We're currently continuing to intensify PSN

"We're currently continuing to intensify PSN, as dengue fever cases in South Jakarta since January-April have been quite high," he expressed, Tuesday (4/23).

Of 153 buildings inspected, the mosquito larvae was still detected in 13 buildings. They were found in used bottles, plastic waste, plant pots, or leftover puddles.

"Residents must be more active by becoming independent Jumantik (wiggler hunter). All elements need synergy to eradicate this mosquito nest. We all have to be alert and of course disciplined in cleanliness," he explained.

One of the residents from RW 09, Trisna (53) admitted he routinely cleaned items that had the potential to contain standing water.

"Hopefully, all residents will be moved to keep the environment clean and prevent flooding," he stated.
