The remaining 25% came from the consortium’s own funds. It was financed with a loan from the China Development Bank for 75% of the cost. The rail deal was signed in October 2015 after Indonesia selected China over Japan in competitive bidding. The trains were modified for Indonesia’s tropical climate and are equipped with a safety system that can respond to earthquakes, floods and other emergency conditions. It was planned to cost 66.7 trillion rupiah ($4.3 billion) but the amount ballooned to 113 trillion rupiah ($7.3 billion).

Widodo said that congestion is estimated to cost the economy $6.5 billion a year, and he urged people to use trains, subways and buses rather than private cars.Ĭhinese Premier Li Qiang took a test ride on the high-speed rail last week while visiting Jakarta for three days of talks with leaders of the Association of Southeast Asia Nations and other countries. “But most importantly, we want to encourage people to switch from cars to mass transportation to reduce congestion and pollution.” “This is civilization speed!” Widodo said. He told reporters after getting off the train that he felt comfortable “while sitting or walking” inside the bullet train at its top speeds. Widodo toured the railway’s first station, Halim KCBJ in eastern Jakarta, and then rode the made-in-China bullet train to Bandung’s Padalarang station, one of the railway’s four stations, in about 25 minutes, before taking a feeder train to downtown Bandung. The joint venture said the trains will be the fastest in Southeast Asia, with speeds of up to 350 kph (217 mph). The 142.3-kilometer (88.4-mile) railway was constructed by PT Kereta Cepat Indonesia-China, known as PT KCIC, a joint venture between an Indonesian consortium of four state-owned companies and China Railway International Co. 1 and will cut travel time between the two cities from the current three hours to about 40 minutes. It is to begin commercial operations on Oct. The $7.3 billion rail project, funded largely by China, connects the capital, Jakarta, and Bandung, the heavily populated capital of West Java province.
