A Kebayoran Lama Sub-sector police post that is located in front of Pasar Kebayoran Lama, South Jakarta, demolished, Wednesday (5/18). This is because the building as wide as 60 square meters stands on the water channel.

Police post makes the street narrow and stand on the channel, that's why we demolish

Kebayoran Lama Sub-district, Munjirin Rasyid said the demolishment shows that the city administration will not hesitate to control illegal buildings. It also aims to smoothen enter-exit access of Pasar Kebayoran Lama Station. Afterwards, public minivan D01 (Ciputat-Kebayoran Lama) will operate through such street.

"Police post makes the street narrow and stand on the channel, that's why we demolish. Street towards Kebayoran Lama Station can also be passed four-wheeled vehicle," he expressed.

Chairman of Kebayoran Lama Sector Police, Agus Rizal supports demolishment, because the police post was built on the channel. Additionally, it can also be reflection for public to always support the government program.

"We give example to the public and support program from the government. We already have replacement near Kebayoran Lama Flyover," he told.
