The two houses are very worrying and we really need help," Yani said when met in the Kemanggisan area, Pal Merah, West Jakarta, Friday, January 28. Yani said , these two houses had previously been submitted for redevelopment some time ago. During the submission process, the City Government (Pemkot) conducted a survey of the two house locations to ensure that they were eligible or not. After the two houses were surveyed directly by Yani, the demolition process would be carried out immediately. We are looking for more houses that are not suitable," said Yani.

One of the houses that will be rebuilt is on Jalan Kemanggisan Ilir, RT 06/07. The house was narrow and at the corner of a dead end street. The road to the house also could only be passed by a motorbike from one direction. When we arrived at the front of the house, the condition of the terrace also looked narrow. The house only has two rooms, a small living room and a bathroom which is attached to the kitchen. The house also looks low. Its height is only about 160 centimeters. (cm). The condition of the tile is also damaged and many have holes. "If it rains it can flood in the house because it leaks," said Idup Muhammad (65) as the owner of this house. In this narrow house, Idup lives with his two children and two grandchildren. They live in "medium" conditions. Day-to-day, Idup only relies on calls from people as a personal driver. With this assistance from the West Jakarta City Government, Idup is very grateful. Some of the burden has now been lifted because there is no need to think about the condition of the house that is no longer suitable for habitation. "I am very grateful for the assistance from the mayor.
