Nusantara is Indonesia's purpose-built replacement capital for Jakarta, rising from Borneo rainforest since 2022. Its government core runs a 5G-linked autonomous-bus trial inside a zone where 65% of the land is reserved as forest — but by 2026 the relocation had slowed sharply, with the state budget cut 85% and Indonesia's Constitutional Court confirming Jakarta remains the legal capital for now.
