However, with the development of society and population growth, the railways in Indonesia couldn’t meet people’s needs. The country needed new railways!

It’s worth celebrating that China has helped Indonesia build a high-speed railway! It is the first high-speed railway in the country, as well as in Southeast Asia.

Thanks to the high-speed railway, it takes much less time to travel between Jakarta and Bandung. “It used to take about 3 hours to travel between Jakarta and Bandung, but the time is now about 40 minutes by taking the new train,” says someone from Bandung. The railway brings a lot of benefits to people along the way. For example, it provides lots of jobs during its building. It also helps with the business along the way.

High-speed railways meet people’s need to move between different places.
