According to him, channel is normalized as requested by the local residents. In rainy season, he added, this channel often causes inundation on the area because it can't be functioned optimally.

"We deploy 30 personnel every day to normalize it. At first, our target is to finish it in November, but due to rough terrain, maybe we finish it in December," he mentioned.
