Flower park

Flower park

From Media Indonesia

The condition of the Flower Park located at Cengkareng Timur village, West Jakarta, is bad. Many of the trees are dying because of neglect. The park was spruced up in the fiscal year 1993-1994. But after three months the park returned to its neglected state. This is partly because the quality of the work of the contractor was below par.

When residents tried to complain to the contractor's supervisor about the bad work, he just laughed at them. It is particularly distressing to see goats freely eat the foliage in the park, yet nobody takes the trouble to chase them away. It is a sense of community that is lacking in the residents.

I would like to call on the Jakarta Administration or the West Jakarta Mayor to consider revitalizing the park, as it is not only enjoyed by elderly people but also by school children in the area.
