Current rail systems in Jakarta play a role as the transportation of local residents. But, middle-class people try to avoid using the systems for fear of safety on train. And, the fact that most of the rolling stocks are imported from overseas worsens impression on the systems.

In addition to that, the current ones are not accessible to Business District. So, subway systems will have to be installed to supplement them.
