        "summary": "In Taman Mangu Indah, South Tangerang, numerous homes are being sold off due to frequent flooding caused by the Ciputat River overflow, prompting residents to abandon the area. Local observations reveal spanduks advertising sales on houses directly opposite the river, with visible flood marks up to 30 cm on walls and cracked, moss-covered roads that exacerbate the issue during rains. RT head Imawan Susanto notes that flooding now occurs even with light rain, shifting from once every five years to multiple times annually, highlighting the urgent need for improved flood management infrastructure.",
        "content": "<p>South Tangerang, Kompas.com \u2013 Several homes in the Taman Mangu Indah\narea, Pondok Aren, South Tangerang, were seen displaying banners reading\n\u201cfor sale\u201d on Sunday (3\/5\/2026). This situation has arisen because the\narea is frequently hit by flooding due to overflows from the Ciputat\nRiver. Based on Kompas.com\u2019s observations at the site, sales banners\nwere visible at several points in the housing complex, particularly on\nhomes located directly across from the river. This location is said to\nbe the most often submerged. Meanwhile, some other homes are still\noccupied, but brown-coloured water stains are visible on walls and\nfences. On several neighbourhood roads, the asphalt appears cracked and\nuneven. Through the cracks, remnants of green moss are visible,\nindicating that the area is often waterlogged. These gaps are also said\nto frequently serve as seepage routes for river water during rain,\nmaking the roads damp and slippery. On some parts of residents\u2019 homes,\nflood marks are visible reaching about 30 centimetres, marked by the\nbrownish discolouration of the walls. The head of RT 04 RW 12 Taman\nMangu Indah, Imawan Susanto (52), stated that flooding now occurs more\nfrequently, even triggered by light rain. \u201cNow flooding is constant; a\nlittle rain and it floods. It floods all the time,\u201d said Imawan when met\nby Kompas.com at the location on Sunday. He explained that previously,\nflooding only happened at certain periods, about once every five years.\nBut now, it can occur several times in a single year. \u201cEven several\ntimes a year; sometimes I feel sorry for my residents whose homes\nhaven\u2019t been renovated and often get submerged,\u201d he said.<\/p>",
