Tangerang Floodwaters Rose
Tanggerang,West Java - Tangerang Disaster Mitigation (Tagana) teams evacuated hundreds of
residents from their homes in the Ciledug Indah housing complex in Ciledug district Tangerang after
floodwaters inundated the area on Wednesday.

Water of up to 50-centimeters-deep began to inundate the housing complex on Tuesday. By

Wednesday morning, the water reached up to two meters in some parts of the complex.
Many vehicles belonging to residents were also trapped in the flood because the owners did not have
a chance to move them to a higher place.
Temporary shelters inside government offices and mosques were set up to house the evacuates. But
some residents refused to leave their homes, citing security concerns. They also said that it would be
tiresome to walk between their homes and the shelters to check on their houses.

“I prefer to stay at home because it is unsafe to leave home,” local man Dedi Safe’i told The Jakarta
Post on Wednesday.
