Chapter 14
Capitals of East and Southeast Asia
This chapter covers the capitals of East and Southeast Asia that the essentials chapter left out, from Ulaanbaatar, the coldest capital in the world, to Dili on the island of Timor. Myanmar built a new capital, Naypyidaw, in the 2000s, and Indonesia is building one on Borneo to replace sinking Jakarta. Singapore is a city-state, so country and capital are one, and Brunei's capital has a whole village on stilts over the river.
