The Cable Mystery
Tuesday, March 15, 2016
THREE weeks ago, floodwaters reached 20 centimeters on Jalan Medan Merdeka Selatan, Central Jakarta. Although it had stopped raining, the water was not receding. The cause was finally discovered after water systems officers investigated sewers in front of the energy and mineral resources ministry building. The sewer was clogged with cable wrappingsup to 22 medium truck loads of the stuff.
Jakarta Governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama said he suspected someone had committed the act intentionally to discredit the Jakarta government's ability to fight floods.
