        "content": "<p>Nagekeo Regency, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT), remains isolated after\nbeing struck by an earthquake. The situation is worsened by unstable\nmobile communication networks and electricity supply.<\/p>\n<p>This was revealed by NTT Regional Police Chief Inspector General Rudi\nDarmoko. Rudi said the communication disruptions made it difficult for\nhim to monitor the condition of affected residents and to coordinate\nwith Nagekeo Police Chief AKBP Rachmat Muchamad Salihi.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndeed, we ourselves also find it rather difficult to communicate\nwith the Police Chief because communication channels and electricity are\nnot yet stable there, so his reports are also intermittent,\u201d Rudi said\non Monday (17\/8\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>Rudi explained that aftershocks were also still occurring in Nagekeo.\nAccording to him, officers are still working to open access routes to\nfacilitate the distribution of logistics to residents there.<\/p>\n<p>He stressed that he had ordered the Nagekeo Police Chief to\nimmediately go to Tenda Kinde Village, Wolowae District, Nagekeo\nRegency, which remains isolated. Hundreds of residents are currently\nsheltering independently in distressing conditions at the Tenda Kinde\nVillage Office.<\/p>\n<p>According to information, residents there have not received\nassistance from any party. They are meeting their daily needs by pooling\nmoney to buy basic necessities, and gathering whatever food remains from\nexisting supplies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInformation like this is what we hope will continue to be conveyed\nto us so that we can follow it up immediately on the ground,\u201d Rudi\nsaid.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Rudi said police would soon prioritise assistance\nin the form of portable Wi-Fi units sent from National Police\nHeadquarters to be installed in Nagekeo. The aim is to facilitate\ncommunication and coordination with victims, officers and others.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNational Police Headquarters has also sent 10 portable Wi-Fi units,\nprepared to help affected areas experiencing internet connectivity\ndisruptions,\u201d Rudi concluded.<\/p>",
