JAKARTA - Turya (48), a resident of RT 01, Harapan Mulia Village, Kemayoran, was forced to raise clean water due to the dead PAM water at his house. It was later discovered that PAM's water in the residential area was hampered due to the normalization of the channel on Jalan Cempaka Baru Utara, Kemayoran District, Central Jakarta.
According to Turya, the damage to the Pam water pipe has been going on for 2 weeks. The damage occurred due to the construction of a resident's channel.
"This water belonging to Pam was leaked due to sewer repairs. The water in my house died because all the water was leaking here," he told reporters, Tuesday, November 1.
Turya said the Pam water broke and mixed with sewer water. Residents were forced to take the water for needs such as bathing and washing clothes.
"We bring buckets from new houses to this location, we continue to take water. Actually, we are worried about using this water even though the color is still a bit clear but it is mixed with sewer water," he said.
Meanwhile, Dita (39), another resident, said that the breakdown of the residents' water pump pipe was not the first time. More than two Pam pipes broke due to the work on channel widening.
"The pipe has broken, not to mention it has become dusty, the location of the work and the disbursement of the soil on the road," he said.
Confirmed separately, Kasatpel SDA Kemayoran Subdistrict Supriadi said the normalization of the channel was carried out by the Central Jakarta Natural Resources Sub-dept. of planning.
"That's the Central Jakarta SDA Sub-Department for planning. I don't know when it will be done from when and how long," he said.
