It caters to an international audience who have an interest in and want to know about the social, economic, investment opportunities, political, and cultural dynamics of Jakarta and Indonesia, or perhaps are simply interested in Jakarta and Indonesia. Jaktimes.com can be the right reference choice for the global community.
The name Jaktimes is an acronym or abbreviation of The Jakarta Times, and it is here to respond to Jakarta’s position as a Global City or Indonesia’s economic center city after the discussion of moving the nation’s capital to the Capital City of Nusantara (IKN) in East Kalimantan.
Jakarta is the largest city on the southern side of the world. Therefore, as stated by Anies Baswedan (Former Governor of DKI Jakarta), Jakarta should position itself as a global player assuming both local and international audiences. Jakarta should not be a mere spectator of global movements but should actively engage as a global actor.
