JAKARTA - Head of Commission D for the Development of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Ida Maheasy, asked the DKI Provincial Government to increase the revitalization of parks in the capital city with concepts such as the Tebet Eco Park which was recently inaugurated.

Ida assessed that the expansion of park revitalization such as the Tebet Eco Park was useful as a means of interaction, education, and recreation for the community.

"We ask the Parks and City Forest Service to make parks in Jakarta like this (Tebet Eco Park). It's extraordinary, it can be used as entertainment for residents," said Ida in her statement, Monday, April 25.

Similarly, Member of Commission D DPRD DKI Judistira Hermawan asked for a new concept of parks in Jakarta like this not only to be located in large environments such as the city center, but also to be carried out around dense settlements.

"Of course we hope that parks like this will not only be built in South Jakarta, but also in other areas, especially North Jakarta. I think there still needs to be a significant addition of parks," said Judistira. For information, DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan officially opened the Tebet Eco Park on Saturday, April 23. Tebet Eco Park presents ecosystem restoration and naturalization of green and blue open spaces, as well as providing park facilities that accommodate a variety of residents' activities.

"This indeed functions as a retention pond in the rainy season, and the concept is natural, when the dry season will recede. (Optimistic to hold water) around here, yes," said Anies at Tebet Eco Park, South Jakarta.

Anies said that the river flow around Tebet will be channeled to a number of water pools in the Tebet Eco Park so that its function as water absorption will be effective.

According to him, the Tebet Eco Park concept also uses natural vegetation and embankments, as well as soil bioengineering techniques in waterways in the park.

According to him, the concept serves to help increase the capacity of rainwater storage. Thus, Anies continued, water quality can be improved and biodiversity can be restored.

In addition, the Tebet Eco Park, which also functions to facilitate community activities to interact and play for children, has increased the number of park revitalization in Jakarta, which now has more than 90 parks with the concept of a playground.
