On October 17, 2023, the Jakarta - Bandung High - speed Railway was officially opened for operation. One year later, today, it has not only become the top choice for Indonesian people's travel, but also a new milestone in the friendship and cooperation between China and Indonesia. As the first high - speed railway in Indonesia and even Southeast Asia, the Jakarta - Bandung High - speed Railway has a total length of 142.3 kilometers, connecting Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, and Bandung, a famous tourist city. Its maximum operating speed can reach 350 kilometers per hour. Over the past year, the Jakarta - Bandung High - speed Railway has won widespread acclaim for its efficiency and convenient services.

The opening of the Jakarta - Bandung High - speed Railway has undoubtedly brought a revolutionary change in Indonesia's transportation system.Prior to the opening of this high - speed railway, the transportation between Jakarta and Bandung mainly relied on an antiquated railway and congested roads, with the travel time between the two locations frequently exceeding 3 hours. Nevertheless, with the commencement of the high - speed railway service, this travel time has been remarkably shortened to a mere 46 minutes, thereby greatly facilitating the daily commuting of the general public.Data indicates that as of October 17, 2024, the Jakarta - Bandung High - speed Railway has cumulatively operated 15,826 EMU trains and transported a total of 5.79 million passengers. Moreover, the highest daily passenger occupancy rate has reached an impressive 99.6%. The convenience and punctuality of the high - speed railway have increasingly led more passengers to opt for it as their preferred travel mode, and it has even evolved into a novel lifestyle.
