    As a Jakarta resident this is quite depressing tbh because there doesn't seem to be much hope for this city, especially compared to your other videos where cities like Cairo and Lagos are on the rise and have improved significantly with a bright future ahead of them.
    Personally, I think Jakarta's problems is way too much that abandoning ship is the way to go. There needs to be significant investment in other cities and open up proper job opportunities there instead of them crowding in the Jabodetabek metropolitan area where most of the jobs are.
    Personally, I think moving the capital to Borneo is a good idea. Once the bureacrats and government offices are relocated, that would mean Jakarta can focus on being the financial capital instead of serving two functions which the landmass can't support.
    But yeah, despite the overall depressing state that Jakarta is in there is still a lot to be hopeful about like the MRT system, the LRT, as well as planned water treatment facilities so that people won't have to pump their water from underground.
    Excellent video regardless :)

    It is actually very eye opening for me as I live in Jakarta and this place might only be as far as 5 to 6 miles from my neighborhood, the more horrifying is the fact that not many of us are aggressively informed about the problem.
    We know Jakarta is sitting below the sea level and that it is sinking a few centimetre every year, but nobody really brings the awareness and proofs that not only it's already happening, it happens fast.
    Our media is obsessed with politics, religions and how to combine them, when there's a literal place not far from our houses where a man can fish on the street.

      Well you yourself are obsessed with life of celebrity arent you? The media you are talking about is probably just infotainment news hence what you hear is gossip. I don't even live in jakarta but i know this problem since about 7-9 years ago. Many of jakarta citizens should have known this right when the idea of moving the capital to borneo first be announced. It has nothing to do with the mainstream media be discussing other topics beside the sinking of the city. It clearly has nothing to do with religion, politic, and obsession. We have been informed about this sinking issues for years and the local govt also have done their best to solve the problem as we can see in this video. What we as the citizens must do are to cooperate and protect the environment instead of keep on complaining

    To avoid confusion:
    Jakarta SCR (also the province of Jakarta SCR) population is only 10.5 million (2020)
    Jakarta Metropolitan, consists of Jakarta SCR and satellite cities from two neighboring provinces:
    Jakarta SCR (Jakarta SCR province)
    Bogor (West Java province)
    Depok (West Java province)
    Bekasi (West Java province)
    Tangerang (Banten province)
    South Tangerang (Banten province)
    Total population is 33.5 million (2020). Indonesians call this metropolitan as 'Jabodetabek'

    As a person that born & live on Borneo for decades, yes, this part of the area is quite safe. No major disasters. The only problem is smog problem caused by farming's open burning.
    We do hope the change of Indonesia capital will means real development on this island, including stimulating development in neighbouring countries (Sabah, Sarawak & Brunei) - which frankly, are quite falling behind compared to other places. Despite the size of Borneo island, there isn't any real modern transit system available, this place is still the largely backwater countryplace... If you're looking for low living cost & quiet place to live, currently Borneo is a nice spot. If you looking for advance modern hightech living, eh...... there aren't really anything interesting going on around here.

    Well the Dutch actually built a good system, however many of the canals being filled in since the 90s. When I was in jkt for the first time, the population was around 7 million in 89. The new airport was built on farmland in the west of city. Now is surrounded by urbanisation. Consisting traffic was already horrible in the 80s. The crash in 97 was already signs of what to come

      Ehm, is that really a question? Amsterdam is not directly at the sea, it sits behind a broad patch of dunes where it also gets its water from. The water level in the city is 40 cm below sea level, and it relies on Dutch water engineering to keep it dry. The city had its origin when a dam was built across the mouth of a river, precisely because the poldering in the area had caused the land to sink. The dam prevented the river from eroding the land further, and the silt building up behind it is the ground on which the city stands. I don't see protective dunes and soil-retaining dams in Jakarta. Perhaps the Dutch cheated a bit when they dug the canals and left away the rest of the system.

      @@kimyeonahchannel for a start, Indonesia is along the equator, just slightly south. Equatorial tropics receives heavy rainfall throughout the year. Temperate countries much further north or south like Netherlands do not receive as much rainfall.
      Indonesia has much coastline and mountains, cold air from the highlands and moisture-rich warm sea breeze meet constantly to produce rain. Same for places like Brazil.
      Indonesia experiences monsoon seasons as well.
      Discharging rainfall directly into the sea via straight concrete canals is the perfect recipe for disaster, where groundwater is not able to recover its critical levels. The huge population and unregulated groundwater extraction increases the problem multiple folds. The vacuum hence caused the ground to sink constantly, with increasing concrete high-rise buildings adding to the pressure.

    The biggest problem in Indonesia is that they are not the same people. They are tribesmen of more than 1000 races. Conflict, ideology, way of life often clash with each other.
    Its like making british and french live together. It might work, but it will never be perfect.
