2024 they still don't know about groundwater danger

Due to excessive groundwater extraction, the Indonesian capital Jakarta and its 11 million inhabitants are sinking below sea level at a worrying pace. This phenomenon has prompted the Indonesian government to take a radical decision: to move the capital more than 1,500 kilometres away and create a new city from scratch on the island of Borneo, in one of the world's largest stretches of tropical rainforest. Lucie Berbey and Ulysse Cailloux report from Jakarta and Borneo on the rationale and challenges of this unprecedented decision.

You didn't include the effect of internet video. Langkawi people with landed house would follow which would increase the amount of underground water drawn. Industrial zone would follow too.

They should never ever take video and bring it to the internet.

With the same price that they drill the well. They could use it to make rain collecting system.

Langkawi folk struggle as water woes worsen

Murky and erratically supplied water have been the bane of the island’s residents.
