Penajam Paser Utara Regency, Indonesia – Indonesia has suggested crowdfunding the relocation of the country’s capital after a major investor declined to back the $32bn project, prompting ridicule from critics and questions about ownership of the planned city.
The unorthodox proposal came to light on Monday when the head of the government agency behind the plan told local media the option is being explored after Japan’s SoftBank Group Corp opted not to invest in the project.
