KUNINGAN - Head of the Mount Ciremai National Park Center (BTNGC) of Kuningan Regency, West Java, Teguh Setiawan said joint officers were able to control the fire in the Mount Ciremai forest area. "Several hotspots can already be controlled by a joint team," said Teguh in Kuningan, quoted from Antara, Wednesday, September 27. According to him, the fire had spread to several points after it first occurred on Sunday, September 25. The fire was successfully extinguished after officers intervened. However, on Monday, September 26, the fire was again observed. The joint team consisting of TNGC, the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD), the TNI, Polri, firefighters, volunteers, and the community around the Mount Ciremai area then jointly extinguished the fire. Teguh said that on Tuesday around 20.00 WIB, joint officers finally managed to control the fire in the Pejaten and Batu Luhur Blocks. "Alhamdulillah, many volunteers joined in extinguishing the fire, so that the fire can be controlled, and we are still monitoring it," he said. Teguh added that he did not know for sure the area of the burned land, because the location on the fire was feared to be coal, so it needed to be completed first. "The broad measurement will be carried out after the blackout is completed and it is clear that no more fire coal is burning," he said. Teguh said the tools used to extinguish the fire started from the manual method, namely using gepyok, shovels, and hoes, there were also jet shooters, spraying machines and hoses. In addition, fire engines belonging to the Kuningan Regency Fire Department were deployed, especially for points that vehicles could pass. According to him, officers encountered problems while trying to extinguish the fire, because the area that caught fire was a loose hilly and rocky area.
