He added the cleaning along one kilometer also involved caretakers of RT, RW, dasawisma, jumantik, LMK, FKDM and Karang Taruna.
Head of RW 03 Kwitang Urban Village, Ridwan, appreciated the cleaning run by the joint personnel. He admitted residents had difficulty to go down and clean the riverbank since the location is under the retaining wall.
"Hopefully similar activity can be carried routinely especially ahead of rainy season," he admitted.
