We drained the channel to reduce the puddle

Due to shallowing, the water channel located at RW 17 residential, Kelapa Gading Timur Urban Village, North Jakarta, cleaned. 

"Rain started pouring down North Jakarta since yesterday. Kelapa Gading, is one of puddle-central locations. We drained the channel to reduce the puddle," said Head of Kelapa Gading Timur Urban Village, Tulus Harjo, Monday (11/9). 

According to Harjo, to clean the 150-meter channel, as many as 31 Infrastructures and Public Facilities Handling (PPSU) officers were deployed to the field. They only equipped with sober tools such as shovel, sickle and broom. 

"We'll keep cleaning residential channels. Residents are also hoped to keep the cleanliness of the channels," he hoped.
