Jakarta (ANTARA) – Flood management and infrastructure repair are the priority proposals put forward in the Musyawarah Perencanaan Pembangunan (Musrenbang) in the Kelapa Gading sub-district, North Jakarta. “The majority of the residents’ proposals relate to infrastructure repair and flood management,” said the Head of Kelapa Gading sub-district, Anita Permatasari, in a statement in Jakarta on Wednesday. Overall, she said, a total of 221 proposals were successfully accommodated and will be submitted to the city level. She said that the largest number of proposals were directed to the Suku Dinas Bina Marga (Public Works Sub-department) with 67 proposals, followed by the Suku Dinas Perhubungan (Transportation Sub-department) with 58 proposals.

Hopefully, these proposals will bring benefits, not only to the residents of Kelapa Gading, but also to all of North Jakarta,” he said. He explained that the Musrenbang is a forum that brings together the government and the community to discuss and propose development plans in their area. “This activity aims to accommodate the aspirations of residents in order to support Jakarta in becoming a global city,” said Andri.
