The Jakarta Disaster Mitigation Agency (BPBD) confirmed that all floodwaters across the capital have fully subsided as of Monday (1/26) at 3 AM.
Grassroots elements, including RT/RW and community leaders, were also vital in the response efforts
BPBD Head, Isnawa Adji stated that while heavy rainfall last Thursday (1/22) triggered flooding in various locations, the situation is now under control.
He credited the successful recovery to seamless cross-agency collaboration, ensuring all affected areas were cleared in a timely manner.
The Jakarta BPBD, in coordination with the Water Resources (SDA), Fire and Rescue (Gulkarmat), Public Works, and Environmental agencies—alongside Satpol PP and local PPSU squads—mobilized personnel and heavy-duty equipment. Mobile pumps were strategically deployed to fast-track water suction and ensure all drainage systems reached peak performance.
"Grassroots elements, including RT/RW and community leaders, were also vital in the response efforts," he added.
So, he urges residents to stay vigilant and immediately contact the 24-hour Jakarta Siaga 112 hotline for any emergency assistance
