PALU - Vice President Ma'ruf Amin questioned the fulfillment of clean water needs for residents of permanent residences, who were survivors of the earthquake, tsunami, and liquefaction in Palu City and Sigi Regency, Central Sulawesi.

"Where does the water come from?" he said when he heard the explanation of the progress of clean water development for earthquake, tsunami, and liquefaction survivors from the Head of the Sulawesi III River Region Office, Taufik, in Palu, reported by Antara, Thursday, January 6.

He questioned the condition of the clean water needs of the earthquake, tsunami, and liquefaction survivors, some of whom are currently occupying permanent housing.

This question follows that the construction of clean water for temporary residents is still in process.

Taufik said that meeting the residents' needs for clean water is currently being carried out by constructing wells.

He explained that currently, the PUPR Ministry through his party is building clean water facilities for residents, which are taken from the Saluki River, Sigi Regency.

"The 600 liters per second that is currently under construction, water from the Saluki River," he said.

His party targets the construction of clean water to be completed in 2023. "Clean water is for residents in Sigi Regency, Palu City, and Donggala," he said.

Clean water for residents of permanent residences, he said, will be taken from different rivers, such as water needs for permanent housing in Pombewe, Sigi Regency as much as 1,500 units, will be taken from the Paneki River with a capacity of 25 liters per second.

"This is nearing the completion of the construction of the water infrastructure," he said.

"It is a temporary process, the work will be auctioned off in 2022," he said.

Clean water for permanent housing for residents in Tondo I and II will be taken from the Poboya River with a capacity of 60 liters per second.
