Dharma Pongrekun's Steps To Provide Clean Water In DKI: River Naturalization To Build Monkey Pipi Pool
JAKARTA - Candidate for governor of DKI Jakarta number 2, Dharma Pongrekun has a move to overcome the problem of clean water in DKI Jakarta. He said that the first thing to do if he was elected was to normalize and regulate 13 rivers.
"In the first week of our tenure, we will start a naturalization program in 13 rivers in Jakarta. This step includes reforestation by planting forests along the riverbanks so that the rivers become more viable, even for consumption," he said in a third debate, quoted from the DKI Jakarta Provincial KPU YouTube, Sunday, November 17.
Then, he continued, he together with the candidate for Deputy Governor number 2 Kun Wardana would build a monkey cheek pond. The pool will function to collect rainwater.
"In addition, we will build a monkey cheek pond as a dry reservoir to accommodate rain and floods sent from West Java," he said.
Dharma has rainwater which is classified as fresh water can be accommodated and used into clean water. He said the program would be supported by modern technology connected to the pipeline system to PDAM.

"Thus, Jakarta residents no longer need to worry about banning the use of ground water because the solution is already available," he said.
Dharma also promised to build rainwater reservoirs in city parks, tennis courts, and basketball courts. The processed water until consumption can save Jakarta residents and do not need to buy gallon water.
"This program also aims to teach harmony with nature to the community. Nature is a gift from God that we must protect and preserve, as the leaders of Jakarta take care of their people," he said.
