Indonesia

This is Pekan Baru. An A4 sheet could capture the map of it. Simple.

This city surprised me in its cleaniness, not on par to singapore but well maintained. However, taking a closer look, the main streets are clean, but not in areas beyond that.

Referencing to their official website, cleaniness goes top in the list. Much effort & resources would have been poured in. But, the impact is probably limited.

Going beyond, the traffic is chaotic as it could be. Motorcycles are everywhere. Riders are without helmet. There is almost no traffic rules.

Due to oil discovery, the city has seen good development throughout the years. It claims to be the highest income/capita city. But, apparent lack of planning, still not bringing the best out of its resources. The greatest asset - people, are not well equipped with english, to bridge themselves to the world.

The planning, not just on traffic/roads, but also on education - could only add more weight to the already smart & hardworking people.

The contrast to Singapore could only tell how much has Singapore government done for its nation.
