Graves in Kapuk Teko Cemetery Can Now Be Seen

The heirs of Kapuk Teko Public Cemetery (TPU), Kampung Apung, RW 01, Kapuk Urban Village, Cengkareng Sub-District, West Jakarta, can finally see their family graves. After inundated for 24 years for as deep as two meters, the cemetery has totally dried. The gravestones can be clearly seen now even though they are still covered by mud. Moreover, the ground of residents’ settlement and the connecting bridge in that area can also be seen although still covered by half meter high mud.
