Maybe we could move ours to there, too.

Jakarta probably ranks only behind Port au Prince as the worst place I ever spent any time. I was seriously warned not to roll down the window in a stifling taxi, or especially place my arm outside, as there were motorbike gangs who would ride alongside and clip off watches and fingers (for the rings) with chain cutters.
However, I'm sure the other nasty part of Jakarta, the top to bottom corruption needed to do business (I always assigned the market to our Singapore partners since they could deal with it once removed) in Indonesia will transfer completely intact to the new capital.

I think the people in Alaska once voted to move their state capital from Juneau to a place north of Anchorage (I think it was Talkeetna) but somehow that never materialized. Juneau is hard to get to from the rest of the state.

Dumb mudslimes want to move from hot to hotter.
Brazil's Brasilia made sense, of a sort - Rio doesn't need to be the capitol to be Rio.
Jakarta will go the way of Calcutta.

We need to relocate our capital to a more centrally located part of the country.

We need to do that in America again.
Plenty of countries have changed their capitals at some time in their history including Nigeria changing capitals from the crime infested Logos to brand new capital Abuja some years back.

Where is the Muslim dominance over there? Is Borneo or still Jakarta?

I talked to a civil engineer in Hong Kong many years ago. He said the only way to fix the infrastructure problems in Jakarta was to burn it down and start over.
Maybe the government there agrees? Or maybe they want a location that is tsunami proof.

Since Jakarta will not be a capital, could we move DC there? Just think... Maryland and Virginia red...
But then, we might need to figure out what to do with all the empty buildings? Offices for private businesses? Only department I want in DC is the Pentagon.

Okay -
"President Joko Widodo" is
really the person's name?
No - I will NOT laugh. That would be rude, insensitive, wrong. (snicker)
