Flooded Jakarta

When disasters like earthquakes and tsunamis striked Indonesia, my beloved city Jakarta was not affected. No, those natural disasters are not the enemy of my city. The enemy of my city is floods... The last bad one happened on the year 2002. At that time, my high school was closed and classes were conducted temporarily at a different place.

This year, another flood strikes. And the news said this time, it's worst than last time. They said it's the worst flood in 15 years. Well, they say a picture worths a thousand words. So here it is, a picture of one of the area from above.
