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)
