Deputy Regent Rini said that the flooding that occurred around Tuk Buntung was caused by piles of rubbish and the shallowing of the river flow.
Therefore, the Blora Regency Government deployed heavy equipment to dredge the soil deposits in the river.
"This effort will not succeed without the support and awareness of the community. We ask that the community not throw garbage into the river, because the impact is very detrimental to all of us," he concluded. (Heru)
