"In North Jakarta, there is 1 RT in Koja Village with a height of 25 centimeters," said Head of BPBD DKI Jakarta Isnawa Adji in his statement, Friday, January 6.
Isnawa explained that the tidal wave in Koja Village was caused by high tides and also resulted in an increase in the alert status of the Fish Market Water Gate to Alert 2 (Alert).
BPBD DKI Jakarta mobilizes personnel to monitor inundation conditions in each region and coordinate elements of the Natural Resources Service, Highways Office, Gulkarmat Service to carry out inundation suction and ensure water lines function properly together with local lurah and sub-district heads.
