Rationale: Why have you chosen this case for the landscape and democracy seminar?
The Pluit Reservoir Revitalization Project in the area of Penjaringan, North Jakarta is the first government project of Jakarta Municipality, in the era of Ir. Joko Widodo, Governor of Jakarta in the year of 2012 to 2014, which aims to overcome floods that occurred during the last decade. The main purpose of this project is to restore the capacity of reservoir in order to be able to mitigate the current conditions of annually flooding and also possible for a 25-year return period.
For several years, almost 15.000 legal and illegal households currently settled and built temporary unfeasible housing on the reservoir banks and prone to repeated flooding. Within this situation, the government was challenge to relocate the squatters without harassing their human rights so that the physical improvements could be done. This project is innovative and a strong leadership was the crucial point, also it is integral that social and economic benefits are gained through the development of this project.
In terms of democracy context, the government's approach to actualize the restoration of reservoir function in parallel with the right of citizen will be an interesting case study to be discovered.

Reflection
What are the major challenges for changing the situation?
The government already offered a solution. They will provide proper subsidized apartments in order that these households may maintain their social and economic activities. The major problem is the residents with thousands of illegal houses were reluctant to resettlement. Besides, low-cost housing which are provided by the government located far away from their earlier residence.
Long negotiation process with citizens were taken, inherent with involving many stakeholders. Local community leaders were approached in person and invited to talk and discuss with the Governor so that the communication could be actively in two ways direction. With some personal approach, is to make a clear explanation that inhabitants would have better living environments as they are less vulnerable to flood risk and related health problems.
On the other side, the government still have another task to engage support for financing this project. The public-private partnership (PPP) scheme has been implemented at the Pluit Reservoir Revitalization Project in which the private companies that hold property development permits are obliged to participate in the project under the cross-subsidy scheme.
