JAKARTA - A joint team from the Pontianak Police, TNI, BPBD, and private firefighters are still working to extinguish the fire at the forest and land fire (karhutla) on Jalan Aloe Vera, South Pontianak District, Pontianak City, Monday, March 14 afternoon.
Head of the Pontianak Police Operations Section, AKP Frits Orlando Siagian, in Pontianak, stated that there had been a forest fire in the South Pontianak District and is still trying to extinguish it.

To extinguish the fire and forest fires, the police were assisted by a team from other institutions, along with a team of six firefighters.
He said the watering was carried out in fairly large fire points. However, with current conditions, for the location there is still a lot of grass and weeds vegetation.
"So we are trying to prevent further hotspots, be it from wind or coals from plant residues and burning soil," he said.
He hoped that the hard work the team had done could extinguish the existing fire so that there would be no more hotspots in the area.
He is worried that if there are still hotspots left, it will trigger fires in locations close to residential areas, especially if there are strong winds and hot weather. going forward.
"For the evacuation of residents, we will look at the situation because if we manage to control and extinguish the fire in Aloe Vera, there is no need to evacuate residents," he said.

As for the area of land that was burned, his party is still coordinating with BPBD, because officers from BPBD carried out these measurements.
