JAKARTA - There is a posyandu building in the Karang Anyar Village area, Sawah Besar District, which stands firmly above the water channel. The construction of posyandu in the area was reported by a resident with the @kvhrr1 account to the DKI Jakarta Water Resources Service.

In his complaint, @kvhrr1 said that if there are permanent buildings built on the sewer channel, it is feared that the building will block the water.

Head of RW 07 Karang Anyar Village, Zainal Arifin, said that the construction of posyandu was carried out because of community needs. "We don't have facilities (posyandu). We try to continue the posyandu that we have run. We still open this (water channel) and we don't turn it off," he told reporters, Wednesday, December 28.

Zainal said that usually the existence of posyandu is on the road. However, in the area, posyandu had to be made above the water channel because it was considered not to interfere with traffic access.

"We anticipate accidents. Usually posyandu is on the road. For example, posyandu by closing the road will be wrong again, while posyandu must continue to run. Development is because of necessity, we do not have land," he said.

Pembangunan posyandu, sambungnya, sudah mendapatkan persetujuan dari hasil deliberasi. " Dengan persetujuan warga dan dapat rekomendasi kita bangun secara selfaya. Jadi bukan semata-mata kita bangun tanpa alasan," ucapnya.

Zainal further said that the area had never been hit by floods. If it rains, the flow of water does not enter the waterways.

Meanwhile, the Head of Karang Anyar Village, Lingga Pratama, stated that his party had never given verbal or written permission regarding the manufacture of posyandu above the water channel.

"If our permission has never given a written permit. But verbally, Mr. RW asked me, we only saw a request from the residents, so that posyandu activities should not be carried out on the road. Even verbal permits, we do not allow it (posyandu) above the channel. We are worried that if it is normalized, the building will be demolished," he said.
