JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta was hit by floods after being showered with high-intensity rain. Even after six hours of flooding, Jakarta has not subsided.
As a result, several parties compared the performance of Anies Baswedan and Basuki Tjahaja Purnama when leading the capital city in overcoming floods. Even the name Ahok is trending on Twitter. How did Ahok respond, who is also called BTP?
Ahok suggested, in dealing with floods, Jakarta needs extra and fast handling. Not only the provincial government, said Ahok, the central government through the Ciliwung Cisadane River Basin or BBWSCC, namely the PUPR (Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing) must immediately normalize the river. Meanwhile, DKI Jakarta, emphasized Ahok, must improve its watersheds or DAS.
"Yes, the name is the normalization of watersheds (DAS). If you want to return to the original form of the DAS (the maximum waterway), all buildings forced in the watershed will be demolished", Ahok told VOI, Jakarta, Saturday, February 20.
Ahok said that was the reason when he served as governor of DKI to enforce restraint. Where all buildings standing in the watershed are put in order.
"We were forced to demolish, let alone houses without permission and occupy the DAS", said Ahok.
According to Ahok, an orderly solution for society is to provide a place to live. "Just provide a lot of affordable flats. Owned for live the right to live and pay cheaply. People are told to buy (with) a UMP salary, let alone a salary. Which one can afford to buy a 0 percent house? A lot of housing is empty, selling 0 percent interest, don't DP (deal price) 0 percent, if you get the basic installments", said Ahok.
According to Ahok, if all was done well, it was believed that there would be no more flooding in Jakarta. In essence, said Ahok, just follow the existing program. After all, he said, it was not Jokowi or Ahok's program. This program has existed since the days of Fauzi Bowo and since President SBY.
"Jakarta is different from the regions. Candidates for regional heads have to think about the programs. Because generally there is no study yet. In DKI everything is complete. We just have to be brave or not run the existing programs and if there is no change in the study of the existing programs. "Just do it. Everything is done to clean up transportation, flooding, and administering social justice. It's not a matter of being popular or not. It's a matter of carrying out duties by the oath of office and professional or not while in office", said Ahok.
