aah. i british manager. welcome to the dublin news asia. glad you could join us. indonesia wants a new capital and it's spending nearly $33000000000.00 to get it. they didn't government plan is to move the capital from jakarta on the island of java. 2000 kilometers away to a new purpose, been city called no, sun tata in east gully mountain province. on the island of borneo, the re location is expected to take decades, but the plan is to move the 1st government offices and bureaucrats. they're starting 2024. but why move a capital? here's some answers. jakarta is disappearing, slowly, being swallowed by the sea. an abandoned mosque, now a monument to the cities. bleak future. scientists estimate as much as

a 3rd of it could be lost by 2050. millions are at risk power plus a got a rise level now higher than my home. why my now living below the water level? maybe because the sea water is swallowing the soil, little by little that it but that's all i know. but yeah, but luckily we now have that see will there, when does the little, i believe we do the defense, you know, showing cracks the thousands of shacks that dot the shoreline here flood regularly leaving behind, hazardous waste and pollution. i knew that room in the past, it wasn't like this. it was nicer and the sea water was good through them on the beach. sand was nice and we could still play in the water. now we can't do that anymore cuz i the water's mackey and dirty. i thought it floods every high tide. my

dear to carter was it di lamar to climate change and poor resource management. excessive grown water use has led to massive subsidence. a city, a sinking residence, a heading, if not for higher ground than higher floors resigned. to chaos there i'm love of you know was, was today or not so nervous about the flooding that budget in the past when the floods came, i used to tremble without them. i guess i nearly drowned back in 2007 on got it with their drink. all my belongings were swept away and i had to start all over again. but on buttons, i am very malay, not with it though. theresa. the government, too, is planning a fresh start hoping to relocate the capital to borneo. such drastic measures aren't an option for the purge cartons, living on the edge of this unfolding disaster.

and gentlemen, are for more, is dr. acres per man are sorry. she's an associate professor in urban design at ma, national diversity, indonesia and is currently in berlin. doctor per manasseh, we welcome given that jakarta is literally sinking, is building a new capital. the only option well, as you mentioned, the current capital city is sinking at the rapid stage is the fastest thinking city in the world. and therefore there were so many attempts in order to rescue jakarta . now those a term seems to be failed and now they decided that they have to move to capital city to color mountain. now, talking about the movement where this necessary or not, of course, there is always been a debate. but looking at this from multiple perspective, for instance, finding a new location in center, calling one pan carriage to meaning sexually one is taking the power from the jeff and the center isn't. and even the chance or other location as the center of power,

right. as the government or economy. another thing is if the seen as a political move, which shows the world that colon and then as the center of the nation. so it's been how we all know the color montana bore me. i've been the source of oxygen not only for indonesia, but also for the world by putting this capital city. it is a bold statement that this is the center of indonesia. so i think there are 2 things. yeah. one is like touching it from, from their job and then i didn't, i did want to talk to you about that, but it's good that you brought it up. but having said that, i really would like to know from you, what does this mean for the people who live in regard to some to 1000000 people who called you got a home? will everyone now be able to move to santa rosa video? well, there are some faces for the most money. so for instance, this planning of the capital is starting from the 2022 to 2014 by the

1st stage at the 1st space is the 1st 2 years. that is that 2024, which there will be the core us government sector. yeah. and they will move the 1st one that they will move is not the whole jack that, that people, i think jakarta regardless is no longer capital. it will work as the center of economy. and remember, the jakarta carries the layers of symbolism for colonial to a post colonial, so it will not lose it's. carrie smiled as a city, but this new capital by 2024. they will move the civil servants, the ministries agencies, employees, and all that. army police and all that. so the 1st stage at the 23rd before their plan to have 488000 people. and then 2nd stage until 2029, they will bring more people and they will lay out some infrastructure and so on

until 2045. so i don't think they will move the whole 10000000 up in your capital. although that's good to have a clarification, i do want to talk to you more about this move. if you would mind staying on the line. dr. berman are sorry, because i'd like to offer our viewers now a glimpse of what this new city new san tara is supposed to look like. now these computers are original images show a starkly different city compared to what jakarta currently is. lots of green space is an open walkways, a city surrounded by lush jungle, free from the congestion and pollution of the capitol. all residents are expected to be within a 10 minute walk of green spaces, and every high rise is expected to be constructed. eco friendly manner and be energy efficient. so clean, green and high turn. but as building begins, locals and environmentalists already warning of the impact did of those asia

pacific bureau chief gail motus reports carving out a presidential dream. this is where one day the heart of indonesia, new capital, will beat on a remote patch of land deep inside a vast eucalyptus plantation. for decades in the nation, governments focus on the development of the island of java and it's crowded and congested capital jakarta. but president, jo, be daughter, wants to change that and bring money in development to the island of borneo, to starting from scratch at this point. $50000.00 flock, pitches of eucalyptus plantation will over time. give way to new san tara, indonesia, new capital. it's supposed to be a green and smart global city, a capital set to draw all its energy from renewable sources, surrounded by a lush rain forest. but not all of the area plant for the future metropolis is yet old by the government. and that poses

a problem. the indigenous population often lacks papers for the lance they have left on 4 generations tells me this local chief. and he says they are not being offered a fair deal. e back learning iris from jakarta. but these rules don't fit here. the price of land in the new capital area is already $1300.00 euros per square meter, but we're only been paid till euros per square meter. what does that mean? that if we sell, where can we buy land again? anywhere around here, that's impossible. they're slowly driving us out. gara movie damica, who are the custom on the local government representative tells me there are clear procedures for compensation. nobody has to worry. he sees becky economic benefits on the horizon for both the locals and for new comers. he hopes to attract from java. 1.9000000 people are supposed to reside in new santoro by 2045.

it happened after there are no earthquakes notes in armies. huh. there are no social conflicts involving tribal, religious, or racial issues. it's the ideal many indonesia here glanced back in a sam in the attic, announced bible. but what about the cities impact on the nature outside its boundaries? for instance, on the mangrove forests for the downstream in the delta of malick pop punk around sunset, they thought to come and flip the oh, now if the only other conservation is colonel, a village shows me a family of protected proboscis. monkeys. she fears that sediment and pollution from the new capital could destroy the prestige landscape here. the bay will be like a cancellation gate to the capital area, right? if the watergate, the chemical area is, and on the same time, it is where all of those products as pieces are there. the government has recently

announced plans to enlarged the existing mangrove forest. but what is not clear yet is how all of this is being paid for. with 80 percent of the financing for the new capital expected to come from the private sector. the government's vision of a green capital could end up being at odds with the reality of big business demands . dr. fermanagh, sorry, i think you have that report. i'd like to get your views on this as well. how environmentally sound other plans for the new capital? well, i think that report based on very good and capturing the situation on the ground while the policy seems to cover all good aspects you know, like they have or this a principle. yes. so for instance, designing based on the nature pro, conditions. but in the cillian law, carbon emission and so on and they can split those of this 8 principles. it's a start to keep b i for instance, 75 percent green aria with

a couple of complex and so on. but bear in mind that this is the very top down policy. yeah. and, and the question remains like, how would you translate that to the local context? how can you and show that these things will be implemented? yeah, and are they ready, you know, the community, the local stakeholders, and if you will like to have this as agreed as a lot, as well as possible, we have to work on the ground not only on the top level. i think this is something that the governments should be aware of, and i think this is i'm going to be discussing in the coming month. we'll have to leave it there for the timing, but thank you so much for joining us to the doctor. have paramount on saturday from one i should have seen denisia. thank you so much, ma'am. you're welcome. thank you. and that's it for today we're leave, you know, with images of capitals built from scratch, whether it's new santa you see here, behind me or molest. yes. put i out or camera in australia, it's expensive,
