As for Naypyidaw, if you read the news about the situation there, you will understand why Myanmar's new capital has become a ghost town. The military there were so bad that they did not hesitate to kill their own people for the sake of state power. Naypydaw is a clear example of the military's ambition to build a city for itself, and it's clear the people don't want to live with a group of serial killers.

Riki This city lacks basic infrastructure needed for the people who would work there, housing (that was built partly), schools & colleges for their kids, transport to cater for the expected population of at least half a million. Three years ago, one of the school children (a girl) was raped, as children had to go to schools far away in a city without people but only buildings.

Myanmar is filled with groups that want to become their own country and they've been in civil war since 1948, so understanding it from that perspective makes more sense. Still, it's like the Tatmadaw played Cities: Skylines for a few hours and then said "You know, I'm something of a civil engineer myself". Myanmar has tried to legitimize Naypyidaw by hosting the 2013 SEA Games, an East Asia Summit, and two ASEAN summits, and yet the place still feels empty and spread out because the military doesn't know how to build a proper city. Heck, Naypyidaw is ironically probably most famous for a workout girl dancing while the military headed for the Pyidaungsu Hluttaw assembly complex during a coup in 2021.

I'm glad you see the problem ahead before the construction is even up. From the moment I started reading articles online, I could already see one hundred problems with the infrastructure (soulless buildings with no character or charm from its culture), movement (transportation), security (police + military), economy (buying + selling + trash again building up in mass throughout the city), societal cultures (there are so many religions, languages, and non-dialects that will clash), ecology (number of people who should buy cars, # people who should use public transportation, # people who will only need electric scooters, bicycles) also the input of Solar, Air, and Water based-clean energy. By some time in the future, there should be remote schooling and public school that allow students to arrive at their destination without fear of being shot while attending. Building a city seems exciting, risky and a great investment but they *the men and women behind the Govt should be adjusting and securing EVERYONE no matter what status or gender or religious belief their citizens are, through a law that says 'You are safe and we will make sure of it'. But they never will.* Some of these projects seem like vanity projects, while others are moving their people for security and prosperity. Sorry for the long explanation I had a lot on my mind. 😊

@@KoeSeer well, there are several reasons why they inevitably have to move according to government regulations. first, they are civil servants. Their job is to fully serve the people, and be bound by government regulations. like it or not. Second, the government is not that stupid in building a new capital city. in the design that has been formalized by the new law, there are many buildings that will accommodate the secondary and tertiary needs of the civil servants, such as schools with good accreditation and international standards, lifestyle malls, international hospitals, massive public transportation that covers all areas of the city, modern residential blocks, recreation areas, city parks, places of worship, and so on with the hope that they will feel at home. and one more thing, the city will not be in the middle of a forest, but a city based on forests and nature. after all, by driving 20 minutes, the capital city is already surrounded by the two most developed big cities on the Indonesian part of the island of Borneo, the cities of Balikpapan and Samarinda that will be the satellites cities in the metropolitan area of the capital. There is no reason for them not to feel comfortable anymore.

A lot of these cities were founded so long ago that the environment and situation has changed drastically. Most cities started as small settlements made by average workers looking for a place to prosper an settle down. No one knew cities would ever hold tens of millions of people in some cases. I feel like having modern knowledge and using it to plan the site of a new city can prove to steer some of these nations in a better direction with a more stable and secure capital. However, modern knowledge does not mean "infallible". These people can still make grave mistake in the planning, placement, or execution of these giant projects. It's a very difficult thing, to account for every possible thing that could be a problem for the new burgeoning cities.

Sejong will NOT be the new national capital of the ROK but rather an ADMINISTRATIVE capital like the one Egypt is building. Meaning the ROK will have two capitals. Also, it wasn't 2002 but 2003 as it was ROK president Roh Moo-hyun who became president in February 2003, who proposed moving the national capital. But because of backlash from his opposition as well as a court ruling that Seoul MUST remain the national capital under the constitution, the Roh administration was forced to modify the project to relocate the majority of government ministries and institutions to Sejong. And it would become a special self-governing city in 2012, and eventually an administrative capital. Sejong was named in honor of King Sejong the Great, the fourth king of the Joseon Dynasty

Exactly. If they are going to build something semi-new with old-world charm it should be inspired by their own cultures and songs (of some sonnets they had/still have). The new city could be their new base for city and town dwellings. While the previous city could be turned into smaller villages and reconstructed bridges, buildings, etc. These villages can be for the people who have lived there for so long. Similar to what Ireland and Britain have, old towns turned into villages where people continue to live and work and bring in tourism. And sharing their family's passed-down special skills. I have seen Jakarta's and South India's baskets, blankets and clothing made by hand. I bought a bunch of baskets that I brought home. We also found some amazing blankets, and scarfs *beautifully handmade* Now that would be awesome! I will gladly go back and continue to support the artisans, and even learn their ways and have those skills shown on KZitem so more people know about them.

What would keep people there without any history or extended family in the area? It's like half-assed socialism

750 thousand might sound a lot but you see for the size of Naypyidaw it is very spread out. Lets compare it to a capital of similar population Naypyidaw , Washington, D.C which has around 712,816 for 177km^2 in comparsion Naypyidaw has around 750,000 for 7054 KM^2 if you calculate the desnsity of population , Naypyidaw has 106.3 people PER KM^2 but Washington has 4027 PER KM^2 thats a 3799% difference!

These cities will fill. People said the same things about Canberra in Australia in the 1930's and Brasilia in the 1970's. They fill over time and that's the intension. You covered the defensive aspect in Myanmar but the same thing applies for the others. Seoul is within range of North Korean artillery. Cairo and Jakarta have had 2 civil wars each and both are hot beds of hardline islamist activity. The other locations are neutral and defendable. Even the line in Saudi Arabia meet the same criteria. Its along way from their enemies, its religiously neutral, its uncrowded, it fosters the idea of modernity and innovation. In all cases history and heritage does not block growth. Ever tried to run optic fiber though 14 hundred year old walls?

The relocation of the capital to Sejong is difficult to become an official legal capital due to the Constitutional Court's unconstitutional ruling. According to the government plan, it will build a new National Assembly building and the presidential office in Sejong by 2027. Perhaps unofficially, Seoul will be the economic and cultural capital, and Sejong will be the political and administrative capital. P.S. Sejong is the king of Joseon who created Hangul, the Korean alphabet, and a great man most respected by Koreans.

It's like no one has ever learned from Brasilia. Big grand planned cities based on the elite's tastes never work out as planned or function as actual nice places to live and work because they're always based on "helicopter urbanism". Stuff that looks cool to a leader from a top down view on a plan, big grand streets and buildings, a wasteful abundance of greenspace, yet a total reliance on cars. It's the same car-centric anti-urban ideologies driving all these disasters. A functional healthy city can't be designed like sprawling gated community.

Not really...Myanmar's was moved because the Military dictatorship had too much money and was in fear to get overthrown easily in population centers (now more than ever, after they overthrew the kinda democratically elected government in 2021); South Korea moved because Sejong is more central and therefore easier to access, while the real estate prices were planned to be lower, which they currently are. In Egypt...probably the same as in Myanmar I would guess, at the same time following a trend on the Arabian peninsula with crazy prestige projects. And Nusantra mostly happened because of the rising sealevel.

Why are they empty? Well, I can answer for three of these cities: 1. They're built by dictatorships. 2. The military officers that ordered their construction all received massive kickbacks- assuming they did not own the construction companies outright. 3. They do not have the necessary support infrastructure. Conclusion- no one wants to live there. Eventually they will collapse into slums, and then derelict wastelands... And then, in about fifty years, they will become post-apocalyptic movie sets. I don't know about Sejong. But it still sounds like a really bad idea.
