        "summary": "The collapse of SDN 3 Sembung Gede school building in Tabanan has prompted a manual demolition effort by BPBD, TNI-Polri, and locals, but progress is slow due to sturdy structures and lack of heavy machinery. Officials recommend using heavy equipment to expedite the full demolition and site clearance to ensure safety for students and teachers. Partial school operations continue with some classes attending briefly before switching to online learning.",
        "content": "<p>Tabanan\u2019s BPBD, assisted by TNI-Polri and the community, is\ndemolishing the building of SDN 3 Sembung Gede in Kerambitan\nsub-district, which collapsed on Wednesday (6\/5\/2026). However, the\nbuilding levelling process is not proceeding optimally as it is still\nbeing carried out manually or by human labour. On-site observations show\nthe demolition using large ropes tied to the roof frame, which are then\npulled collectively. This process takes considerable time. In about\nthree hours of work from 08:00 WITA to 11:00 WITA, only two buildings\nwere successfully demolished. Meanwhile, the UKS room and one other\nclassroom remain standing. The Head of Elementary Schools Section at the\nTabanan District Education Office, I Made Sukanitera, stated when met at\nthe location that the full building demolition cannot be completed in\none day. After coordinating with BPBD, it was suggested to use heavy\nequipment to facilitate the demolition. \u201cThe first day of demolition\nfaced obstacles because some buildings still have sturdy structures. So,\nit is recommended to use heavy equipment,\u201d said Sukanitera. They hope\nthe building levelling process, including the transportation of\nremaining materials, can be completed soon to avoid endangering students\nand teachers. Meanwhile, the Principal of SDN 3 Sembung Gede, Pande\nKomang Juni Arsana, added that for the use of heavy equipment, they are\nstill awaiting instructions from BPBD. Including vehicles for\ntransporting building materials, which have also been discussed. \u201cWe\nplan to demolish part of the school fence to facilitate the entry of\nheavy equipment. Because access to the schoolyard is not feasible,\u201d he\nexplained. Although the work is in progress, on Wednesday, students in\ngrades IV, V, and VI were not given a holiday. Meanwhile, grades I, II,\nand III are still learning online. \u201cThis morning, students only came in\nbriefly, then we sent them home after receiving the MBG,\u201d he\nconcluded.<\/p>",
