Flood and inundation prevention is a priority proposal in the Development Planning Forum (Musrenbang) of Jati Padang Urban Village, Pasar Minggu District, South Jakarta.

South Jakarta Mayor, Muhammad Anwar appreciated the orderly and democratic implementation of the Musrenbang, which resulted in proposals that met the needs of residents.

"My hope is that future development will be carried out with quality, effectively, efficiently, and provide real benefits," he said, Thursday (2/5).

Jakarta City Council legislator, Yusuf stated that Jati Padang is a flood-prone area, so flood management proposals are crucial.

"It is very appropriate to submit a flood prevention proposal now so that it can be included in the 2027 budget planning," he stated.

He added that another important thing is the proposed construction of the Jati Padang Urban Village Health Center as a health service facility for the community.

"The planning has been prepared for 2027 and hopefully in 2028 the Jati Padang Urban Village Health Center can be built," he added.

Head of Jati Padang Urban Village, Admiral said a total of 50 proposals were submitted to the Musrenbang. Of these, 22 will be implemented this year, while the remaining 28 are planned for 2027.

"All proposals have been accommodated, including several jobs that were postponed in 2025 and will be resumed in 2026," he stated.

His rank is prioritizing flooding and inundation management, which are major challenges in the Jati Padang area. Priority locations include Jalan Salihara, RW 01, Jalan Jati Padang, RW 04, and Gang Jati, RW 06.

"Jati Padang urban village is an area that is often flooded because of its geographical conditions in the form of a basin and receives water runoff from upstream areas," he added.
