President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo inaugurated the Ciawi Dam in Bogor, West Java. The dam, part of a flood control system for Jakarta, is expected to significantly reduce flooding in the capital city. It is the first dry dam in Indonesia and Southeast Asia, capable of holding back a substantial volume of water during heavy rainfall. Construction began in 2016 and involved significant investment. The dam complements the Sukamahi Dam, which was inaugurated earlier, and further flood control projects are planned.
