JAKARTA -- Although Indonesia is preparing to relocate its capital, Jakarta will remain pivotal into the future, says its governor, Anies Baswedan.
"Jakarta will remain as the center of Indonesians' activity. ... I cannot foresee a shift in terms of changing the center of gravity of Indonesia," said Baswedan in a recent interview with Nikkei Asia on the role of Jakarta amid ongoing preparations to relocate the capital to Nusantara on Borneo.
