Jakarta (VNA) - The Indonesian government is considering offering free land plots to establish embassy complexes in an area designated as the diplomatic compound within Indonesia's new capital, Nusantara (IKN).
The plan is to encourage and facilitate countries to relocate the headquarters of their diplomatic missions from Jakarta to the future capital by 2028, said head of the IKN Authority Basuki Hadimuljono on February 17.
Hadimuljono highlighted President Prabowo's target of 2028 for IKN to function as the centre of political activities. The OIKN has prepared 62.9 hectares of land dedicated to the planned diplomatic compound to reach this end, he added.
The compound, situated in Nusantara's Central Government Core Area (KIPP), is envisioned as a compact and integrated facility for foreign diplomatic officials.
This premise is also designed to align with international standards and Nusantara's forest city concept, which advocates sustainable development.
According to the plan, the area will encompass entertainment venues, retail and commercial spaces, restaurants, and parks. In addition to the diplomatic compound, the OIKN has prepared land for offices of international organizations in the KIPP.
Under President Prabowo’s administration, the development of Nusantara continues, with plans to govern it as the political capital city in the next four to five years. Construction for executive institutions, such as ministries and national agencies, is nearly complete, and work has begun on buildings for legislative and judicial institutions./.
