00:09Minister of Public Works Dodi Hanggoro, and Minister of Public Works Marwarar Sirahid

00:13to discuss the area of the river flow or Daskali-Bekasi on Monday, March 17, 2025.

00:19The meeting aims to evaluate the state of Daskali-Bekasi as a cause of floods last week.

00:24The area of Daskali-Bekasi has mostly been affected by flooding.

00:28Deddy stated that they will discuss the management of the Dask function as a water supply area.

00:32At present, the Dask area has been heavily covered by buildings.

00:39On March 11, 2025, Deddy held a meeting with 27 regents and West Java mayors at the Depok Mayor Complex.

00:46In the meeting attended by Nusron Wahid,

00:49Deddy mentioned that the Ministry of Public Works is ready to withdraw land certificates,

00:53whose location is in Dask.

00:55This request is part of the plan to authorize the river as a step to prevent disasters in the long run.

01:01The land certificates he mentioned are in Dask along Sibarusa, Cilongsi, and Kali-Bekasi.

01:06The Greenda party politician stated that the withdrawal of land certificates at the riverbank does not require compensation,

01:12because the land is state land.

01:15He said that the river was previously managed by the Balai Besar Wilayah Sungai,

01:18Perumjasa Tirta, or Balai Pengelolaan Sumber Daya Air.

01:26Nusron Wahid also admitted to the statement of Deddy Mulyadi.

01:29He stated that the central government fully supports the river normalization program,

01:33including land control.

01:35According to him, they will first mark which land in the Dask area has not yet and has been certified.

01:40The land that has not yet been certified, Nusron stated, will be certified under the name of Balai Besar Wilayah Sungai.

01:46Nusron also promised to implement certificates whose withdrawal process is not in accordance with the regulations.

01:51According to him, the certificates can be canceled or a land clearance can be made.

02:00The Dask dam was discussed after Bogor and Bekasi were hit by a large flood last week.

02:04The Regulatory Board of the Regional Planning Agency of the City of Bekasi noted,

02:07the water level in Kali-Bekasi reached 875 cm.

02:11This number is twice the maximum volume limit, which is 350 cm.

02:16At that time, Kali-Bekasi overflowed due to the water supply from Bogor via Kali-Cilongsi.

02:20Kali-Bekasi overflowed due to the water supply from Bogor via Kali-Cilongsi.

02:25The head of the Indonesian Forest Watch, Sabit Herul Auni, stated,

02:29the flood that occurred last week was due to a malfunction in Huludas Ciliung, Kali-Bekasi, and Jisadane.

02:35The area that should be a watershed area is now largely covered by buildings.

02:40Based on the FWI report, deforestation or damage to natural forests in the three riverside areas

02:46has reached 2,300 hectares throughout 2017-2023.

02:50The number is equivalent to 850 times the area of Sate Building in West Java.

02:55This malfunction made the water not absorbed in the previous area and eventually flowed into the river.

03:06Greenpeace Indonesia stated the following,

03:08Senior Data Strategist Greenpeace Indonesia, Sabta Ananda Proklamasi, said,

03:13The Ministry of Forestry data for 2022 shows that 42% of Kali-Bekasi Dust has been covered by buildings.

03:19Kali-Bekasi Greenpeace Indonesia satellite data shows a change in the Kali-Bekasi Dust landscape.

03:24In 2005, there was a young red color that showed settlements in some areas of Kali-Bekasi Dust.

03:30The number of settlements will increase in 2024.

03:33The young red color also dominates the riverbed area.

03:36Sabta announces land control at the riverbed which is part of the dust.

03:39It is clearly regulated in the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing Regulation No. 28, 2015.

03:45The regulation firmly states that there should be no buildings in the riverbed area.

03:49According to Sabta, the land control regulations at the riverbed are indeed not neat.

03:53He said that the policy makers from the center to the area are involved in problems in the riverbed area.

03:59It should be said that there is no problem in the riverbed area.

04:02He said that the policy makers from the center to the area are involved in problems in the riverbed area.

04:05It should be said that the riverbed area is owned by the state.

04:09So anyone will find it difficult to control the area.

04:18West Java Environmental Education Manager Jeffrey Rohman explains

04:22that land control in the Dust area has been happening due to the lease from the government for a long time.

04:27As a result, there are people who own it, even have certificates in the area.

04:31As a result, there are people who own it, even have certificates in the area.

04:34According to him, the biggest mistake in obtaining the certificates is the land office and the local government.

04:40In addition to normalization, according to Jeffrey, the government has other options.

04:44He suggests that the government create a new flow to cope with the flood.

04:47Other options, according to Jeffrey, are to build a dam around the residential area or retention pool.

04:52Agrarian Law Professor Nur Hasan Ismail said that the use of Dust by the people is a reflection of the emergency of land needs.

05:05Those who live there have no other choice but to live in urban areas.

05:09The government has not been able to provide a simple housing for urban dwellers.

05:13He said that there is already a definition of building on the riverbed.

05:18Based on the Law on Water Resources and Government Regulations on Rivers,

05:21the arrangement of housing there must be prioritized by way of relocation.

05:25Nur Hasan said that the effort to normalize the riverbed area in Bekasi must still be carried out.

05:30Nevertheless, there must be a way out to meet the needs of land and houses for those who live on the riverbed.
