Sunter River Normalization Hampered by Land Acquisition

The normalization work of Sunter River, especially at RW 04, Cipinang Melayu Urban Village, Makasar Sub-District, East Jakarta, are still hampered by land acquisition process. It happens because many residents, whose lands to be acquisitioned, do not have complete documents, so the compensation payment cannot be conducted yet.

From 41 landownership certificates submitted, only six certificates that are complete and safe for the compensation payment to be conducted

According to Head of Infrastructures and Utilities Network and Facilities Division for Jakarta Public Works Department, Edy Sudrajat, actually many RW 04 Cipinang Melayu have submitted their landownership certificates.
