Tanjung Duren, Jakarta Flood 2008
February 2008: A year after Jakarta was struck by severe flooding it seems that Jakarta will be flooded again. Budgets for building canals to clear excess water from the city where cut, leaving the city with no defense against the regularly returning floods during the rainy season. The result is devastating and sad to see. 70% of Jakarta is flooded; water raised up to 4 meters in some parts of the city..This pictures is depicting the flooded areas at Tanjung Duren.
