The PDI-Perjuangan faction at the DPRD DKI Jakarta believes that Anies has failed to provide many shelters.
In fact, during his campaign as a candidate for the Governor of DKI Jakarta three years ago, Anies promised to provide hundreds of thousands of shelters for Jakarta residents.
“That’s why we associate it with the provision of livable housing for the citizens of Jakarta, this is Anies’ job failed miserably. His promise of 250 thousand shelters. Until the third year, the target of 200 thousand today has not even tens of thousands because Mr. Anies is focused on providing DP Rp 0 which until today it is not clear where the juntrungan is, “said Gembong.

In the regional regulation, which is currently still being revised, said Gembong, the location of Kampung Akuarium should not be for residents’ homes.
“So if Mr. Anies argues that he wants to raise the dignity of the citizens of Jakarta, especially in Kampung Akuarium, to be elevated to suitable housing for them, that’s not the place. Not appropriate, don’t be an excuse to violate the rules,” he said.
The Provincial Government of DKI Jakarta carried out the groundbreaking for the construction of the Kampung Susun Aquarium in Penjaringan, North Jakarta, Monday (17/8/2020) yesterday.
Anies said, this proper housing was realized through the construction of a flat village concept.
This concept is the brainchild of four components consisting of elements from the community, experts, facilitators, and government.
“Today we start the program. But it’s complete, when the residents enter the house. This village planning should be an example of village arrangement in Jakarta. Kampung is part of the history of this city. Therefore, the village must continue to live and develop, keeping up with the times,” he said. Anies.

Evicted during the Ahok era
