[ジャカルタ ８日 ロイター] – Indonesia has announced that it has postponed the test run of a high-speed rail linking Jakarta and Bandung, West Java, which was scheduled for the 18th, until next month.

The project is part of China’s One Belt, One Road initiative and was scheduled to be completed by 2019. It also cost $1.2 billion more than originally planned.
KCIC has postponed test runs with passengers to early September, but said it will not delay the start of service on October 1.
