Sandi Wants Quick Handling in Flood-Prone Areas

Jakarta Vice Governor, Sandiaga Uno wants quick handling in flood-prone areas. The preparedness of the apparatus should be done optimally in the rainy season.

Vigilance must be increased. Maintenance of embankments should be a concern. Moreover if there is inundation, pumps must be quickly alerted

He disclosed, with the change of weather, the apparatus could already predict which areas are vulnerable to flood. Nevertheless, disaster mitigation also applies to other areas.

"Vigilance must be increased. Maintenance of embankments should be a concern. Moreover if there is inundation, pumps must be quickly alerted," he expressed, Monday (11/13).

600 Joint Personnel Assembled at JIC to Hold Flood Handling Preparation

Another important thing, he added, is logistical support. The participation of communities and non-profit organizations to assist people affected by climate change also needs to be optimized.

"Social Dept. must prepare, but I also want to involve the participation of the people who want to give assistance, so the dept. will publish what is needed," he closed.
