Kramat Pela Urban Village Head, Atiaturrahman mentioned, this cleaning was carried out to optimize water flow on the river and prevent the river from overflowing that can cause inundation to the surrounding areas.
"It is done to optimize water flow on the river, especially in this rainy season," he conveyed, Tuesday (10/27).
In this cleaning, PPSU personnel used simple tools, such as crowbars, shovels and hoes.
"Personnel also cut down trees and clean the weeds on the riverbank," he said.
