A total of six dams spread across five provinces of Indonesia will be inaugurated earlier this year.

The plan is that the six dams will be inaugurated by the President of the Republic of Indonesia Prabowo Subianto and the Minister of Public Works (PU) Dody Hanggodo.

The six dams are the Rukoh Dam (Aceh), the Keureuto Dam (Aceh), the Jlantah Dam (Central Java), Sidan Dam (Bali), the Marangkayu Dam (East Kalimantan) and the Meninting Dam (West Nusa Tenggara).

So, when exactly were the six dams inaugurated by the President of the Republic of Indonesia Prabowo Subianto?

Minister of Public Works (PU) Dody Hanggodo also responded. He said that currently his party wants to follow the model for the inauguration of a hydroelectric power plant or the Jatigede hydropower plant.

It is known, the Jatigede hydropower plant was just inaugurated by Prabowo today. The hydropower plant utilizes the flow of water from the Cimanuk River which is dammed in the Jatigede Reservoir.

The Jatigede Reservoir itself has been carried out by the Ministry of Public Works (PU).

"Right, we have six dams that have not been inaugurated today, yes. Yes, later we may imitate this model, here. Turn it into one," said Dody when answering VOI questions at the Jatigede Dam, Sumedang, West Java, Monday, January 20.

When asked further, which dam will be inaugurated first, Dody has not been able to provide a specific answer.

According to him, his party has provided a list of which dams are ready to be inaugurated and are in the location selection stage.

"We just have to choose where the spot is going. Is it in Aceh or where it is," he concluded.
