Nonsense
Vietnam Gdp per capita is $3,5k, Indonesia is stuck $4k since a decade. I expect we will get even in 2 years.
China peaceful rise, China Silk Road is as it is: a scam.
Germany doesn’t have any Silk Road because they are not so insane enough to make money out of blood of others people countries.

Wall Street is a scam. Hard tangible infrastructure is not. Our loan is in rmb, Indonesia can pay us bck in 40 years, who cares. The new trading system is about to start, you need to start thinking whether to become US dog or China's dog.

Uuuuu I feel the acid in this one. China is the largest plane market on earth and yet we still use Hsr, why do you think so?

Bandung is also a home of Institute Technology Bandung (ITB), best STEM university in Indonesia.

And also UNPAD university that could be said the fifth best university in Indonesia. Both are state owned universities.

Many Jakartan studied there because we have nation wide examination to enter state owned universities across Indonesia where the best students will get the best education based on their passion.

Even in the middle of Covid-19 second wave, work on HSR is still ongoing...
Progress as per early July is at 76,36 %

There's a change to the planned stations though :
Original plan : Halim (Jakarta) --> Karawang --> Walini --> Tegalluar (Bandung)
New plan : Halim (Jakarta) --> Karawang --> Walini (temporarily suspended) --> Padalarang (new addition) --> Tegalluar (Bandung)

The reason being the road access to the planned Walini station is still very poor, while Padalarang is much more accessible as there's already an existing train station there... Walini station is not cancelled though, they will still develop it on a later date..
