The East Jakarta City Administration Government will immediately carry out community service to clean up trash in the river drain project that was abandoned in Sumur Village RT 02/RW 12 Klender Village, Duren Sawit District.
"We will carry out community service in the Sodetan project to clean up trash on Sunday (4/5) after coordinating with the East Jakarta Administrative Mayor Muhammad Anwar and the Development Assistant," said East Jakarta Water Resources (SDA) Sub-dept. Wawan Kurniawan as quoted by ANTARA, Thursday, June 1.
The community service will involve the UPK of the Water Agency, the Sub-Department of the Environment, Handling of Public Infrastructure and Facilities (PPSU) of Klender Village and Duren Sawit District.
According to him, on Wednesday night (31/5), several levels of the East Jakarta City Government (Pemkot) had checked at the location regarding the condition of the accumulation of waste.
The SDA Sub-Department also conducted a survey regarding location access to find out whether heavy equipment could be deployed or not.
"There are reports that it requires heavy equipment for cleaning, last night also checked the access," he said.
This step was taken while waiting for a decision from the agency regarding the implementation of the planned connection of the drain.
"While waiting for the continuation of the plan to connect the drain to the Tegal Amba PHB channel, community service is carried out," said Wawan.
The river drain project in Sumur Village RT 02/RW 17 Klender Village, Duren Sawit District, East Jakarta (Jaktim), which started in 2005, is currently neglected.
The sodetan project is planned to prevent flooding, but is now used as a waste disposal site by local residents.
On Thursday, piles of garbage filled the drain area of the Kampung Sumur river, ranging from household waste, wood, building debris to sacks filled with sand.
Not only that, wild plants and chicken coops also stand in the middle of the river drain area which has a depth of seven meters.
The garbage accumulates until it extends about 200 meters in the drain.
One of the residents, Sobur (60) in Jakarta, Thursday, said that the drain project had indeed stalled (not been taken care of or maintained) since 2005.
"The plan is to make a drain from Klender Village, but instead it stalled, the residents themselves will regret that this is stalled," he said.
Until now, he continued, there has been no ranks of the East Jakarta City Government (Pemkot) and the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government (Pemprov) to follow up on the project.

In fact, since the project plan was implemented, many officers have visited the location.
"From the beginning, there have been many people who control it, there have been many kinds of things from anywhere, there are a lot of them, but it's still like this," he said.
Sobur said, if the sodetan project will continue to be implemented, it is hoped that the city government will install barriers along the drain flow.
"The depth of the drain reaches 7 meters and will be dangerous for residents if there are no barriers on the outskirts of the river," said Sobur.
Untuk mengantisipasi adanya warga yang terendok, warga mengumuk sodetan itu dengan ratusan bangunan dan waste rumah tangga.
Sobur explained that the stalled sodetan was because the government had not been able to completely acquire the land needed and was constrained by the acquisition of the burial land which was waqf land.
"But if, for example, I just want to ask if it is able to free up the land for the tomb. If it can be acquired, this is a burial ground, please, because this tomb is all dedengkot here," he said.
