Respondents who rejected the relocation cited more pressing issues that the government should prioritize over the capital city move.
The most pressing issue, chosen by 14.4% of respondents, was economic problems. Poverty and welfare issues ranked second, selected by 10.2%. Unemployment and job creation came in third, chosen by 6.4% of respondents. Issues in Papua were the fourth most pressing issue, also selected by 6.4% of respondents.
