hey indah.. I was read what you ask and the responded.. First.. I agree with you if capital city of Indonesia is move.. Because Jakarta now it's be come small.. No person can enough to live in there.. Beside that.. The population in Jakarta it's really-really a lot.. The pollution is very bad in Jakarta.. It's very hot because Global Warming.. Capital City but like that? What the other Country imaging about our country.. And then.. If Indonesia capital city is move.. I think Bandung it's the best place.. Why? Because Bandung city now it's not like the past time.. Bandung now become a great prospect... Beside that.. Bandung still cool not hot like a Jakarta.. The pollution it's very small.. I totally disagree if capital city is moved to Borneo.. I agree about Borneo have a great prospect.. But if capital city move to there it's mean we must cut the forest? It's just make a Indonesia increase a global warming right? I have read someone in here say... Capital city move to Papua? It's so bad answer... Papua can't be a capital city because like Borneo it's very close to the other country ^^ It's my opinion.. What you think about my opinion?

I strongly agree with your opinion. However, wherever the capital of Indonesia moved, it would make the area become distorted and may arise a problem for the region. In my opinion, if the capital was moved to Bandung, then all problems in Jakarta will be moved to Bandung. such as pollution, chaotic traffic and other problems.

thank you for your response. if moved in kalimantan may be a danger to the forest. because the forest may be home residents.

hello indahfth. in my humble opinion, jakarta has fulfilled the many criteria of a capital city. it has a good infrastructure of roads, railway lines, a busy network of both air and shipping lines, a banking and financial services center and its skyline has been repainted with beautiful, tall, modern skyscrapers, high rise buildings, offices and homes. above all, jakarta has a character, culture and history. although i would love the capital city to be reverted to jogjakarta, it is not going to be smooth sailing and it certainly won't happen overnight. jakarta should remain as jakarta, as the capital city while jogjakarta should remain as jogjakarta as the city of the arts and culture. while bali, as the island of the gods.

if Indonesia had to move the capital city, a plan that would be very costly. if the capital city of Indonesia to move, representatives of the people also need to move place of residence. The state must provide housing accommodation for the representatives of the people, and it all requires huge funds. so I do not agree if the capital city of Indonesia moved. many problems will arise. Indonesia already has too many problems. if you have to move the capital city, will add to the problem for Indonesia.

you apparently have deep thinking. you are absolutely right, requires a lot of costs to relocate the capital. but if it should move the capital city, where do you think the capital should be moved?

very difficult to choose the right area to become the capital city. may Yogyakarta. However Yogyakarta including densely populated areas, if it becomes the capital of Jogjakarta will add solid. and all that happened in Jakarta now be moved to Yogyakarta.

i think it will be really complicated if the capital city was moved, because jakarta already has everything that is needed for international meeting, business, trading, etc. if the capital city was to be moved, maybe we can use one of islands that we have for capital city, so the whole thing can be new, and then we will have a capital island instead of capital city. that'll be really cool :D. but the population have to be limited or it will become a 2nd jakarta, looks good in the middle, but really messed up at the suburbs.

well, it will become very complicated, and to limit the population is also very difficult. because certain people will continue to grow.

Well it is sound good if it is true. Jakarta is very crowded now, other region needs to be growth as good as Jakarta. People would think about another region to move beside Jakarta. I think somewhere in Kalimantan. If it moves to Kalimantan, it would be easier to monitor the forest that had been dull.

but if moved to Kalimantan, the forest probably will become increasingly dull. because the forest might be reduced, because it will be a lot of buildings that are mushrooming.

I don't agree if Indonesian capital city is moved to other city. It will be highly cost. It's better if government spread the development. Government have to concern about the development in east Indonesia. If every small town in Java is developing, migration of people to Jakarta will be reduced and Jakarta won't be crowded.

I also can not imagine how busy our country if we have to move the capital city. will surely lead to many problems and will probably be a lot of demos because it does not agree.

I do not agree, if the capital city of Indonesia moved. because it will make things more complicated. and will surely make the area that became the capital of a change in turmoil. further improve the capital city, rather than moving the capital city. indeed very difficult, but if the government is serious and no corruption would soon be repaired.

Better we move our capital city out of Java Island. Java Island is overcrowded. But, the place shall be near Jakarta. Palembang is the best place for me. It is still near Jakarta. It is one of the big city in Indonesia. The land occupancy is still in middle level, perhaps only half of Palembang City area is already built. That's my opinion. What about yours?

if the capital was moved to Palembang, there will be a dense population. but it seemed a good idea.

i think i'm not agree with that..Jakarta is the best place to be the capital city of Indonesia..it's a big and great city..but if the capital city of Indonesia has to be moved, i think Jogjakarta is the best option..it's a beautiful city with nice people..

it would be costly for the capital city to be moved. but if they do it, i would suggest a place like Bali. i for sure will be having more business trips to the new capital then :)
