Purwanti added her side deploys 11 personnel to construct the channel. The project has been starting from September 29 and is completed to finish November 2024.
"Now the project has reached 40 percent. Hopefully the water will flow smoothly to Angke River," she added.
Yogi (47), one of local residents, appreciated the channel construction in his area. Moreover, the existing channel had limited capacity and it caused the area inundated.
"The water will flow directly to Angke River during heavy rain. Hopefully it will also minimize inundation here," he admitted.
