Bogor builds 300 latrines<\/p>\n
BOGOR (JP): Bogor regency administration is building 300
\nfamily latrines and 300 house floors in nine villages of three
\ndistricts.<\/p>\n
The week-long program, which started Tuesday, is being carried
\nout in cooperation with four Moslem traditional boarding schools
\n(Santri Raksa Desa). The cost is Rp 130 million (US$54,167) and
\nthe funds were provided by the regency administration and
\ndonations from the general public.<\/p>\n
Many villagers do not have latrines in their houses so they
\nuse the drainage systems for this purpose.<\/p>\n
"But since housing complexes were built the drainage systems
\nhave been buried so now they go to the nearby waterways for
\nnature's calls," said the head of the neighborhood unit.<\/p>\n
"We are happy the program provides latrines," said Gunawan,
\nthe neighborhood leader.<\/p>\n
According to the head of the Bogor Health Ministry Office,
\nAisyah Wan Granie, it was the fourth project carried out under
\nthe Santri Raksa Desa.<\/p>\n
"We have built 2,102 latrines in the three previous programs,"
\nAisyah said. (13\/24)<\/p>",
