Residents moved from critical area

BOGOR (JP): Over 170 families from Cileuksa Lebak subdistrict
have been relocated from their subsiding land to the neighboring
area of Cileuksa Utara, which lies 2 kilometers away.

Spokesman for the Bogor regency administration M. Sjahuri said
on Wednesday the land on which the residents' houses were located
had subsided as a result of a landslide which occurred in May of
last year. Geologists have declared the Cileuksa Lebak
subdistrict unsafe for the construction of housing complexes.

Sjahuri said the administration had bought six hectares of
land on which houses for the residents would be built. He added
that the administration would need Rp 600 million to finance the
house construction project at the new location.

Regent Agus Utara Effendi also said that his administration
had earmarked Rp 30 million for the construction of mosques
across the town. (21)
