JAKARTA - Jakarta Deputy Governor Rano Karno's candidate said he wanted to learn from Fauzi Bowo regarding the dam concept in Jakarta.

In addition, he will maximize the reservoir to overcome the water crisis problems that occur during the dry season.

The statement was made after receiving complaints from residents of Jalan Malioboro, Tegal Alur, Kalideres, West Jakarta.

"Yes, this is the meaning of governance. That's why Bang Fauzi, Bang Foke already has the concept of building a dam. The dam is around Jakarta," said Rano Karno, Saturday, September 7.

"For example, yesterday in Ciawi, what is that for? Containing dry Jakarta water, open it. That's why the system is open, open and close, open and close. That's the point, not for rice fields irrigation, Jakarta doesn't have rice fields. But the point is for the source of the raw water. That's the main thing," he continued.

Apart from the water crisis, Rano Karno hopes that colleagues from the DKI Jakarta DPRD from the PDI-P faction will help him to gather input and complaints from the public in each region.

Thus, he and Pramono Anung as the Governor Candidates can find solutions to various problems that occur in Jakarta.

"Now indeed, in the sense of the word I beg all DPRD members, who elect Jakarta, DPRD colleagues, of course Jakarta, to give us a mapping," he said.

"Where our territory must come, where we are already strong, where we are weak. This means that it becomes a focus. What is it? It's not long, it's only two months," continued Rano Karno ending.
