Residents in North Jakarta are dealing yet again with floods, which they say are getting worse every year.
“This is the fourth day [of flooding],” resident of Kali Baru subdistrict Fhylis Sudiyanto said on Thursday, as quoted by tempointeraktif.com.
Fhylis said tidal water levels began swelling at 9 a.m, peaking an hour later. Usually the water recedes in the afternoon, he said.
Hundreds of residents in Cilincing subdistrict were also affected by the flooding. In some areas water levels reached one meter high.
Rosini, a Cilincing resident, said even though the area has been flooding for years, it has worsened in the last three years.
