Customers to see water shortage

JAKARTA: PT PAM Lyonnaise Jaya (Palyja) said on Friday that the quality and quantity of its water supply could be affected by electrical problems being experienced by its raw water supplier Perum Jasa Tirta II at the Cawang Intake Water Works.

The company announced in its press release on Friday that PALYJA would use Banjir Canal to add more raw water for its production.

Due to the problem, customers in Muara Karang, Tanjung Duren, Dan Mogot, Jelambar, Jembatan Besi and Latumenten in West Jakarta; Harmoni, Menteng Wadas, Palbatu, Jl. Proklamasi and surroundings in Central Jakarta, are likely to be affected and potentially experience water shortages for several days.--JP
