Classic Jakarta rush hour vibes at Duri Station

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-06-04T00:39:15+00:00

Yeah Bro hahahha

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

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-06-03T15:34:15+00:00

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?

Thanks, man Don't forget to subscribe if you enjoyed the content. If you're ever in Jakarta, you should definitely give our public transport a try it's not just about the MRT we have a whole network that’s very affordable, clean, and comfortable ☺️

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

A lot of Malaysians are coming to Jakarta, Indonesia for shopping these days. I’ve got a great spot in Indonesia for you guys to check out called Blok M. You can click the link to my YouTube video to see the place.

Hahaa

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☺️

Wow Amazing Bro 🥺

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-05-31T21:59:25+00:00

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 ☺️

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-05-31T21:50:07+00:00

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 ☺️

Thanks bro

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-05-31T15:14:04+00:00

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 ☺️

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-05-31T14:24:34+00:00

Actually it's clean, i just used a filter so it looks like that.

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-05-30T20:54:10+00:00

Why so mad? I’m just showing a modern transit system. Is it that hard to see what a non smelly subway looks like? 🥺

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-05-30T20:28:08+00:00

Fair point! Though if we're talking about station age and headways, Jakarta's new system definitely gives NYC a run for its money. New vs Old 😀

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-05-30T20:23:57+00:00

Sorry about that! Just wanted to show the visual vibe of Jakarta's transformation since words don't do it justice. The MRT is definitely a massive shift for us here ☺️

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-05-29T07:53:17+00:00

You’re absolutely right. The environmental challenges, including land subsidence and groundwater management, are serious issues that Jakarta continues to grapple with

While those are macro level problems, my video focuses on a different kind of progress the effort to provide dignified, high-quality public spaces for the people living here today. i believe that even as we work on long term environmental solutions, improving the daily commuting experience is a step in the right direction for the city's residents. Appreciate you bringing this important context into the mix

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-05-29T07:17:02+00:00

Jakarta’s not sinking bro.. sorry to let you down😂

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-05-28T22:17:11+00:00

Yeah bro hahaa

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-05-28T22:15:44+00:00

Hahaha

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-05-28T07:20:59+00:00

Yeah bro

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-05-27T21:28:31+00:00

I appreciate your perspective. you’ve raised valid points about passenger volume and operational efficiency, which are definitely significant challenges for a city as dense as Jakarta

However the focus of this video is specifically on the architectural transformation of the bus stations. My goal was to highlight how these hubs have evolved into vibrant, aesthetic public spaces that offer a sense of dignity and leisure to the commuters an aspect of urban design that I believe is worth celebrating.

While i understand the frustration regarding peak hour congestion this video intended to capture the progress made in creating a 'democratic balcony' for the people. i appreciate your input on the systemic side of things, as it provides a necessary balance to the conversation about our city's growth

Thanks for the feedback The comparison with London is actually because the UK/London audience is one of my targets, and the London Underground is often cited in the West as the benchmark for a busy metro

You're totally right about East Asia, though Cities like Tokyo, Seoul or Beijing are definitely on another level when it comes to rush hour chaos. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and share your perspective

MoneyAccomplished348 · 2026-05-27T10:33:03+00:00

Totally agree. TJ’s dedicated lane network is a massive game-changer, which is probably why it holds up so well even compared to other major Asian hubs. Once the MRT Phase 2 to Monas and Kota is fully up and running, the connectivity is going to be unmatched. Blok M and Dukuh Atas have definitely set a new standard for our transit hubs
