MAKASSAR - The Governor of South Sulawesi, Nurdin Abdullah and the Acting Mayor of Makassar, Rudy Djamaluddin, returned to the Center Point of Indonesia (CPI) area.
This visit is to see first hand the area that will be made a large canal by the South Sulawesi Provincial Government. There are also two new canals, namely the South CPI canal with a width of 30 meters and the Jongaya canal with a width of 50 meters.
This channel serves to clean (flushing) the Jongaya canal (the existing Jongaya canal) so that the discharge does not go to Losari Beach, but towards this south canal. It is hoped that later the sea water around Losari will no longer be black and smell bad.
Prof. NA said that the presence of this canal would eliminate the bad smell in Losari. This canal can also be a canal tourist attraction.
"So later it will become a canal tour, when it's finished," said Nurdin.
Work will be carried out from tomorrow. The Construction and Development Manager for CitraLand City Losari Makassar, Nicky Putra Perwira Meliala, explained that the CPI south canal has a length of 300 meters, a width of 30 meters or an area of 9,000 square meters.
"There is a CPI South canal and there is a red color (referring to the design of the drainage canal change), it is canal land. Two (new canals) are better, but one can be a solution too. So the disposal is, the end now is that the estuary is in Losari," he said.
Because it empties into Losari, garbage from Makassar City is wasted and flows into the Jongaya river, which leads to Losari Beach.
"If we open it, there will be two ends, if we add one in the red canal with the picture of Pak Gub, it will have three ends," he explained.
These three estuaries are from the existing Jongaya canal, two new canals, namely the South CPI canal and the Jongaya canal.
