JAKARTA - Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung ordered his staff to check the feasibility of the building. This step was taken following the fire at the PT Terra Drone Indonesia office in Cempaka Baru, Central Jakarta which killed 22 employees.
"Things related to buildings, I have ordered the relevant agencies, Citata then Binamarga then ... all of them to re-examine," Pramono told reporters at the Jakarta City Hall, Central Jakarta, Saturday, December 13.
Regarding the condition of the Terra Drone office, Pramono said that the building was an old building that was upgraded. But, the process did not pay attention to feasibility.
"So there is an old building, suddenly a building is built that grows, which is different from left and right. It is six levels high," said the Minister of the Cabinet Secretariat (Menseskab) of the 7th President of the Republic of Indonesia Joko Widodo (Jokowi).
In addition, the management did not pay attention to the conditions inside. "Both the way up and down are not regulated," he said.
"In fact, along the way up there were batteries for drones. That's what caused the very fierce fire," continued Pramono.
Pramono further handed over the handling of the case to the police who were investigating. But, the Jakarta Provincial Government was said to be ready to provide accountability for the victims, including funerals for the victims who died.
"It turns out that there are some who were buried in their respective areas, yes, that's monggo. But actually we are preparing."
