JAKARTA - Acting Head of the DKI Jakarta Water Resources Agency, Ika Agustin Ningrum, said that he would repair the leaking coastal safety embankment in North Jakarta in the near future. The leak of this embankment was viral on social media. The owner of the Instagram account @jerhemynemo uploaded a video showing the cracks in the barrier embankment between the sea and land on the coast of Jakarta. The embankment that is in the spotlight is included in the Sunda Kelapa area and under the management of PT Pelindo (PT Pelabuhan Indonesia Port). "The SDA Service is currently preparing a plan to repair the embankment and continues to coordinate with relevant stakeholders, namely PT Pelindo and Perindo (Indonesian Fisheries)," said Ika in a short message, Wednesday, October 4. In the viral video, it was stated that the leaking embankment was a giant sea embankment or Giant Sea Wall. However, Ika denied it. Ika emphasized that the security wall in the Muara Baru area was Nizam Zachman's "Nizam Zachman Embankment built by the DKI Provincial Government in 2014-2015," said Ika.
What is clear, although there is a crack in the concrete embankment, Ika emphasized that this condition has not endangered community activities. "Currently the leak is not affected by residents' activities, because the location is far from residential areas," explained Ika. On the one hand, the DKI Provincial Government together with the Ministry of PUPR are still carrying out the construction of the National Capital Integrated Coastal Development (NCICD) project. The NCICD project is divided into three phases, namely phases A, B, and C. Phase A covering the construction of the coastal embankment, while phases B and C include the construction of a sea embankment or what is called Giant Sea Wall. "The embankment that is currently being built in stages to be resolved is the coastal safety embankment and Muara Kali or NCICD phase A. What distinguishes (the construction work of the DKI Provincial Government and the Ministry of PUPR only the division of the authority location," he said.
