Asphalt on Jalan Bendungan Hilir (Benhil) Raya, Tanah Abang District, Central Jakarta was found damaged with holes and flooded with water on Tuesday, June 27, noon.

The road section was damaged due to eroded water from the overflow of waste thought to have come from a pipe belonging to Perumda Paljaya.

"This is Paljaya's channel, I have written many times to Paljaya but there is no response," said Head of Bendungan Hilir Village, Rida Mufrida to reporters, Tuesday, June 27.

This overflow of waste also emits an unpleasant aroma and the road becomes damaged due to eroded water. Ironically, this incident has been going on for 1 week.

Meanwhile, officers from the Central Jakarta Water Resources (SDA) Sub-dept. checked the location.

"This team has come directly from the Central Jakarta Natural Resources Sub-Department along with the task force," he said.
