BOGOR, KOMPASThe landslide that ensued after the heavy rain on Sunday night (4/2) served as a warning for the umpteenth time that landslides lurk for anyone living in, visiting or passing by the Puncak area in Bogor, West Java. However, until the fatal disaster struck, neither the government nor the residents took any concrete action to launch the revitalization of Puncak.

Dang Aripin, 51, a resident who rents sales space to traders in Cisarua, Puncak, said on Tuesday that he had not thought about anticipatory measures for potential landslides after the disaster on Monday (5/2). The previous day, a kiosk he rented in Puncak near Atta’awun Mosque was hit by a landslide. The kiosk’s tenant Lilis, 45, was killed. “I am not worried, I am fine,” Aripin said.
