On July 1, the Jakarta-Bandung high-speed railway, built by a Chinese enterprise, saw the laying of ballast tracks begin on its main line, marking the transition from the offline construction to the online construction. The railway is a landmark project of the Belt and Road Initiative and practical cooperation between China and Indonesia.
