Great video! Just want to let you know you need to switch the locations of Sydney and Melbourne! As a Melbourne girl myself I'm quite proud to be from the south of Australia 😄
new zealand
Go storm
Welp uhhh idk what else i can say for this but i guess enjoy it.
His videos are FULL of errors like these, i cant believe they dont double check things before uploading. I wonder how much more misinformation there is in this channel
I guess that how the people from north hemisphere see Sydney and Melbourne. 😂
i born and live in java, i don't have any problem with this capital city relocating, all i wish is the developer will be much much much more concern about environmental issues, Kalimantan is too precious for us, not only for Indonesia but for the earth and the entire population, Kalimantan is blessed with a beautiful rain forest and the diversity in it, i just hope human greediness doesn't destroy it's true wealth just like we destroy java island, mega city with it's skyscraper is nothing compared to Kalimantan's priceless nature.
Same, Ive had my concerns with the move because i fear that the population moving in could stress Kalimantan’s already stressed ecosystems
Industri/ekonomi masih di pulau jawa, pemindahan ibu kota bukan berarti dalam semua hal akan kesana kecuali pemerintahan. Tingkatkan ekonomi di sumatra sulawesi papua NTT NTB BALI tak perlu khawatir akan hal pemindahan penduduk.
Unfortunately, palm forrest already destroying borneo island. Hope relocating of this capital city can also fix that problems
y a
There is simply no other way it will happen. The new capital will destroy the rainforest around it, then they will destroy further tracts for palm oil, then they will build many high ways to speed up the destruction. The very project is a catastrophe, and it is impossible for it to be any other way. All hail money! Unfortunately, the ecological consciousness of most Indonesians is nill. Look at the comment section - mostly support, "oh the economy" and no thought of nature.
The Indonesians are lovely and friendly ❤️🇮🇩 from Laos 🇱🇦
I live in one of the Malaysian states of Borneo Island and the capital relocation certainly caught me attention when it was first announced. While I acknowledge and am aware of all the considerations that took place for the move, I really hope that the ecological system in Kalimantan would be well-preserved and not be destroyed in the name of development.
Its already destroyed and would be destroyed further. greed people convert the jungle into palm plantation, and now they will plant buildings.
Hahahhah you are so jealous 😂😂😂😂

Since i'm from West borneo myself. I can assure you that Borneo is like a wet dream for tropical city designer because most tropical islands are small and dangerous due to volcanic activities and earthquake, Borneo never had any of that (i live here for 20 years and never in my life have i experienced an earthquake). However, enviromental problem caused by palm oil industry can already be seen across the island. So here's hoping that moving a huge administration center like *The state capital* would see more regulations actually being enforced more effectively.
There's a silver lining here. Once smog season starts and the wind direction blows towards Indonesia, the new capital WILL be affected, like the rest of Kalimantan. Will be fun to see the political elites' reaction. 😈
Yes, I know I'm evil.
@@marioprawirosudiro7301 I dont know, they have been affected all years too though. It wont be anything new to them too.
Last time i check, it was neighboring countries who are losing their cool dealing about it.
@@aldyhabibie9717 Ah, right. I often forget that Jakarta itself is already a very polluted city.
Well, if they bring all their gas-guzzlers to the new capital, maybe the smog would double? Because of the periodic haze from the jungle? Fingers crossed.
While the smog from oil/fuel vs smog from burning tree/forest sucks, they do 'taste' differently.
If anything for Jakartans that will be moving there, they may consider that as improvement.
Do y'all have any other forms of natural disasters like hurricanes and typhoons ?
Indonesia has been one of the more fascinating countries to me. It blows my mind how they managed to make islands the span of Europe a country
they don't make Island.
@@r3dpowel796 read the comment again, slowly
Some of the territories didn't agree to be part of Indonesia and there is still a lot of tension and even conflicts. But it is amazing how they managed to bring so many really different and diverse groups under one umbrella called "Pancasila" which is the unifying principle of the republic.
@@r3dpowel796 duh
The main islands are really huge, we barely noticed we're on an island, its more than enough to build several kingdoms, and eventually a republic
I'm from Samarinda, there are some people here concerned about the environmental impact of moving the capital to Borneo, not to mention the place they're moving it to is pretty much still a forest. Borneo, especially in east Borneo is getting hotter and hotter every single day. I just hope they don't completely annihilate the forests to make room for housing communities since there's probably going to be a huge spur of people coming here...
There is no other option . Have you seen the traffic in Jakarta - Bekasi-Bogor-Puncak route ? Drivers , commuters , babies snd students struggling during 3-4long wait . Vehicles moving inch by inch .. the smog OMG. Thank goodness some toll touted have been rectified to ease travel , but Bekasi, Bogor still worst areas yo travel to .
Every place in the country owes to each other and the government their patience and support in change . Relocation is necessary .
I just hope the population could drop sharply so that the pressure on the environment could be releaved
@@UU-gc2cr what a loser
As a lot of people have already said, a capital relocation is necessary to keep Jakarta from exploding from all the people in it. I know the environment is important, I've in fact followed things like climate development for a while and know a lot about it but Indonesia is still a developing country with many of it's citizens, while not exactly in poverty aren't fully developed. Right now a new capital is needed.
You’ve one of the best channels in UA-cam and I hope it can be multilingual. The way you collect and present information is beyond perfect. I am a huge fan. Prayers and respect to your work.
Another fun facts is:
Indonesian Government since Independence (1945) already moved the capital city 5 times in 5 years due to political and military instability:
Jakarta (1945-1946)
Yogyakarta (1946-1948)
Bukittinggi (1948-1949)
Yogyakarta (1949-1950)
Jakarta (1950-...)
So, If the government declare the capital city is Nusantara by 2024 ,then Indonesia government already moved its capital city 6 times. I believe that is the world record for this achievement 😁

Hopefully it doesn't cause a huge population growth and thus a negative impact on the environment. Living in Borneo, I've seen how municipalities have allowed destruction of the forest due to greed (even seeing seeing government officials legally change their race to acquire native land). What was once a beautiful Forrest when I was a child, has rapidly become a barren land or monoculture 😢
exactly
that's what im afraid of.... Indonesian gov't can be very corupt and backwards... usually at the cost of its citizens
My family owns a company in Balikpapan, over the years, I've noticed the area become more polluted, dirty, and filled with trash as more people move there for jobs in mining or oil drilling. It's sad to see.
Sabar bang
I think thats more better than a forest, before people complaint about forest and animal they should thinking a human first, you want that people lived in borneo taking care of forest and animal for free? For your oxygen? Yo you need to learn how american ruin their forest for industry, for money, what they did is right.

Thanks. That was very interesting and informative.
Awesome video! I spent a month in Indonesia, Bogor and Jakarta seen a president escort was pretty cool, love the country and and interesting culture
The CG rendering for the new capital city looked really amazing! Indonesia is a HUGE country (with the population twice of that of Japan's!!!). This means that the gravity of South East Asia will move to Borneo island. I'd like to visit the new capital city one day when the travel restrictions are lifted.

Awesome knowledgeable video. Thanks for sharing :)
That was a great show, thank you.
An interesting take i heard on this was that this is also a geopolitical move, by moving the capital to east kalimantan, Indonesia opens up an eastern corridor that will be able to take away influence from the straits of Malacca. This is in line with the history of the empires in Java and the influence the straits of Malacca they are subjected to. By creating this eastern corridor they allow for trade from north asia to flow downwards to Taiwan, the Philippines, and finally through eastern Indonesia thereby decreasing the dependence of Indonesia in the straits.
I think so aswell because long time ago there is a kingdom that control that eastern corridor, I forgot the name btw, and that kingdom is strong

Kazakhstan -- from Alamaty (on the southeast border) to Aqmola (renamed Astana, in the north-central interior) in 1997 (and renamed again to Nur-Sultan last year).
South Korea -- from Seoul to Sejong, which is in progress and supposed to be completed in 2030.

Man I love Indonesia, everything related to this country is interesting and amazing, such a big country with a huge diversity. I actually have been trying to travel there but Covid has ruined my plans. Hopefully i can get there sooner. And of course i will visit Jakarta, even though most indonesians have told me not to because "there's nothing to see, is just a city", but I'm sure it will be a great experience to meet the urban lifestyle of Jakarta.
i'm indonesian myself and i can confirm. if you do visit indonesia eventually, just don't visit jakarta. it's a city of depression. go to bali instead and if you have extra time you might as well travel to the new capital in borneo. honorable mention: if you're looking for more nature scenery, these places should be in your bucket list:
1. raja ampat (papua island)
2. lombok (there's a new motogp track being built there)
3. borneo
4. wakatobi (sulawesi)
5. pulo dua (sulawesi)

as an Indonesian, I agree with all the problems that you stated and I also support the government to move the capital city to a new area because it can spread out our country development not only focus on one island.
What is more important - the "development" (I hate this buzzword) of a single nation for its own sake, mostly meaning more money for the already filthy riches, OR the last large tract of primary rainforest in Sundaland that has the intrinsic value for the whole humanity? When all is said and done, Indonesians as a nation don't value their natural treasures and the immense biodiversity very much, if at all. It's like nature is only seen via its economic value. Rainforests = "undeveloped barren land" etc. Stories of what stopped the destruction on Siberut and of recent provincial vs central governments' disagreements in Papua are very telling of the mentality.
@sehhi vooty yeah even our president always from java so i think its smart to move it to kalimantan or sulawesi
@@fistboy5857 ??? There is no correlation between capital in java island and the origin of indonesian president always from java. Why our president always from java??

The “building new capital city” thing can always be a hit or miss, it can end up like Brasilia or Abuja and look pretty nice, or be like Naypyidaw and be completely empty
Edit: I know Indonesia's new capital most likely won't end up like Emptyidaw I was just saying theres only two ways new capitals go 😂
Also, a lot of Brazilians are telling me Brasilia sucks, really? looked pretty nice to me but I'll take an actual Brazilians word for it I guess
@TigersedFN Begging for views is not the way to go.
@TigersedFN you're gonna get more hate than actually trying
@TigersedFN come on man that’s not how you do it
Another problem with naypyidaw was that it was pretty unpopular among the public as well to be built by the military dictator. And the dictatorship built the capital more for themselves rather than any people.
Both these elements seem to be absent in Indonesia's case.
Or Astana.
I know its hard to summarize in 20 minutes the issues of a giant diverse country's capital that most westerners know little about, but believe me the government is more concerned about 'eruptions' like the uprising in 1998 that overthrew the Suharto dictatorship than volcanos, that deserves at least a mention. Also bears to mention that Balikpapan (near the proposed new capital) is a growing center of the oil industry in Indonesia probably not a coincidence.
Java economy will collapse without borneo. Its a wise move to move capital to borneo. Borneo is the major producer of coal, gas, oil, cpo, timber worth 200 billion usd/year GDP
@@JojohnWick all the things that aren't sustainable and will be a costly dependancy....
@@JojohnWick Not really. Indonesia is a newly industrialized country. Much of the economy is centered around industry and trade in Java. The fact is, Kalimantan is heavily subsidized.

How do you know my country more than I do..
Very interesting! Going to Bali in a few weeks... love this extra bit of insight into the country!
You do a great job !
Indonesia should be extra careful with the location of the new capital. Study the situation of Kuala Lumpur, the flood plain and basin problems. Ensure sufficient waterways for flood water handling. Plan a “planned city” with all the necessary underground conduits to cater to transportation, utilities, communication & waste disposal network for next 100 years. Good Luck !
The area for the new city is not a coastal flood plain. One reason for the location. It's a bit hilly. I am sure that area will become flattened over time.
This plan actually originated from our first president and founding father, Mr. Soekarno.
If you worry about flood, borneo island geographycally surround by rivers.
Speaking of infrastucture that man made, jakarta is sinking already, and very polluted, the jungle of concreate.
Yeah I wish the govt hire some city planning experts from like, Netherlands maybe
@Nasrud Nasrud no… the best is in borneo, the center of Indonesia, Why Singapore? Singapore is small land country they will have more complicated area problem in the future, Think about national diversity Borneo is the best one
@Nasrud Nasrud its better to move away from major port/trade city and create new one I guess. Over the time also can be benificial for whole Borneo Island (Sabah, Sarawak, Brunei) if Indonesia decide to build a major port at Kalimantan, only if the infrastructure for transportation across the Borneo island connecting other countries has been complete.

Hi! Im from indonesia and currently live in jakarta. I was shocked when u state all the problems that jakarta has and it is much worse than i thought. I enjoyed living in jakarta because of the ease access to public transportation and the employee's wages that keep on growing every year. From my pov, flooding problem and traffic issues is slowly decreasing because of some contruction and regulation that the government made to prevent these problem. But i think moving the capital city to a new location is a good move from our government. Java is already pretty good economically so we need to maintain excellent economic growth for other island as well and that problem will be solved by this. Thank you for making this video!

I'm from Malaysia. I believe that Sabah and Sarawak (Bornean regions in Federation of Malaysia) as well as Brunei will obtain much opportunity to progress and benefit after the relocation of Indonesian capital city to Kalimantan.
And i heard that your PM wants to be included in the process of making the new capital city. That's brilliant actually, i believe the development in eastern part of Malaysia is significantly lesser than the western part of malaysia. With our capital moves, people projected the traffic between two borders and the economical impact throughout those three countries in the island will risen up. That also means, there'll be a better infrastructure since our president has planned the high speed train to be build in the new capital.
@@mattardyantoriyadi you've got the point, the progress in East Malaysia is way left behind those in the Peninsular part. With this upcoming relocation, hopefully will be able to boost and locate Borneo in the eyes of the world though it's the 3rd largest island, not much is well known about us.

Shifting the capital timing is quite good. Well done.
i'm live in jakarta and you are right, there's a lot of issues here. i agree to move the capital city in Kalimantan, because jakarta is too crowded right now. hope this moving can make people spread out more and not centralized in Jakarta/Java it self
As a person from Myanmar, the best reason we think the military moved the capital is because of their need for safety in an environment when they were increasingly unpopular. They wanted to be safe and they've even built multiple safeguards into Naypyidaw's design such as the 20-30 lane highways which double as landing strips for military planes in case of an emergency. The military has done what it wanted with selfish and little thought like change the country's name, cancel currency that was not a multiple of the dictator's lucky number etc. So it's safe to say climate change concerns would have been insignificant or even negligible in their thought process
Indonesia too. Moving capital to Kalimantan restricts the mobilization of mass from West Java where all the usual protesters coming from. Still, Jakarta is sinking very rapidly and spend billions on money on it is just a waste at this point
Bingo lol the same thing is about to happen in Indonesia, most protesters are in Java since 60% population is there and it's a central economy hub.
Let's see how many subs I get from this comment.............
didnt one of them change the side of the road burma drives on due to a witch doctor?
wait, i thought they moved it so they could deal with those separatist groups up north mor easily
The location of new capital is good, east kalimantan is the most developed kalimantan province in indonesia and one of the most developed province in indonesia with very High HDI, and GDP and also the province with the largest economy throughout all borneo, yes all borneo including malaysian serawak and sabah and brunei. Balikpapan and Samarinda, the cities that are bordering this capital are also two largest cities in the entire island of borneo
This is part of the massive infrastructure build up by this administration all across indonesia.
Also as a jakarta resident, the river are actually being clean up since the era of jokowi as Governor, and today,there are effective clean up system in Jakarta not only on the river but also on residential area
And no for everyone who wonders, Jakarta won't be abandoned, it is municipal city with the largest economy in indonesia and the entire southeast asia, it would be just like US abandon new york
@Alfaritsi Akhtar problem with naypyidaw was that it was pretty unpopular among the public as well to be built by the military dictator. And the dictatorship built the capital more for themselves rather than any people.
Both these elements seem to be absent in Indonesia's case.
@Leo the British-Filipino 70% of east kalimantan is ethnic Bugis (Sulawesi ethnic group), Paser and Kutai (native on the coast) and Dayak (native on the interior). It is unlike for example Mindanao, where Visayan settlers have completely replaced all locals except for a tiny muslim enclave on the west.

As person origin from Jakarta current situation is better than it's ten to 15 years ago 😁
So sorry for that. Hope we can solve that problem in the next attempt for Jakarta.
it is ridiculous to say Beijing is one of the top 3 worst cities for traffic.........As of December 2021, there are 27 operating lines of the Beijing Metro, with an operating mileage of 783 kilometers and 459 stations (including 72 transfer stations).......the resident population of Beijing is only 22 million......
I live in Laos. It is China's next door neighbor. Laos capital is Vientiane. We have the lowest population in Asia. With less people, we get less traffic and noise. Laos is a great location to open a factory. It's easy to do business with China next door.
What makes you think Beijing is among the top three? Is there any report which states so?
The new Capital city, as of the time I wrote this, is planned to be named "Nusantara", which translates to "Archipelago".
As someone who grown up in Jakarta and also experienced living at other city in Java Island for few short years, I fully embrace this decision to move the Capital city. It is the right thing to do, at least to alleviate Jakarta overpopulation problem since right now the city itself is not condusive anymore for most of its citizens.
The government made this decision based on that time when USA moved their capital from New York to Washington D.C.

As a Bruneian, this is interesting to watch. I'm quite curious as to what will happen in the future for Kalimantan. But I think one thing you haven't stated is the fact that the Borneo has it's own problem, which is air pollution from forest fires from Kalimantan itself
Either that or Jakarta emitting more :p
it could be a good news for our neighbor country. since the capitals move, they can deal with bad/naughty oil palm company quickly and the result may be reducing/ending air polution annualy
The problem stems from neglect, certainly it would be interesting when the city is built.
Thanks to Malaysian oil company
yes, agreed about that problem but hoping that with the capital city being there at borneo/kalimantan, that might help a lot in that problem and many other problems that might not be exposed or known yet.
I am a malaysian I have visted Indonesia 3 times love it. People are very intelligent hardworking broadmined. Felt very free there with regards to religious freedom etc
Love to live there. Sumatra is beautiful. Lake Toba heavenley. Their president is very clever.
Very intellingent, hahahahaha
I love my Malaysians brother, they have great senses of humor!
Thank you 😌
thanks
I live in Malaysia for 5 years and I like Malaysia too, I think KL is much better than Jakarta in my opinion as Indonesian. Less crowded and less traffic jam
Love the channel and informative videos! But, 7:45, 172 days is more than half of a year? I think the math may be a bit off on that one haha
That thumbnail rocks! where to download it? Very good as desktop wallpaper
I myself did working in the goverment handling this particular case (i did work in ministry of works as a consultant) and the video is actually pretty much accurate in terms how reasons why we need to move out capital. If i may, i want to add much of information as well as aggregated opinion (both by government and its people) regarding this issue
1. True that Jakarta sinking fast due to heavy usage of ground water, so much so that recently there are issues of limiting ground water usage in several districts inside Jakarta, while also making retension well to increase water absorbtion into ground. It is already discussed between goverment and local representative council (DPRD) to pass this plan into a law to be enforced.
2. As for new capital itself, it is still have issues. While yes Kalimantan (Borneo) has advantage of being earthquake "free" and less potency of geological disaster, it is by no means still pretty much affected in terms in ecological threat such as flooding (although it won't be severe as Jakarta) and smog. Now i highlighted about smog because this problem is, by any means, will haunt new capital as well. You see, when you say Borneo is a lush rain forest, that is not true either, since there now more and more jungles were cut open to make palm oil plantation (and yes, Borneo provide pretty much most of world, if not Indonesian, production of palm oil) as well as opening new coal mines. and these often make bush fire shows up. While yes not much fatalities, it still threatens much of jungles itself, and providing dangerous smog that can threat Borneo in general (and the capital in particular). Borneo itself did engulfed in such smog that not only affected some of its cities inside the island, it also impacted western part of Indonesia, heck even Singapore and Malaysia as well
3. Many concerning that the new capital will be an empty husk just like Naypyidaw, instead of like Brazilia or Abuja. Well i have to say that it kinda not true but it actually is. See, indeed since most of Indonesian population heavily concentrated on Java, the island, especially Jakarta, became a centre in economics in our country. So much so that all of headquarters of national company lies in Jakarta pr its satelite cities. Not to mention there is a kind of sentiment that sums up an old belief between indonesian society
"It's better work near homeland"
It means that you just want to work near your birthplace, or your homeland or sort. Not many Indonesians are eager to move outside their homeland (and if they do, most won't come back either). These means relocation such people to new capital, in and itself, is a major task. While yes, civil servants as well as armed force can be "mandated" to live there together with their families, same thing won't be easy to ask an enterprise or national compamy to move their headquarters there except if there are compensation or sort.
4. And finally, the most pain in the ass of all, politics. See, there is still a dividing opinion whether the capital shpuld be moved at all. While yes the Jakartans many agree, still there are some who disagree just because the politics (put it simply, Jokowi was like Indonesian version of Biden. Quite a lot hate his government) and the oppositions are mostly egomaniacs (although again, governmental supporters are also egomaniacs so, not much difference) and this pretty much affected how on policy be made. See, while indeed there is thorough research for the choice of site for new capital. There is also someone who taking this as an advantage for personal business (and yes. Some of politicians in ministerial and representative level do have a palm oil plantation or coal mines) that quite disturbing. Although again, we can't much say about this since politics in Indonesia itself (if not global) are a complex one
Therefore i can say that i might be pessimistic about the plan, but i do hope at least people realize that this thing are actually necessary.
Kerja di Bappenas kah bro?
@Zaydan Naufal i did forget about the law has been passed. But indeed the fatalities are low despite the cost is fairly high
@@jumpinsphere di KemenPU sih, dulu sempet bahas IKN disitu 😂😂

Itu menyinggung org asli sana (yang sebetulnya memang pantas org kalimantan tersinggung), ini jg fakta tersirat bahwa masih banyak yg enggan pindah ke kalimantan, apalagi ke ibukota baru
I lived in Jakarta for a year. I fell in love with Indonesia and its people, but Jakarta problems are very real. I hope all these projects succeed and I will be happy to be back in Indonesia.

Great video
4:31 Great video! 👍😊 Just keep in mind that ASEAN is generally pronounced as ‘As-see-an’ and not ‘A-seen’.
At least it wasn't A-shawn
Another country in the process of moving their capital is Equatorial Guinea, theyre moving their current one (Malabo) to a city currently in construcion deep inside the country (Oyala/Ciudad de la Paz)
Yeah nice that some body also knows about this one. I has always seemed pretty odd to me to have capital on an Island while haveing most of country's landmass on the contonent
@@TravelsOutsideTheBox Well, don't most of their population live on said island? It makes sense to have your capital near your populational center.
During the Spanish empire when Spain first got the EQ. island of Bioko plus other small islands and part of the mainland coast, EQ. was administered from Bueno Aires Argentina. Spain took over administration once Argentina declared Independence. Spain use to administer the islands and mainland separately. Both have different ethnic groups. Spain in time united both and then gave them independence after being pressured by the UN. That time they did not know there were huge reserves of oil off waters of the main island of Bioko. So economically that island is important. But this oil wealth has caused Bioko original ethnic group to be overwhelmed by the ethnic groups coming from the more populated mainland. This explains why some want independence for there island. When it comes to oil on the mainland, it seems it still needs to be discovered.
Ive always thought that at least strategically, Chicago would make the best capital city for the US. Well inland from either coast, has well developed highway and railway infrastructure, and also has a large port.
St. Louis is more centrally located and is on major waterways. Also both sides can be made their own district.
@@jameswolf133 but the question is, does the us need so?

Would be worth mentioning Kazakhstan too. 8th largest country, the capital city used to be Alma-Ata in the south. Now, brand new capital city from the scratch Astana( Nur-Sultan), in the center of Kazakhstan. In order to get more control up north where a lot of russian population. Now we see, whats going on with Ukraine

As a person who spent his entire life in Jakarta metropolitant area, it's true that a lot of issues is happening in Jakarta right now, from environmental to social and traffic issues. I think it's a right choice from president Joko Widodo to move the entire capital city to the Kalimantan. I hope the development of the new capital will be focuses to build a more public transport oriented and more sustainable city than Jakarta.
Its weird they move capital city to the national garden which alot of trees been cut...orang utans will be lost..and the origin people from borneo will be lost also...i think its the name of money and politics ..greedy..
Hello Johanes. I'm surprised by the great number of people from Indonesia and Malaysia posting on this thread in English. Can you tell me -- is speaking English pretty common among people in the cities of these countries? Among the young? Thank you.
@@fijanbomer9532 I'm surprised no one mentioned this yet. The environment will take a toll

@@hhyten 90% of all gen Zs here can speak some English
@@hhyten maybe I can help you to answer your curiosity, I'm a native teenager from Indonesia and I can say prolly 90% of Gen-Z sure can speaks English pretty well. And just fyi we have some groups and pages in Facebook and Instagram which connects peoples in all across ASEAN (South East Asia) and speaks English on it. So yeah, English is basically pretty common among the teenagers here, not to mention that most of Gen-Z here are trilinguals and some even speaks 4 language as well, we speaks Bahasa Indonesia, our native tribe language (like Javanese, Sundanese, Bataknese, etc and we have around 700+ of them), English, and the religion related languages (like Arabic, Chinese, and Hebrew).
That was a particularly interesting show. I knew the Philippines had 7,107 islands. But, Indonesia has 17,000+ islands...never knew about that. Top it off with some of the most important sea lanes connecting Asia to the rest of the world and it and Mylasia has serious issues in the future. Even the Micro Center ad was interesting, but they are not in Florida. Happy Trails
Yeah that's a lot but still incomparable to the number of island Sweden have, 221,800 islands, damn.

as a malaysian, a sabahan on borneo island iam really looking forward toward this. i hope we sarawakian & sabahan could get some of those benefits from trading with the new indonesia capital, so we in borneo are not left behind in infrastucutre and education like the west malay did to us.
Hello there from a fellow Sarawakian!
@@antoniusblaise8733 hello 👋🏼.
Sabahan here too. I hope more economical opportunities will be benefited by neighbouring states.
Yet keep voting umno.
don't you see what happen to the new gov? In 2020. We did vote others, but those old greedy bastard still find ways to regain control.
Also org kg in borneo were lacking education for a very long time, rm50 is good for them. In sabah they're very proud with "TATAP BN" a shirt they're wearing almost every day.
Younger people know better, especially those living in city with better education. Last election, all big city in sabah won by opposing party only kampung BN won.
As an Indonesian from Jakarta, I have to say that the problem of congestion is very true. I use to go to a school in a town called BSD, which is about 30 minutes by highway from South Jakarta where I live, but it shares one of the most important highways around Jakarta. The traffic on this highway was so bad one day that a trip that would only take 30 minutes on a good day, took me *4 whole hours* and an average of 1 and a half hour ish on a normal day.
The traffic is bad, but the main problem is our policy on transportation more than population density. Everyone here (I'm also in JakSel) takes cars or motorbikes. The sidewalks are unsafe if they even exist, and a pedal bike is too dangerous. I love the BRT and train network, but there's just not enough routes. Transfers are sometimes a pain: the overhead walks at Semanggi and Kuningan take a while; Kebayoran has a train and a bus a few hundred meters apart, but there's no safe passage between; BRT exists on the inner ring, but not TB Simatupang, so a trip from Pasar Minggu to Kebon Jeruk that takes a car 30 minutes and almost no turns must be done in two hours and three transfers by transit.

Nice video It is amazing And Good job in the capital city indonesian nice 👍
actually in history Indonesian Government planned to move the capital 3 times. First in Soekarno President era where Soekarno planned to move capital to city of Palangkaraya in Central Kalimantan. The second one in Soeharto President era where Soeharto planned to move capital to Jonggo rural district in northeast of Bogor
I think the video was trying to say that this is the first time the capital would be moved, not the first attempt at moving the capital.

Hopefully the objective of moving our capital from Jakarta/Java to Nusantara/Borneo will equalize the opportunity for Borneans/Kalimantanese to grow in many aspects which has long been enjoyed by Javanese. They can enjoy the economy, education, etc. So their natural resources are used for the commonwealth of Kalimantanese rather than sucked by politial elites in Jakarta.
will accelerate more transmigrasi
Ivoaryan, well said.
Don't forget ur own government too. What did they do in these loooong time? Central government had and still giving ur government money and now starting to build infrastructure with central's money. Where's ur own money? Is it because ur government more corrupted than Central but u rather to blame ur own government, u turned blind and blaming central government?? LOL
@Da thats true
Agreed. It's kind of crazy as an outsider seeing countries like Indonesia where some cities are comparable to western cities like those in the US while other parts of the country are stuck 100 years or more in the past, where 1 ethnic group who make up less than half the country hold most of the wealth and power. It's like a European colonial empire encapsulated in a single archipelago kind of like England in the British isles
Kudos to RealLifeLore for producing this video *very* quickly. For context: the new National Capital Act was ratified by DPR (the lower house of Indonesia's parliament) literally *4 DAYS* ago!

Cheers 🍻 it's just the beginning. Hope we can finish this huge project without any major problem.
I can vouch for the traffic from Bogor to Jakarta. I lived in Cibubur, Bogor for 2 months and it was terrible. Even to move around within Bogor. We missed an important business meeting, the reason for us to be in the country due to traffic, at 8 am.. This coming from a person who lived in Bangalore for years which has the worst traffic in all of India... 😑
Edit- some people asking to use public transport. 6 of us were in a Grab taxi. This incident is from 3 years ago. We certainly didn't have our own cars as expats on short term visit..
Well, from someone that has lived in bogor for 16 years, im absolutely delighted that they gonna try to solve the issues in jakarta, cause every problem in jakarta will indirectly affect the greater surrounding area of jabodetabek (jakarta, bogor, depok, tanggerang, bekasi)
Last week i rode a motorbike from Depok west java from 06.15AM and reach Pancoran south Jakarta at 07.55. can you believe that? It took another half hour to reach my destination in Cakung east Jakarta.

Enjoyed the video but how did you stuff up Sydney and Melbourne?
As a former historical tour guide specialized in Jakarta City, i got some things to say.
Jakarta was and never was meant to be perfect for a country's capital city.
Even when Indonesia still under dutch rule, alot of dutch politicians considering to move the capital city Jakarta (then batavia) to somewhere else, especially after the 17th century and the massive malaria and water pollutions in the city. But rather move it to other place, the dutch decides just expands Batavia to the south and abbonden the old Batavia.
And after the independence, even our president back then considers to move the capital city.
When it comes to water and floodings problems, it have existed since the dutch control. And it was the dutch who mades the clean underground water pumping project. But sadly we just realised the problem with underground water pumping now... And it is called sinking ground.
Not a big fan on the current president nor i care, but its a good move to move our capital city. I mean lets be real.
Edit: Lmao im famous. Just gonna remind ya'll to stream 'Red (Taylor's Version)' by Taylor Swift😗😗☺

Hi Aussie here. You got Sydney and Melbourne mixed up on your map. Great video though 👍
Uraian yang komprehensif disertai dengan gambar2 kota Jakarta masa lalu dan masa kini, grafik serta uraian dan gambar2 pendukung lainnya yang unik
I agree with the fact in this video, Indonesia really has to move its capital city considering that the island of Java is already very densely populated. The discourse of moving the capital city of Jakarta has also existed since Indonesia was still colonized by the Dutch, precisely during the reign of Governor Herman Willem Daendels. Many factors caused Indonesia to have to move its capital city, in addition to the overpopulation factor on the island of Java, geographical factors were also the main reason why Indonesia had to move its capital city because of the very low landmass of the island of Java and it was predicted that in the future the island of Java would sink because its geological factors were already damaged. Population distribution must be carried out evenly, considering that the island of Kalimantan is still empty of residents, although Kalimantan's natural resources are very high but underutilized due to a lack of human resources, this can be a reference for Indonesia to move the capital city.
👌
