Our Challenges
WATER RESOURCE CHALENGES
Western Jakarta water service relies on the same water resources 13 years after the cooperation agreement started. Globally current water resource system is not appropriate for delivering sustainable and reliable water to Western Jakarta fast growing 5 million population; mostly because current water resource and supply transmission main features are sensitive:
- In terms of quality (subject to pollution and high turbidity during heavy rain events);
- In terms of quantity (subject to external natural events: high water, flood, drought, siltation and unforeseen circumstances like PLN disruption, and potential risks of disruption at both Curug and Cawang pumping stations).

NEED OF ALTERNATIVE FINANCING

Funding sources for major investments relating to enhancement and increase of water resource and implementation of transmission lines to the area with outstanding demand; either via co-financing through regional budget, central budget or IFIs (International Financial Institutions) and donors contributions, have to be mobilized.
