The spray starts from 09.30 WIB to 11.16 WIB.

"This activity is based on instructions from the Head of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Fire and Rescue Service (Gulkarmat)," he said briefly.

Previously, the Acting Governor of DKI Jakarta Heru Budi Hartono admitted that the problem of air pollution in the capital city was a tough challenge for the government. Until now, the poor air quality in Jakarta has not been resolved.

Heru explained that the main reason for the high air pollution in his area is the use of motorized vehicles belonging to Jabodetabek residents who are active every day.
