Nusantara,[a] officially Nusantara Capital City[1] (Indonesian: Ibu Kota Nusantara, abbreviated IKN), is the future capital city of Indonesia,[2] located between Kutai Kartanegara Regency and Penajam North Paser Regency, East Kalimantan, on the island of Borneo.[3][4][5] Nusantara is planned to be a special capital region at the provincial level, replacing Jakarta to save the city due to faster flooding in Jakarta.[6]
Construction began in July 2022, starting with land clearing and the construction of access roads. The initial phase, known as the 'Main Governmental Area' zone, will comprise government offices, schools, and hospitals. The project is estimated to be worth Rp 523 trillion (US$35 billion) and will be finished in 5 phases. Phase 1 started in August 2022.[7][8] Around 150,000 to 200,000 workers from around Indonesia participated in this project with an additional workforce around the Nusantara region to ensure the participation of local workers.[9][10][11] The project is expected to be fully finished by 2045, with Phase 5 being the last.[12][13] On 17 August 2024, Indonesia officially celebrated its Independence Day for the first time in Nusantara.[14]
