Villa Mas Garden residents protest

JAKARTA (JP): Residents of the Villa Mas Garden housing
complex in North Bekasi have lodged a written protest with PT
JIT, the developer of the complex, over the poor condition of
public facilities built by the company.

The letter was signed by head of the neighborhood community
(RW) Jeffry Munir and his secretary Budjang Anwar. Copies of the
letter were sent to various institutions, including the Bekasi
city administration, Suara Pembaruan daily reported.

Jeffry said all public facilities and infrastructures in the
complex were dilapidated.

"The streets are full of holes. In the current rainy season
the streets are easily inundated by water, causing floods," he
said.

He said in the protest letter the residents have urged PT JIT
to immediately construct a concrete dam along the irrigation
duct on Block C and D to prevent the complex from being flooded
when rain comes. (bas)
