indonesia is on the cusp of a groundbreaking shift. The nation’s future political capital, Nusantara, is rapidly taking shape in East Kalimantan, promising a modern and sustainable urban center.
The ambitious project, spearheaded by President Prabowo Subianto, aims to fully operationalize Nusantara as the country’s political heart by 2028. This ambitious timeline has ignited a flurry of activity, with the President directing the Nusantara Capital City Authority (OIKN) and the Ministry of Public Works to meticulously review and refine the designs for legislative and judicial institutions.
“It is important to speed up the growth of Nusantara city between 2025 and 2028, especially for the legislative and judicial sectors, including offices, officials’ residences, and other supporting facilities,”
emphasized Basuki Hadimuljono, Head of the OIKN.
While the ministry of Public Works has already conceptualized a basic design for the complex housing thes crucial institutions, President subianto has called for a more in-depth review and re-evaluation.
“We will work with the Ministry of Public Works to form a design team that will work under the guidance of the President,”
Hadimuljono added, highlighting the President’s direct involvement in shaping the future of Nusantara.
To fuel this transformative project, the Indonesian government and the House of Representatives (DPR) have committed a meaningful Rp48.8 trillion (approximately US$3 billion) allocation in the 2025 state budget. This ample investment underscores the government’s unwavering commitment to realizing nusantara’s full potential.
The ultimate goal, according to Hadimuljono, is for Nusantara to become “the political capital by 2028, allowing the executive, legislative, and judicial institutions to have their offices in the capital of Indonesia by that year.”
This strategic relocation promises to reshape Indonesia’s political landscape, fostering greater efficiency, clarity, and a more connected government.
