In August last year, Indonesian President Joko Widodo announced a plan to relocate the capital of Jakarta to Kalimantan. The relocation of the capital will move it to a more central location within Indonesia and address the congestion issues of Jakarta.

We speak to Ng Yiek Seng and Michael Tan of Veritas about their work.
