Indonesians are relocating to Nusantara, a new capital in East Kalimantan

Highlights:

• Indonesians are relocating to Nusantara, a new capital in East Kalimantan.
• East Kalimantan, or Jakarta, is a city on the island of Borneo. 
• In 2019, it was stated that the capital would be relocated here.
• President Joko Widodo made the announcement. Since 1949, Jakarta has served as Indonesia's capital.
• Jakarta is confronted with environmental and financial challenges. Jakarta is becoming increasingly polluted.
• It has constantly been recognized as one of the world's most polluted cities.
• Jakarta is located on the Indonesian island of Java.
• Nusantara is located on the island of Borneo. The island of Borneo is larger
• than the island of Java. Jakarta is currently densely inhabited.
• This adds to the load that the Indonesian government is already carrying.
• Jakarta is also sinking. 
• The majority of Jakarta is anticipated to be submerged by 2050.
• This is primarily due to Jakarta's proximity to multiple rivers. These rivers are flood-prone regularly. Many areas in Jakarta dipped up to 10.7 cm between 2019 and 2020.
• All government buildings, including the presidential palace, international
• organization buildings, and foreign diplomatic buildings, would be relocated to Nusantara.
• The idea will cost 33 billion dollars to implement. The capital city will be built on approximately 2,56,142 hectares of land.
• Nusantara is the Indonesian word for the archipelago. It encompasses philosophical, social, and historical considerations.
• Nusantara is a biodiverse island. Moving the capital to Nusantara, according to environmentalists, will result in colossal deforestation.
• It will also put the region's forests and animals in jeopardy.
