Not Yet Signing the Presidential Decree on the Transfer of the IKN, Jokowi: Moving House is Complicated, This is the Capital

"Dream - President Joko Widodo or Jokowi has yet to sign the presidential decree (Keppres) regarding the relocation of the capital city from Jakarta to Nusantara (IKN). Jokowi stated that the decree is not only about administration but must also consider the readiness on the ground. "We will see, we will see later. Because this involves not just administration, not just the decree or the presidential regulation, but the process on the ground must also be considered, the readiness on the ground must be assessed, the readiness for this relocation," explained Jokowi in the MBH IKN area, East Kalimantan, Monday, August 12, 2024, quoted from liputan6.com."

"Jokowi explained that moving the capital is not an easy job. He illustrated the complexity by comparing it to moving houses. 'Moving houses is already quite complicated, let alone moving the capital. Don't underestimate it,' said Jokowi."

"Previously, Jokowi stated that the presidential decree for the relocation of the capital from Jakarta to Nusantara, East Kalimantan, is not yet complete. Jokowi mentioned that the decree could be signed by Prabowo Subianto after being inaugurated as President of the Republic of Indonesia in October 2024. 'The decree can be signed before or after October. We are observing the situation on the ground,' said Jokowi at the Halim Perdanakusuma Air Force Base on Monday, July 8, 2024. The former Governor of DKI Jakarta stated that he does not want to force something that is not yet complete. According to him, the presidential decree for the relocation of the capital is contingent on the progress of the IKN development."

"We do not want to force something that should not be forced. Everything is viewed based on the progress in the field," he explained.

As information, Jokowi held the first plenary cabinet meeting at the Garuda Palace, IKN, East Kalimantan, on Monday, August 12, 2024. There are several issues that will be discussed with the Ministers, ranging from the development of IKN to the preparations for the transition of the capital city relocation.

"Yes, first, we will explain again about IKN. Second, related to PMI or Purchasing Management Index," said Jokowi at the MBH IKN Embung Area, Monday, August 12, 2024."

"The third, the other issues that are indeed for sustainability, what this transition is, what needs to be prepared by all ministries. That's about it," he added.
