Jakarta (VNA) - The Indonesian Government has recently announced a plan to begin construction on legislative and judicial zones in the new capital, Nusantara, in late October or early November this year.
Development of the two zones is part of the second phase of construction in Nusantara, a project aimed at reducing pressure on overcrowded and sinking Jakarta.
Head of the Nusantara Capital Authority (OIKN) Basuki Hadimuljono said preparations for the two zones, located in the core government area (KIPP), have been completed.
The KIPP already includes the presidential palace and ministerial offices, construction of which began in 2022. The new zones will house the legislature and judiciary, key to the full relocation of government functions from Jakarta.
To date, total public investment in Nusantara has reached 65.73 trillion IDR (4 billion USD), involving 42 enterprises./.
