Two Crossing Channels Built to Overcome Inundation in Tugu SelatanAccording to him, this river should be cleaned from water hyacinth since it is potential to inhibit water flow, especially during heavy rain. Moreover, Cakung Lama River is the estuary of all micro channels in Sukapura Urban Village.
"Cakung Lama River flows to Cakung Drain. Thus we want to prevent it from being clogged because when it is clogged it could cause inundation in Sukapura and its surrounding areas," he asserted.
