Without action, almost a third of the city will be lost to the sea within the next decades. Irresponsible development and lack of maintenance of the city s waterways are to blame. Low-lying Jakarta relies on its canals against flooding but their maintenance has been poor. About 50-80% of the capacity is gone because of the sediment and the solid waste. That translates from a flood every 50 years, to one every 2 or 5 years. Slums are most affected but they re not alone. Everyone s immobilised when the floods occur . While the poor rummage in brown sludge in search of rubbish to sell, the rich escape to luxurious malls. But these add to the problem: When a city develops it gets heavier. The combination of water being extracted and creating vacuums in the aquifer means the city is pushed downwards . The choice is clear: either stop groundwater extraction or build a massive sea wall off Jakarta s coast, and if not one of the world's great cities will be lost.
