KUPANG - Kupang City, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) until Monday, 5 April at around 11.45 a.m. local time was still paralyzed due to the many fallen trees that covered a number of roads.

The Head of the Perum LKBN Antara Bureau of Kupang Bureau Bernardus Tokan reported that many of the roads covered with fallen trees, among others, are Jalan Piet A Tallo, Jalan Veteran, Jalan Veteran Kelapa Lima, and Jalan L Karim.

"The tree fell due to the extreme weather that hit the area since last Sunday, April 4", he said, quoted from Antara, Monday, April 5.

Residents are still trying to cut down a number of trees that cross the road using their traditional tools.

The electricity lines since Sunday around 14.30 p.m. are still out, as is the internet. Nearly all of the public fuel filling stations (SPBU) were closed and residents chose to stay at home because the wind was still strong.
