Banjir Di Jakarta 2016

Scenes of apocalyptic inundation that paralyzed much of Jakarta on Monday could play out
again over the next three weeks, with officials predicting more heavy rains and tidal floods.
Mondays flood, triggered by nearly 24 hours straight of rain in Jakarta and upstream area of
Bogor, where all major waterways cutting through the capital originate, was only moderate,
said Denny Wahyu, the head of the Jakarta Disaster Mitigation Agency, or BPBD.
More showers are expected to hit the region from Wednesday through to Feb. 20, he said.
The rainy season is expected to peak between Feb. 21 and March 2, with heavy showers
expected in 80 percent of the capital as well as north and west Bogor.
The governments Agency for the Assessment and Application of Technology, or BPPT, has
proposed that the Jakarta administration turn to cloud seeding to diffuse the intensity of the
rains.
And while the intensity of the flooding in some spots, including in the area around City Hall
and the State Palace, was worse than usual, the extent of the inundation was not as
widespread as in previous years 307 areas were designated flood-affected zones on
Monday, compared to 634 at this point last year.

Summary :
So the content of the news is about the banjr where the cause is triggered by heavy rains
almost 24 hours in Jakarta and the upstream area of Bogor, where all the major waterways
cutting capital originate, only "moderate,"
