What is the name of the new capital of Indonesia?
Indonesia has announced that its new capital will be called Nusantara. It came as parliament approved a bill to relocate the capital from Jakarta, which is rapidly sinking. Jakarta has become crowded, polluted and is sinking at an alarming rate due to the over-extraction of groundwater. The idea of building a new capital 1,300km (800 miles) away on the island of Borneo was first proposed in 2019. In building a new capital in East Kalimantan, an Indonesian province on the island of Borneo, the government hopes it can take some of the pressure off Jakarta.
