Water supply interrupted

The city-owned water company PAM Jaya temporarily stops the
supply of water in a number of areas throughout the city for two
days from yesterday.

Eben Koesbini T., technical director of the company, said on
Wednesday that the temporary stoppage takes place while the firm
drains and cleans up its reservoir in its Pejompongan II
production center in Bendungan Hilir, Central Jakarta.

He said that the stoppage affects water supplies in the areas
of Tanah Abang, Menteng, Kemayoran, Penjaringan, Muara Karang,
Jalan Lodan, Tanjung Priok, Tambora, Tomang, Palmerah and Grogol.

Customers are requested to be understanding about the
stoppage, he said, adding that the water supply will return to
normal today as soon as the cleaning activities are completed.
