It might be odd to many people if I call "Flood Season" in Jakarta. To the common sense, season is just proper to be associated with 'such as' Rainy Season, Dry Season, Holyday Season, Peak Season, and none of which are good to be assoceated with "Flood". However, the terms is growingly becoming friendly to most of Jakartanist ears, and Indonesians at commons. This is because of the fact that almost in all rainy season, Jakarta is almost always facing flood problem so that bacause of it's high frequency of flood happening then people call it as "Flood Season".
It's a kind of difficult to trace which among the factors to the dominant source of the flood. Some people say that it's because of the bad habit of the Jakartanist in dealing with daily housing garbage and trash which then causes many of drainage system does not work in proper. Some other say that the weak coordination among institutions that directly or indirectly related to the city drainage system also as another contributor to the flood. Just to be mentioned, how telecommunication company digs the road-side for the purpose of improving telecommunication networking not in a synchronized coordination with those institutions that are responsible with road and drainage construction. This will be more serious when it happens at the season where rain is coming. Other people say that the most responsible to the flood case is the bad quality of the drainage system at the whole.
This posting is not intended to evaluate which are the most serious cause of the flood among those causes stated above, but it is intended to raise the consiousnes of all about how each can participate in their own capacity to reduce the possibility flood disaster in Jakarta. To the common and ordinary people, let's just start from ourselves. Let's make our surounding be a kind of clean and flood-free environment by implementing proper waste-disposal and implementing life with cleanliness. Let's stop mocking-only and protesting-only to our surounding, but start looking ourselves' role in the case. To the government and other informal institutions which responsibility is theirs, never lost your mind and your attention to the flood. The repetitive happening of the flood should be a good experience as well as a teacher in guiding in dealing with the flood. Making detail analysis and generating alternative solutions should be always be conducted. Master plan as the whole strategy should be defined well as a guidence to all related parties, both government institutions and private ones. Last but not least, let's make the word "Flood Season" become odd and strange as what it should be. I love Jakarta.
