Semarang December 23, 2022 - The condition of the waterways in Semarang City is of concern to Hevearita G Rahayu the Caretaker of Semarang . Garbage that is in the waterways causes clogging, according to her this is due to sedimentation.

She said, "Cleaning cannot stop, everyone must move together", Thursday (12/22/2022). Ms. Ita asked the urban village head and sub-district heads to monitor the condition of the waterways, so that if there is a blockage it can be handled immediately. In order to maximize the cleaning of waterways in Semarang City, the Semarang City Government will provide heavy equipment.
Ms. Ita plans to procure a mini excavator next year, so that the cleaning of waterways will be more effective. She said, “The price per unit is around 400 million rupiah, next year at least it is budgeted to buy six units". She added that several mini excavators would be used to clean the waterways every day.
In some areas, when the rains hit the Semarang City, puddles no longer lurk. She explained, "It doesn't matter that the Semarang City Government spends a budget of 2,4 billion rupiah because there is a positive effect on society and economic activity.”
