Jakarta ● Sat, September 4, 2021
The National Development Planning Agency (Bappenas) estimates that the construction of Indonesia’s new capital city in East Kalimantan will take decades, indicating that the project will stretch far beyond President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo’s current and final five-year term.
Bappenas head Suharso Monoarfa told lawmakers on Wednesday that the agency estimated 15 to 20 years would be needed for the relocation, including all requirements. Suharso, who also serves as national development planning minister, said the agency would divide the development period of almost two decades into several stages, each with its own tasks and timeline.
The city is to occupy an area of 256,000 hectares in the East Kalimantan regencies of North Penajam Paser and Kutai Kartanegara. As the future capital, it would take some of the pressure off Jakarta
New capital will take decades, not years: Bappenas
Rome wasn’t built in a day, and neither will Indonesia’s new capital. Turning the plan into reality will take decades, authorities have said, putting a damper on hopes that the project would get off the ground during President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo’s term in office.

Refinery project to improve eastern Indonesia's economy: Hutama Karya
4th September 2021
PT Hutama Karya (Persero) is pursuing the completion of the Joint Operation Project of Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) of the Development of the Open Access of PT Pertamina's Refinery Unit VII Kasim. (ANTARA/HO-Hutama Karya/uyu)
Jakarta (ANTARA) - State-owned construction company PT Hutama Karya (Persero) is pursuing the completion of the joint operation project of engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) of the development of the open access of Refinery Unit VII Kasim.
The refinery unit located in Seget sub-district, Sorong district, West Papua, belongs to state-owned oil and gas company PT Pertamina (Persero), with a contract value of Rp684 billion, an official informed.
"The open access development is a national strategic project which aims to maintain the supply and stock stability of crude oil, thus the fuel supply from the Refinery Unit VII Kasim to the Eastern regions of Indonesia -- Maluku, Papua, and West Papua – can be sustained," director of operations II at PT Hutama Karya (Persero), Ferry Febrianto, said in a written statement received here on Friday.
The scope of the company’s work in the project comprises all EPC phases of four oil tanks, with a capacity of 110 mega barrel each, a jetty with a capacity of 50 thousand dead weight tons along with supporting facilities, as well as a piping network, he informed.
However, there are several challenges the company is facing in finishing the project, Febrianto said.
“The main challenge is the remoteness of the construction site, which makes it difficult to get materials, tools, as well as 500 manpower needed for the project. However, by using the existing jetty closest to the site, the supply of the materials and tools has been facilitated,” he said.
The company is not only focusing on project development, but also on its corporate social responsibility towards the local community by improving the roads used by residents, PT Pertamina, as well as construction material transport providers, he informed.
The project has also created job opportunities and absorbed the local workforce, and the company has launched a human capital program to optimize the potential of Papuan youth, he added.
PT Hutama Karya (Persero) is also "grateful" and always open for support from various parties to complete the project successfully, Febrianto said.
Meanwhile, in carrying out the work, the company is consistently implementing the zero-working accident and COVID-19 prevention protocols, he added. The company is ensuring that all employees involved in the project have been vaccinated against COVID-19, he informed.
The open access development project is being carried out with the use of floating roof technology in storage tanks to minimize evaporation output to maintain emission, in accordance with regulatory compliance, Febrianto said.
The company is optimistic that the development begun on January 22, 2021 can be completed on time and in accordance with the specifications and planned targets by the end of 2022, he added.
The project is expected to provide benefits and improve the economy of the people in the eastern regions of Indonesia, he said.

Mega Kuningan Central Business District, South Jakarta.
We can see Greater Jakarta LRT project progress in the end section of the video, the main road there is a bit broken due to construction effect, but inshaAllah the areas there will be very good if the project is finished around middle of 2022.

Full Walking Around in Terminal 3 Bandara Soekarno Hatta International Airport [T3 SHIA] ~ Gate 22
Soekarno–Hatta International Airport Terminal 3 (also known as #Terminal3 Ultimate) is an airport terminal of Soekarno–Hatta International Airport serving Greater Jakarta, Indonesia. It is located on northeast side of the airport. Terminal 3 has a different style than other terminals of the airport.
Terminal 1 and 2 were built with incorporation of the local architecture into the design, but Terminal 3 is built in contemporary modern design with environmental friendly and traditional sense. The terminal was first named as Terminal 3 Ultimate but later it was decided to integrate with the old Terminal 3.
Garuda Indonesia operates all of its flights, both domestic and international from this terminal. For other airlines operating at #SoekarnoHattaInternationalAirport, serving international routes except low-cost airlines operate from Terminal 3.

Train station in Jakarta. This is central station so it is bigger, there are many smaller stations and the look like this also, but smaller. Every station will have praying room for Muslim, usually separated room between men and women.
This is example of smaller station
We call it commuter line

President Spends Busy Weekend in Papua
BY :LENNY TRISTIA TAMBUN & WHISNU BAGUS
OCTOBER 03, 2021
Jayapura. President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo continued his trip in Papua on Sunday to inaugurate several projects, a day after opening historic national games in the easternmost province.
It’s for the first time that Papua becomes a host of the multi-event games held every four years.
Security concerns arising from recent rebel attacks at remote Papuan districts seemed to be a thing of the past as the president enthusiastically launched the 20th National Sports Week (PON) and played soccer with native Papuans inside the stadium in the provincial capital Jayapura, where the ceremony took place on Saturday night.
“This PON carries a crucial meaning for all Indonesian people. This PON sets the stage for equality and justice for us to move forward together and become prosperous together under the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia,” Jokowi said in his opening remarks.The following morning, the president began non-stop trips across the province to inspect and inaugurate key infrastructure projects including an indoor stadium, a hospital, an airport terminal, a border crossing and a co-working office.
From Jayapura in the north, Jokowi flew across the island to inaugurate a border crossing near Papua New Guinea in the town of Merauke. Jokowi said the integrated “border crossing complex” has commercial venues, a public market, worship buildings and other public facilities.
An estimated 350 people from neighboring Panua New Guinea cross the border gate every month to buy basic commodities, electronic products or automotive parts, Home Affairs Minister Tito Karnavian said.
“This creates business opportunities for residents to supply commodities for around 201,000 people in the nearby Papua New Guinea’s province,” Tito said.

Also in Merauke, the president inspects a new hospital which was initially built for Covid-19 patients.
“The speed to build this hospital was super fast, taking less than 20 days,” the president said. As the number of new Covid-19 cases in Merauke has been in a steady decline, the newly-built LB Moerdani Hospital can now function as a general hospital, he added.
Earlier in the day, Jokowi found a time to have dialogue with all regional leaders in the province at the governor’s office in Jayapura.
Development in Papua and West Papua has become central government’s priority since Jokowi took office in October 2014.
During his first term, the president visited the two provinces at least 12 times.
The weekend trip was his second visit to Papua since he was reelected in 2019.
His first objective is to build infrastructure to ensure connectivity in the impoverished provinces, which have among the lowest population density in the archipelagic nation.
His government has built 3,446 kilometers of roads, 1,733 kilometers of which are already paved with asphalt, according to government data.
Ten new airports and at least six new seaports are being built in Papua and West Papua, some have become operational.
However, security issue remains the biggest hurdle in Jakarta's development program for the two provinces amid escalating attacks by rebels. The most horrific attack came in December 2018 when a group of gunmen executed at least 17 construction workers in the remote town of Nduga.
Last month, rebels attacked medical workers in Kiwirok, leaving a nurse dead. They also burned down public facilities such as a clinic and a school building.
The Free Papua Movement, or OPM, has said in social media posts that they don’t hesitate to target “non-native” civilians including teachers and medical workers if they don’t leave Papua immediately.

AlhamduliLLAH, government also should make reservoir to fill more water into Jakarta soil by diverting some rivers that go to Jakarta. This effort is expensive but necessary. Some people must be relocated if they live in the project site.
Some areas in North Jakarta that is badly effected by land sinking should be made city jungle and people living there should be relocated with good incentive and compensation. Pakistan has project to relocate 500.000 people in Karachi for instants, while we have more needs to do such thing in North Jakarta in order to save Jakarta.

This is to prevent the land subsidence in Jakarta from happening again. One of the efforts is we provide piped drinking water for Jakarta and its surrounding areas.
Jakarta (ANTARA) - The Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) will develop two drinking water systems (SPAM), Jatiluhur 1 and Karian Serpong, for Jakarta and surrounding areas and make them operational in 2024, an official has said.
The two projects are expected to stop groundwater use by residents living in Jakarta and its surrounding areas, Diana Kusumastuti, the director general of construction at the PUPR Ministry, told the press here on Monday.
"We expect the two SPAM will operate or its commercial operation date (COD) start in 2024; (the two regional SPAMs) are Jatiluhur 1 and Karian Serpong. Hopefully, it can be done," she said.
The PUPR Ministry is still making preparations for the Juanda regional SPAM project, she informed.

Efforts are being undertaken to develop SPAM through public-private partnership (KPBU) schemes to halt the use of groundwater in the capital and its surrounding areas, Kusumastuti explained.
"We must stop the groundwater use in Jakarta and its surrounding areas. This is to prevent the land subsidence in Jakarta from happening again. One of the efforts is we provide piped drinking water to Jakarta and its surrounding areas," she added.
The government has decided on the provision of piped drinking water through regional SPAMs to meet the water needs of residents in Jakarta and its surrounding areas, such as Bekasi and Karawang, Kusumastuti said.
The piped water will be sourced from Jatiluhur Dam for the Jatiluhur 1 regional SPAM and Karian Dam for the Karian Serpong SPAM, she informed.
"This is because the Jakarta area does not have a raw water source," she informed.

As part of efforts to stop groundwater use, the Jakarta provincial government has also proposed another SPAM project in Buaran sub-district, East Jakarta to the PUPR Ministry, she said.
Earlier, PUPR Minister Basuki Hadimuljono had revealed that the Karian Serpong SPAM project, which is being undertaken under a public-private partnership, will prevent the land level decline in the Jakarta area.
According to Hadimuljono, if the water needs of Jakarta's western region are met, the government can prohibit the use of groundwater in the capital and its surrounding areas.
