The Department of Housing, Settlement and Land (Disperkimtan) of Tangerang City offers a Simple Rental Flat (Rusunawa) Manis Jaya as a substitute for a burning residence for residents affected by the fire at the Rawa Cat Final Disposal Site (TPA).

He said the Tangerang City Perkimtan Service had prepared strategic steps to help deal with the fire after the fire occurred at the Rawa Cat TPA.

Based on the consideration of existing conditions, the Tangerang City Perkimtan Service has offered 28 heads of families (KK) affected to be relocated to a more appropriate place, namely Rusunawa Manis Jaya which is located in Jatiuwung.

"Currently, we are still in the further communication stage with the affected victims," he said.
