with less health category and healthy PDAM category to be healthy. Further to
safeguard PDPAM with healthy category to grow and step up public service. “Head

Furthermore the quality of water of PDAM Drinking Water
Company depended on the quality to tapped water. Today the quality of water in
Jakarta was not perfect due to high population that caused pollution and vast
volume of water pumping. The water sucking caused land surface to continuously
sink. In Penjaringan each year land surface sank by 12 cm” he added.
Worsening quality of water was also due to global warming
which caused water surface to be unclear. To overcome the problem the
Government had built several projects, i.e. Jatiluhur Water Reservoir [SPAM]

condition of water was worst. “Soon more would be built” Tamin remarked that
