Acting (Pj) Governor of DKI Jakarta Teguh Setyabudi said that his party opened a discourse to engineer the weather during the 2024 Pilkada voting day.

Bearing in mind, the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) issued a prediction of light to moderate rain on November 27, 2024 or on voting day.

"Based on weather forecasts from BMKG, the potential for rain for the 25, 26, 27 is up to moderate. However, we are currently observing the implementation of weather engineering from BPBD," said Teguh at DKI Jakarta City Hall, Monday, November 25.

Teguh also instructed each regional apparatus organization (OPD) regarding vital preparations during the voting, such as monitoring the weather and mitigating inundation during the rainy season.

"People's services continue to operate from 10.00 WIB to 17.00 WIB such as health facilities, the Fire Department (Damkar), and the Environment Agency. As for the population service on voting day, it remains open, starting at 08.30 to 13.00 WIB. We have also prepared the DKI Jakarta Social Service Development Center. Likewise, the Mayors and Regents have prepared all their regional ranks in the success of the Pilkada," he explained.

Meanwhile, the Chairman of the KPU DKI Jakarta Province, Wahyu Dinata, expressed his appreciation to the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government for receiving his arrival today to hold a coordination meeting, in order to make the Pilkada a success in Jakarta in 2024.

"Apresiasi kepada Provinsi DKI Jakarta dan instansi terkait seperti Bawaslu dari Kanwil Kemenkumham DKI Jakarta, kami memastikan kesiapan Pilgub DKI Jakarta pada 27 November yang akan datang. Kami pastikan semuanya siap. Mudah-mudahan Pilgub DKI Jakarta berjalan lancar dan demokratis," ungkap Wahyu.

Then, the Chairman of the DKI Jakarta Bawaslu Munandar Nugraha said that on voting day his party had prepared weather anticipation and flooding.

"Hopefully the scientific engineering piloted by the ranks of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government can be successful properly. God willing, we will optimize the supervision of the Pilkada tomorrow with all of our ranks in the TPS supervisory," explained Munandar.
