Progress and Development of Ibu Kota Nusantara

The development of Ibu Kota Nusantara (“IKN”) as Indonesia’s new capital city is a project that has attracted significant attention, particularly in its construction progress. The Government stipulates the implementation of the preparation, construction, and relocation of the national capital city through Law Number 3 of 2022 as lastly amended by Law Number 21 of 2023 regarding the National Capital (the “IKN Law”).

The development plan for IKN is further regulated in Presidential Regulation Number 63 of 2022 regarding Details of Master Plan for Ibu Kota Nusantara (“PR 63/2022”). In order to accelerate the development of IKN, the President recently issued Presidential Regulation Number 75 of 2024 on Acceleration of Development of IKN (“PR 75/2024”).  Please see our Newsflash on PR 75/2024 in Acceleration of Development of Nusantara Capital
