JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan projects that the Tebet Eco Park, which was inaugurated on Saturday, April 23, will serve as a water retention or storage location, despite the frequent flooding around Tebet District, South Jakarta.
This, said Anies, cannot be separated from the concept of 'Eco Park' which presents the concept of ecosystem restoration and naturalization of green and blue open spaces, as well as the provision of park facilities that accommodate various activities of residents.
"This indeed functions as a retention pond in the rainy season, and the concept is natural when the dry season will recede. (Optimistic to hold water) around here, yes", said Anies in Tebet, South Jakarta, as reported by Antara.
Anies said that the river flow around Tebet will be channeled to several water pools in the Tebet Eco Park so that its function as water absorption will be effective.
According to him, the Tebet Eco Park concept also uses natural vegetation and embankments, as well as soil bioengineering techniques in waterways in the park.

According to him, the concept serves to help increase the capacity of rainwater storage. Thus, Anies continued, water quality can be improved and biodiversity can be restored.
In addition, the Tebet Eco Park, which also functions to facilitate community activities to interact and play for children, has increased the number of park revitalization in Jakarta, which now has more than 90 parks with the concept of a playground.
With such a function, he hopes that Tebet Eco Park can become a model for other parks in DKI Jakarta, from concept, function, to community involvement.
"Building this park together with various communities, later the maintenance of the utilization will also be shared with the community", he said.
