em>Manggarai train station in South Jakarta will become a final transit hub for an upcoming high-speed train called a hydrogen hi-speed rail super highway (H2RSH), an official said. Governor Fauzi Bowo said the city would develop the Manggarai train station to become a decent transit hub that would attract people to use public transportation efficiently.
"We will make it an interesting station for passengers. It will be connected to the Transjakarta busway," he said Friday, adding that the high speed train would not enter Gambir station and Tanah Abang in Central Jakarta, as well as Kota station in West Jakarta.

This technology is so advanced that it doesn't even have a prototype. Guaranteed it will become another white elephant.

Go work it, Fauzi Bowo! Go, city planner! Seriously, we have to go all-out to plan the city to make it a nice place to live. Jakartans deserve to have decent facilities, go for it!

This is a joke. Nobody in the United States or elsewhere in the world consider this hydrogen high-speed train to be a serious mode of transportation.
I am ready to bet Rp 1 million (US$107) that it will never happen in 2012 or even in 2013. Wake up, Indonesia!

Zero logic. JFK said: "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country".

I wonder who paid for these so-called NGOs to demonstrate. It must be the usual well-known cowards.
