The water level in each area also varies. Based on available data, Kebon Baru Village, South Jakarta, is the worst-hit area with a water level of up to 90 centimeters.

Then, in Jati Padang Urban Village, South Jakarta, Insyaf continued, there were two flood points with water levels reaching 30 to 70 centimeters. The reason is because Kali Pulo, which is close to the area, is overflowing.

Meanwhile, in several other areas the water level is only around 15 to 50 centimeters. However, said Insyaf, the cause of flooding in dozens of RWs spread across South and East Jakarta was due to high rainfall.

"Kelurahan Kebon Baru 2 RW, the water level is 20 to 90 cm. All because of the high rainfall," concluded Insyaf.
