Floods still pose potential danger

Floods still pose potential danger

From Berita Yudha

Through the Ministry of Public Works the Jakarta
administration has reportedly received a contribution of hundreds
of billions of rupiah to anticipate and handle floods which may
hit Jakarta.

However, this fund does not guarantee that future floods will
be completely overcome. They have yet to build a dam, install
water pumps, construct ditches and build water gates and flood
control structures at various locations.

Another crucial factor that is closely related to floods is
the community's lack of discipline and awareness of the danger of
floods. Many people throw away their garbage into rivers and
ditches and construct shabby huts along river banks.
