Amid the siege of latent problems such as traffic jams and pollution, Jakarta continues to transform into one of the world's standard cities.
Heru Budi Hartono mentioned three main points of support for Jakarta in transforming. First, focus on accessibility, liveability, environmental improvement, and culture. Second, technology development and innovation. The latter is tolerance and internationalism. He believes that Jakarta is a modern city that meets the requirements of a global city.
For the past month, the issue of air pollution has still been widely discussed by netizens on social media. A number of contrary narratives have emerged from the public regarding the response of the local and central governments, which are perceived as too slow in addressing this issue. The responses range from formulating environmental pollution taxes, using electric vehicles, work from home policies , to emissions testing.Air pollution is one of the latent environmental problems in Jakarta.
The three sectors should ideally become the government's guide in formulating priority agendas to achieve global city standards. Looking back five years ago, Jakarta once ranked 56th as a global city. Unfortunately, this position has declined due to the weak response of the government in dealing with latent urban problems.
The next public dissatisfaction is related to traffic congestion management. Moreover, this issue is the peak of dissatisfaction as 67.1 percent express their dissatisfaction with the local government's performance in resolving the ongoing traffic congestion problem. The increasing number of motorized vehicles at all times makes traffic congestion a difficult problem to handle.
The development of Jakarta as a modern city has been its own advantage. Therefore, in order to achieve the target of a global city, the most urgent issues regarding congestion, floods, pollution, and crime need to be dealt with immediately. If these issues are addressed, efforts to build a global city can be accelerated.Traffic jam during rush hour on Casablanca Road, Jakarta, on Monday .
