Jakarta, CNN Indonesia –

Candidates for mayor of Surabaya, Arifin Machfud responding to the arrival of various members DKI DPRD who came to the city of heroes to consult on flood control.

Machfud advised DKI to study flood control in the Netherlands, not Surabaya. According to him, the flood control in the city of Surabaya is still full of records.

“Holland, study nang kono (studied there), great governance. Those of us who feel and know that Surabaya is not flooded, correct person (people) Surabaya, “said Machfud when he held a meeting with various church communities, at the Mercure Hotel, Surabaya, on Saturday night (10/24).


“If you study it in a country that is not flooded, in an area that is not flooded, you will learn. If necessary, the sea situation is low, but Not flood, that’s just learning, “he said.

Machfud emphasized that the city of Surabaya still has a problem that has not been properly handled in the City of Heroes, namely the problem of floods.

Machfud admitted that his party had found several areas in Surabaya that were still flooded during the rainy season. He also promised that if he were elected later, the flood problem would be solved.

“This is what may not have been touched, it has not been managed, it may have been managed but it has not been maximized. In the future we must continue to make Surabaya free of floods,” said Machfud.

Machfud added that even in those floodplains, children often use it as a place to play and swim for free.

“But perhaps this municipal government cannot say that it is a flood, this is just a puddle, if it can hold it for two days. stay“If it goes away fast, the best thing is that we have to clean up the mud,” he said.

Previously, DKI Jakarta DPRD’s Special Flood Committee (Pansus) met with the Mayor of Surabaya, Tri Rismaharini, to learn how to manage flooding. Wa Ode Herlina, a member of the Special Committee for Floods in DKI Jakarta DPRD, once relayed his complaint about the complexity of managing floods in DKI Jakarta.

“We, the Special Committee on Floods, are serious about solving the floods in Jakarta, what advice can you make in Jakarta? Perhaps what suggestions are there so that we can really work on overcoming the floods in DKI Jakarta?” Wa Ode said during his visit, Tuesday (10/22).

In response to the query, Risma said that flood management could be carried out by integrating the pedestrian arrangement, which is currently under the Park Service and the canal area managed by the Public Works Agency in DKI Jakarta.

“What I heard was that the pedestrians were under the Park Service, while the channel was in PU. This cannot be handled like that, because if two, one is want what to build, coordination must be strong, “said Risma.
