Indonesia to relocate capital city to Borneo island

Joko Widodo announced plans to move Indonesia's capital from Jakarta to East Kalimantan on Borneo Island. The new location was chosen for its low risk of natural disasters. Jakarta faces overpopulation, congestion, and land subsidence issues. The government aims to build a SMART green city without disturbing protected forests. If approved by parliament, construction will start on a 40,000-hectare plot next year.
