Joint officers from the Water Resources Sub-dept. (SDA Sub-Department) and Handling of Public Infrastructure and Facilities (PPSU) South Jakarta handled landslide piles in RT 11/RW 05, Bukit Duri Village, Tebet District.

"It is suspected that it rained yesterday until the building was unable to withstand the burden of the concrete wall," said Lurah Bukit Duri Atiaturrahmah, quoted from Antara, Friday, December 2.

The landslide block had closed the flow of Kalibata's connecting channel (PHB).

The efforts made involved 15 joint officers, including by removing the debris so that the flow of the river remained smooth.

"We urge the public to be aware of hydrometeorological disasters, including heavy rains, floods, landslides, strong winds," he said.

Kasatpel SDA Tebet Fachri said the landslide location was eight meters wide and three meters high.

Kemudian, penanganan yang dilakukan adalah pemasangan cerucuk kayu gelam (dolken) untuk mencegah agar tanah tidak bertambah longsor dan kokoh di tempat.

Thus, joint officers work together to repair landslides so that they can be used as a reservoir for excess water when it rains.

"Currently, the repair work is in the stage of working on the foundation excavation, and is expected to be completed within the next three weeks," he said.

Previously, the DKI Jakarta Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) mapped eleven areas that have the potential for ground movement that need to be anticipated during the rainy season.

A total of eleven areas that have the potential for land movement are spread across South Jakarta and East Jakarta.

Furthermore, in East Jakarta, covering the Kramat Jati and Pasar Rebo sub-districts.
