Jakarta, Indonesia’s largest city, is set to be saved from a number of urban issues yet after Nusantara has taken control of the country’s money. This will improve coordination between the central government and neighboring cities.
It is a member of the previously established Jakarta Agglomeration Area Council, where its boy, former vice president Gibran Rakabuming Raka, is rumored to be in charge.
The government is tasked to come up with a blueprint to fix problems such as travel, flooding, geographical planning and environmental degradation in Jakarta and its suburbs, and integrate its implementation with relevant ministries, provinces, cities and regencies.
However, experts are skeptical that its existence will address these difficult problems, claiming that its success will depend heavily on its leader.
Experts also noted that Jakarta must collaborate with its spacecraft cities and suburbs, which are located officially in the neighboring provinces of West Java and Banten, to address issues like sluggish traffic, annual flood, and worsening air waste.
According to Mr. Nirwono Joga, a city-planning expert from Jakarta’s Trisakti University, “one of the reasons why flood is prevalent in Jakarta is because there is sprawl in the inland areas in Bogor.” He cited the mountainous district north of Jakarta.
” Boston’s flood problem begins by limiting the number of villas and resorts being constructed, which are preventing the floor’s ability to absorb water,” says Bogor. But why should ( Bogor officials ) help Jakarta when these villas, hotels and restaurants are a major source of revenue for the regency?
