Flood is the best friend of Jakarta in the Rainy


Jakarta flood’s news has been booming in the mind of Indonesian people. How can ? It’s because of, a mostly Indonesian press always break the news about that in daily, so we as a citizens will easier to know it. One of Jakarta citizens said that the flood already became the peeve thing in there. Here, I will show you about 3 headline news I read in The Jakarta post, actually I got it at the 3 difference times.

The excess water by 3 days Cloudburst there is the main caused  of Jakarta flood, aside from continued supply of high seawater, some dykes that couldn’t beer the water amount, and also the defective pump in Cideng river. North Jakarta is the largest zone of flood inundation, because of it’s near from sea. As we have seen, this Jakarta flood incur both of citizens casualties and properties.

An article preach me that polices still aware thief in Pluit, North Jakarta. They had been catch 5 thieves rob belongings in 7-eleven shop at Sunday. Which is that kind of crime shouldn’t be happen in that precarious situation. Jakarta flood caused the Jakarta citizens infected some diseases, lack of foods and beverages, also lost their prosperity. Because of this, almost of Jakarta people give a sea of claims to government, The Association of General Insurance Companies (AAUI), also to PT. Jasindo about their broken belongings and vehicles.

Based on my mind, in that case government with Jokowi as the governance have been show their better work, they effort to give ministration to the Jakarta citizens, which consists of foods, clothing, blankets, drugs, etc. Despite there is obstacles to do it, because of the cash disbursements to municipalities agency has been late, and ultimately that affect the procurement of the relief supplies. But after all, the government has improved their performance in that regard. On the other hand, the government should not constantly do the buildings construction in Jakarta recall the limit vacant area in there. It would be better if the buildings which has no function anymore replaced by a city forest which could store the water, although it will be difficult to do. About this issue, it will be better if the Jakarta residents be the thinker also, so they should not only give a sea of complains to the government, but they should have awareness to make Jakarta be spared from flood. In fact, the biggest fatality lies on their hands who like littering. The residents can get to work with the minor things like no longer littering on the river, and reforestation on the vacant lands. Moreover, in such case we can still find volunteers with their positive activities who find and provide assistance to the victims. In which, those activities will help them during the late aids from government.

It same like what I said before,if that third articles I got from The Jakarta Post Newspaper, because of I prefer to find some other news from there, too. All the articles in there are using English, so I can learn more in that language. Additionally, it is easy to find the news through online, and can find more related articles just with one click. In addition, by the pictures in each articles make the reader imagine the real scene while reading that.  Maybe  for the drawback, the unfriendly vocabularies in the articles make it slightly difficult to understand what the story essences than the general one, Indonesian language newspaper. English article will bring on challenging !

All of above is just my point of views to that issue, if there is some mistakes please apologize me as one of the commentator. For getting more complete information, check this out !
