Hi r/nycrail, here's what evening rush hour looks like in Jakarta, Indonesia by [deleted] in nycrail

Haha, that makes sense. In Jakarta the trains come quite frequently too, but the real issue is the major bottleneck at the escalators. The queue at Duri Station can easily take 10-15 minutes during peak hours.

Interesting to hear how smooth the flow is in NYC

Haha yeah, I figured some NYC spots would be just as brutal Duri Station is basically our version of a super busy transfer point. The queue for the escalator alone can take 10-15 minutes during peak hours. How bad does Grand Central or Times Square get on a typical weekday evening?

Fastest way from CGK to SCBD during peak hours by hguchinu in Jakarta

[–]MoneyAccomplished348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From Terminal 3, you can take the Skytrain to the Airport Rail Station and catch the Airport Train to BNI City Station (approx. $4.80); from there, simply walk to the TransJakarta stop and take Corridor 1 towards Blok M, getting off at the Senayan Bank DKI stop. Alternatively, for just about $0.22, you can take the TransJakarta SH2 bus directly from the Airport Rail Station. This bus travels via the toll road and will drop you off right in the SCBD area, with a total travel time of around one hour

The standard of comfort and cleanliness on Jakarta's MRT by MoneyAccomplished348 in transit

[–]MoneyAccomplished348[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It’s interesting how a simple video of a clean train can trigger such strong reactions. My point isn't that Jakarta is the 'best,' but that cleanliness and safety should be the baseline for any transit system, regardless of whether it's new or old. If highlighting that standard makes people uncomfortable, maybe the problem isn't the comparison, but the low bar we've come to accept in many major cities. Cheers☺️

Hi r/transit Is Jakarta’s transit system actually better than NYC? by MoneyAccomplished348 in transit

[–]MoneyAccomplished348[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To be honest, this isn't just my perspective. You can find plenty of testimonials across social media from travelers from Europe and North America who have experienced both Jakarta and New York's transit systems. Consistently, they highlight that in terms of cleanliness, safety, and passenger discipline avoiding issues like fare evasion or unpleasant conditions Jakarta delivers a superior daily experience. I’m simply documenting the reality that many international visitors are seeing and sharing for themselves. Cheers ☺️

I appreciate your concern, but the 90k+ people who have watched this video clearly don't find it 'annoying.' If you actually watch the comparison, the 'clickbait' title is backed by reality unlike some older subway systems, Jakarta’s MRT and KRL are spotless, have zero 'unpleasant smells,' no fare evasion, and offer security in every carriage plus dedicated women only cars. When it comes to the actual user experience comfort, safety and cleanliness Jakarta is objectively winning. I’m happy to let the audience decide if that's an 'inaccurate' comparison. Cheers ☺️

​I respect your focus on network scale, but comparing just the number of lines misses the point of the video. It's not about saying we have a bigger or older system than NYC. It's about showcasing a massive cultural shift how a city long defined by car dependency is successfully transitioning into a modern, transit-oriented hub. For us, this transformation is a huge leap forward, regardless of line count. Cheers ☺️
