the city that is rapidly going down
In Indonesia's capital Jakarta, one million people live. There is also a widespread famine of the populated city. The city of Indonesia is among the fastest cities in the list. Analysts say, if the city's situation is there, many parts may be submerged in 2050.
Location of Jakarta in the wetlands Again, 13 rivers flow through the city. Analysts, rivers and wetlands in Jakarta due to wind should not be much of a surprise. But the situation deteriorated day by day.
Harry Andres, who has long been studying land in the Bandung Institute of Technology, said that the possibility of falling in Jakarta is not a matter of ridiculous. If we look at our model, then by the year 2050, 95 percent of the north of Jakarta will sink
He also said that there have been many such happenings in the past. In the last ten years, 2.5 meters of Jakarta's northernmost desert has been submerged.
Also, in some places in the city every year 25 centimeters of land is going down. It is twice the other coastal mega city.
The city of Jakarta is going down by an average of 1 to 15 centimeters each year. About half of the city is now under the sea level. Its effects are apparently visible in Jakarta.
A government building damaged in a district named Muara Baru It was once used as a company's building. The floodwater is stuck in the underwater flood water. Because its surroundings are relatively high and water can not get out of here. The buildings that were destroyed were less damaged like this building. Because, in most cases, the building owners renovate the buildings. But if the city's soil is going to look like this, then the question is very important
A resident of Moira Baru said, the roads are often watery. Every year the land of this region is going on.
Analysts say that the port city of Jakarta, north of Jakarta, Tanjung Priek long ago. Now the city is one of the busiest port cities in Indonesia. Now there are 18 million people living in this part of Jakarta.
One of the named Fortuna Sopia lives in an elite building in the region. The sea is also seen from the building. He said my house does not get sinking but every six months the house walls and pillars are damaged.
In such conditions, the worst affected are those who live in small houses on the sea coast. Every year, the tide is rising at 5 cm in the region. Those who once used to visit the sea from their home, they now see dams from the house.
Sophia Fortuna said, living here is dangerous. Residents of this area are living in compliance with the risk.
