BOGOR - The Bogor Regency Government (Pemkab) immediately disbursed aid funds for housing rental for victims of the land shift disaster in Bojongkoneng Village, Babakanmadang District.

"We will immediately disburse the cost of renting a place to live, because after all, living in refugee camps is not comfortable," said Acting Regent of Bogor Iwan Setiawan in Cibinong, Bogor Regency, Wednesday, September 22.

He admitted that he did not want the community who were victims of shifting land to stay at their homes, because there was a risk of aftershocks.

According to him, the Bogor Regency Government has established an emergency response status for the ground movement disaster in Bojongkoneng.

Thus, post-disaster handling will be maximized with the budget of the unexpected expenditure post (BTT).

Iwan has also visited the disaster site directly on Monday, September 19 afternoon. He came to Bojongkoneng to ensure the needs of residents affected by the disaster of shifting land are guaranteed.

"Then for food and drink needs, our public kitchens are always on standby. Furthermore, for those who are psychologically affected, of course we will help through 'trauma healing'," said Iwan.

In addition, the Bogor Regency Government has also prepared food assistance through the Social Service (Dinsos) and the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD).

In addition, to help mobilize in an emergency location, the Bogor Regency Government has lowered heavy equipment to level the soil so that it can be passed.

"But seeing that the condition of the land there is still unstable, we still use light equipment to make a temporary road," said Iwam Setiawan.

Previously, the National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB) noted that 41 residents were displaced due to the land movement disaster that occurred in Bojongkoneng Village, Babakanmadang District, Bogor Regency.

BNPB appealed to the public and policy makers in the regions to remain vigilant and increase preparedness.

Acting Head of the BNPB Disaster Data, Information and Communication Center Abdul Muhari said 41 residents who were directly affected were forced to evacuate to two safer locations after their residence was damaged due to the phenomenon of ground movement.

"The two locations that are refugee camps include Villa Roso, Kampung Curug, RT 02 RW 09 Bojong Koneng Village, Babakan Madang District and the Bogor Regency BPBD Command Post," he concluded.
