"Cool air, clean air. As we dream of that we want a green capital city, be it its energy, electric vehicles, environment, air and everything," he told journalists at the event.
Widodo emphasized that Nusantara would symbolize Indonesia's growing economic and geopolitical status, distinct from the colonial-era government offices of Jakarta.
Construction on Nusantara began in 2022 after plans were announced in 2019, with the aim of addressing Jakarta's severe issues of pollution, overpopulation, and flooding.
Prabowo Subianto, set to take over from Widodo in October, insists he will continue the Nusantara project, highlighting its importance for Indonesia's future.
