City Government and Public Works Ministry Collaborate to Repair Damaged Public Facilities

"Jakarta still needs various development, such as schools, hospitals, green open spaces, flood mitigation, and waste management. Unfortunately, we have to deal with this damage," she added.

Yuke also welcomed the cooperation in repairing the Pedestrian Bridge in the Senen area and in front of the Regional Police Headquarters, which was handled by the Jakarta Provincial Government and the Ministry of Public Works.
