The President, accompanied by First Lady Hj Iriana Jokowi, planted trees after the unification of land and water from 34 provinces in Indonesia in Bejana Nusantara.

In addition to President Jokowi and governors throughout Indonesia, a number of Ministers of the Advanced Indonesia Cabinet have also planted trees including the Chair of the MPR RI Bambang Soesatyo and Head of the IKN Authority, Bambang Susantono. The development of IKN Nusantara has full support as well as the approval of the DPR and governors throughout Indonesia.
