had been researched by McKinsey because they were influenced by the words of a shaman. The failure of this project is the best thing I can hope for.
The whole project is the worst example of a top-down planning. Failure is inherent in a top-down planning like this. At the core, IKN is an artificial city, not an organic one like Jakarta and virtually all cities in Indonesia. It has many things in common with Arab Saudi's The Line. The failure to understand what makes an organic system more robust than an artificial system is the biggest failure in mega projects like this.

Can someone please explain to me how it is environmentally friendly to build a huge city on top of thousands of hills, so that it's residents will pretty much depend on motorised means of transportation, levelling out some of those hill resulting in tons of fuel to be used for landscaping alone, deforesting vast areas and choosing a location which predestines air traffic as the sole method for the rest of the country to get there quickly.
It's good that Indonesia starts to de-centralise with this project but stop the greenwashing please.
It’s better to expand your literacy and understanding before making inaccurate comments. Not all of Kalimantan is forested; it’s a stereotype when you don’t delve into the details. The island of Borneo is divided among three countries: Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei Darussalam. Specifically, Indonesian Kalimantan has quite advanced and developing industrial areas, as well as rapidly growing cities. Our new capital city is situated between two major cities, Balikpapan and Samarinda. On the other hand, the forested areas are protected and will not be destroyed, as our capital city is built on industrial eucalyptus plantations, not natural forests.
Once again, our new capital city is designed with the concept of a 'green city,' and not all hills will be flattened, as hills are an integral part of our city’s design. Additionally, it's important to clarify that motor vehicles or subsidized vehicles will not be allowed to pass through the IKN capital city. This is in line with the city’s concept and the presidential regulation prohibiting subsidized vehicles starting from 2030 (or sooner).
@@zzeroemissions3364 Sweetie, why so pressed? You just have to look once at the satellite images to see: Those plantations are also full of palm trees and sometimes, construction did reach into natural forests as well.
"Not all of Kalimantan is forested; it’s a stereotype when you don’t delve into the details. The island of Borneo is divided among three countries: Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei Darussalam. Specifically, Indonesian Kalimantan has quite advanced and developing industrial areas, as well as rapidly growing cities."
First of all, I know of the three countries on Borneo Island. Why do you think I wouldn't know that? Stop that foolishness. It's embarrassing. You've never met me. And would you bring that up anyway? Malaysia or Brunei Darussalam have literally nothing to do with this project, because it is the new Indonesian capital. That's right, Indonesian capital, not theirs.
The hills and mountains of Kalimantan were in fact very much forested - until humans decided to cut or burn the natural forests down to make room for plantations or other economic projects. That's a fact. The decrease of natural forested areas on Kalimantan in the recent past are well documented, google it.
Good bye. Live your life with your one-sided views :)
"and not all hills will be flattened" oh and congratulations for repeating exactly what I said. If you know one thing about constructions, you'd know that moving around soil is an extremely energy consuming division of it. That's also one of the reason why battery-run vehicles aren't necessarily better for our environment as they are depended on components sourced from mining. If you want to have clean means of transportation in cities, you have to implement just three things: pedestrian friendly, cyclists friendly, very good network of public transport. It's actually a very easy recipe. But I doubt that the hills of Nusantara will be inviting to walk or cycle for a few km while communiting to work. But we will see about that.
@@unitedstatesoffugu I apologize if there were any words in my comment that were incorrect or possibly offensive, as I am using translation tools to comment.

And please understand that while there are indeed forested areas affected by the construction, these areas are primarily focused on the development of highways, main roads, and other access routes to IKN. Afterward, these areas will be reforested. Any development will have some environmental impact, but that does not mean this project is indifferent to the damage caused. In fact, it is a positive aspect, as the city's concept includes green spaces and reforestation programs mandated by the President. Moreover, any human-made development will inevitably have an impact. If we only look at Kalimantan without considering its own damaged areas due to development, it would be hypocritical. The reality is that human populations are growing, and land is becoming more expensive. Therefore, relocating the capital is the right step to balance the economy across our country with its hundreds of islands separated by oceans. Additionally, Kalimantan, specifically East Kalimantan, is the most suitable central location for the capital, as Java houses 60% of our population and is poorly integrated due to its location across islands. Furthermore, Java is dangerous as it is in the red zone of the Pacific Ring of Fire, making it unsuitable for future human habitation due to rising sea levels, active volcanoes, and declining land surface.

Just because you failed in your choice doesn’t mean that 60% of us who support the continuing government and the new capital project are against it. You do not represent the entire community. And what about 'without consultation'? Of course, there was no consultation with the opposition. I am from Sepaku, which will be part of IKN, and all the residents of Sepaku support this major project. You should know that.
It’s called constructive criticism. The media will be the media. Our media does the same. Comments are just comments and its our job to come up with a solution. If you dislike a product you’d tell them the issues and their job to come up with the solution
@@zzeroemissions3364 Ask the Balek and Paser indigenous people who are evicted from their ancestral land for Pinnochio van Java's ambitions. You may have the privilege inside your air-conditioned resident in Sepaku (or Jakarta?) to comment like this.
The proper consultation was not made. Remember how the Legislative made the Law of the IKN only in 43 days? the so-called "public consultation" with the Faculty of Law of the University of Mulawarman was rushed, with the draft of the new capital Law was only issued minutes before the "consultation". Funny because you say in binary context that the consultations for the new capital can only be made with govt's allies and not the opposition. Sounds like authoritarianism to me.
Indonesia adalah negara besar sudah saatnya berdiri diatas kaki sendiri negara merdeka dan berdaulat tunjukan kepada dunia kalau kita bisa.merdeka merdeka
Cutting down forests and having spent so much money but there is still no clarity on the fate of this new capital. This shows the absence of a thorough plan. The center of government could actually be moved to PIK 2 island where the costs would definitely be cheaper and there would be no need to destroy forests in Borneo
It’s better to expand your literacy and understanding before making inaccurate comments. Not all of Kalimantan is forested; it’s a stereotype when you don’t delve into the details. The island of Borneo is divided among three countries: Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei Darussalam. Specifically, Indonesian Kalimantan has quite advanced and developing industrial areas, as well as rapidly growing cities. Our new capital city is situated between two major cities, Balikpapan and Samarinda. On the other hand, the forested areas are protected and will not be destroyed, as our capital city is built on industrial eucalyptus plantations, not natural forests.
@@zzeroemissions3364 What a naive thoughts. With the new capital, soon the forested area of Kalimantan and its indigenous people will be perished. The capital will grow, and with habits of mismanagement like in Jakarta, soon the corruption and devastation will engulf Kalimantan. Haven't you heard that floods are getting more and more frequent in East Kalimantan since the development of the New Capital? Probably you have heard, but chose to cherrypick the facts
we dont support this Capital City PRROJECT. It makes us suffer. All that money should be used in another project that gives direct benefit to us Indonesian citizen
we?????????
how are you?🤣

@@ahmadindra2108 oioioi, ente mikirrr, ekonomi negara ini 60% nya hanya berasal dari Jawa ditambah dgn populasi 57% jumlah penduduk indonesia tinggal dipulau Jawa! enta tau? pulau provinsi diluar jawa menempati pdb terendah dan termiskin dibanding jawa..? Pulau Jawa dengan luas yang taksebanding dgn jumlah penduduk, dan masuk kateogri Pulau terpadat didunia. kalau cuma mikir dri segi masih luas bro berarti literasi & wawasan perlu diupdate, pokoknya inti masalah pulau jawa tidak aman dari segi keamanan & lingkngan alam, dgn Pulau Jawa memiliki banyak gunung berapi aktif sebagai zona "Cincin Api Pasifik" , itu membuat tektonik yang mengelilingi Samudra Pasifik, di mana banyak gempa bumi dan aktivitas vulkanik paling membahayakan dibanding pulau lain diluar pulau jawa/zona ring of fire seperti Kalimantan, ini baru yg paling cocok untuk permukiman manusia,, apalagi yg namanya ibukota negara.
Cutting so many trees in the name of building a 'sustainable' city is just absurd and is paradoxical in of itself.
You western think for short term, we eastern think for long term.
Nusantara was a geographical name for a place that mostly comprised of most of Indonesia's territory today. The name was used by ancient kingdoms in Java island, including the Majapahit Empire which is the largest empire in Southeast Asia's history. The name was later adopted for the new capital city of Indonesia.3 Mar 2024
But there's also a case that the name 'Nusantara' did not originate from Java, but rather from East Kalimantan itself. Nusantara was the original name of Kutai before the area was named Kutai, which later developed into the Kutai Kertanegara Kingdom, established in the 14th century. This view was put forward by Samarinda historian Muhammad Sarip. He explained that the name 'Nusantara' itself is influenced by Sanskrit (a language from India). However, the word 'nusantara' has become a place name (toponym) for the area in eastern Kalimantan which was later named Kutai, namely before the Kutai Kertanegara Kingdom was established in 1300 AD and lasted for centuries after (compare with the existence of Majapahit 1293-1527 AD).
I read somewhere on the internet that the purpose of the new capital city is "not to free Jakarta from the capital's problem, but to free the capital from Jakarta's problems (bukan untuk membebaskan Jakarta dari permasalahan ibukota, namun membebaskan ibu kota dari permasalahan Jakarta)."
While it definitely makes sense, Jakarta will still have all of its problems.
Who and how many want to invest in that very corrupt country? Corruption Perception Index (CPI) figure shows where Indonesia stands.
We're actually honest here and see corruption as corruption instead of calling it "lobbying".
Absolutely there will be no investors to invest in this project. Good luck to indonesian citizens to pay more taxes
This kind of top-down planning always end up hurting the poorest.
no it doesn't you believe too much propaganda. Thats what they say about highways, oh they always hurt the poorest the most. Because the poorest don't want to go anywhere fast.
@@davidanalyst671 it' a different opinion, not a propaganda...
to be fair, no cares about the forest anyway,
if we care, that forest should still be a jungle, not a monoplant farm
