JAKARTA - The collapse of the Islamic boarding school building (ponpes) occurred again at Ponpes Salafiah Syafiah Syaf'iyah Syekh Abdul Qodir Jaelani, Blimbing Village, Besuki District, Situbondo Regency, East Java.
The collapse of the women's Ponpes Syafi'iyah building, Sheikh Abdul Qodir Jaelani, killed one female student and injured 11 others. The incident occurred on Wednesday, October 29 in the morning.
Responding to this, Deputy Minister of Public Works (PU) Diana Kusumastuti said that her party would accelerate the audit process for the quality of Islamic boarding schools scattered in Indonesia. This is in accordance with the plan previously coordinated with the Coordinating Minister for Community Empowerment Muhaimin Iskandar or Cak Imin.
"The Ministry of Public Works will conduct an audit of the Islamic boarding schools that are currently being built, especially those that have collapsed. Public Works employees have been distributed to locations in Islamic boarding schools," Diana said, quoted on Thursday, October 30.
Diana explained that Public Works employees were deployed to check the construction of the building as well as identify the cause of the collapse of the boarding school building.
"There are 80 Islamic boarding schools that have been identified by friends from Cipta Karya. That's the information I've received so far," he said.

In addition, Diana emphasized that her party could not immediately repair the collapsed boarding school. The relevant regional government together with law enforcement officials must first identify, especially to check the presence of victims.
"If it is to collapse, we can't immediately wake up. We have to first identify whether there are victims or not. For example yesterday there were victims, meaning that the police must first handle them. If so, then we can enter again," he explained.
