    One more trip on Indonesia’s first high-speed train



    I wasn’t done with Indonesia’s first high-speed train between Jakarta and Bandung after I used it for a ride from Tegalluar to Halim. I’m going to test it one more time from Halim to Padalarang, with a proper connection to Bandung station. I also explain why Padalarang station is better than Tegalluar station.

    Material recorded October 18, 2023.

      The station is way too far away from city center. The purpose of using this fast train is to shorten our travel time but in reality it still takes a freaking long time to reach our destination.

      if this train can get people to switch from cars to trains. This can save on fuel subsidies, reduce air pollution and pay off debt. and stage 2 Bandung Surabaya 650 km can be started. next year

      I am glad you folks enjoy the Chinese HSR infrastructure project for Indonesia. May they further invite China to do the rest if they are willing to put up the money.
