Abstract:

Jakarta as one Waterfront Cities faces less sustainable development due to unclear urban development vision and less stringent planning and development control. And due to combination of natural and human factors, Jakarta becomes vulnerable to flooding. This has created great impact in her economy as recorded in 2002 and 2007. This is one example of the “Less Sustainable Urban Development” Integrated Water Resource Management and Sustainable Urban Polder need to be implemented in Jakarta Metro Region, despite of all difficulties. This would eventually reduce the flood occurrence and its impact if it follows Integrated Urban Polder Guideline thoroughly. Study case of Pluit Polder Development will describe a successful story of “More Sustainable Urban Polder Development” in the North of Jakarta. The key points of its success are the community awareness; collaboration and support from government; and proper planning, design, construction, operation and maintenance of Polder. Lastly but not least, close coordination and collaborations are very urgent in implementing Sustainable Urban Polder. Eventually, this would make the Waterfront Cities in Developing Countries more sustainable.

INTRODUCTION

Jakarta has developed from Trading-Port-City into “Glamour and Famous Metropolitan” due to its roles as the Capitol City of Indonesian in Government Sector as well as Business sectors. The extensive jobs creation and increasing land price in the area later attract the rural population to go to the City. And these cause rapid urbanisation as well as urban sprawling phenomenon. Further, the Metropolitan has expanded swiftly to adjacent suburban such as

Page 2: 20100424 - Small - Final Paper Wordpress - Challenges in Urban Polder

Bogor, Tangerang, Bekasi, Depok, Puncak and Cianjur; forming the Jakarta Metro Region or named as ”Kawasan Jabodetabekpunjur” in Indonesian language.

Discussing “More or Less Sustainable” issue of Jakarta development, we find several parameters that Jakarta from other Capitol City of Developing Countries. These parameters are described in the following table.

Table 1. More and Less Sustainable Parameter of Jakarta Metro Region 1

Understanding these phenomena, we believe that a challenging task for making this “Metro City” of “Mega City” sustainable could only be solved with cooperation between stakeholders, led by the Coordination Board of Spatial Planning (BKPRN), involving 3 Governor; 13 Major and Districts Heads as regulated by Government Regulation (PP) No.26 Year 2008. Further, the less sustainable rapid urbanisation and urban sprawling need to be taken care in the long term. Otherwise, Jakarta Metro will still face the unbalanced population density, extensive traffic jams, major floods, etc.2

More Sustainable Parameter Less Sustainable Parameter

• Extensive Job Creation in Jakarta Metro Region;

• The “Centralised Way” of The Central of Government of Indonesia operation creating more opportunities for the business and communities living in Jakarta;

• Numbers of businessmen and investors operating in Jakarta, generating regional economy;

• Cheap land prices especially in low-lying lands and suburban areas;

• Increasing land and property prices due to limited land supply and speculation;

• Great number of populations creating great volume of consumptions;

• Great numbers of skilled workers.

• Unclear urban planning and development vision

• Difficult coordination among Governments due to numbers of sectors and municipalities;

• Less stringent planning and development control;

• Rapid urbanisation;

• Inundation because the area is of low-lying lands or flood-prone zones;

• Uncontrolled conversion of water bodies (rivers, lakes, and ponds);

• Extreme groundwater extractions;

• Extreme land subsidence in Northern Jakarta Metro Region;

• Increasing height of tidal wave because of climate change;

• Urban sprawling;

• Limited reliable infrastructure provisions;

• Serious traffic jams;

• Uncontrolled conversion of open space;

• Limited clean water (tap water or groundwater) supply during drought season;

• Serious poverty;

• Extensive slums area;

• Illegal street hawkers;

• Severe environmental pollutions.

Further, we would like to discuss further Jakarta Flooding issue, related to major climate change impact to waterfront cities. Floods regularly happen in Jakarta City. Jakarta Old Town or Batavia was developed by Jan Pieters Z. Coen in 1619 with waterfront city or urban polder concept. It was planned following the Cities in the Netherlands. This strategy was taken because it was naturally low-lying and flood-prone area. In the following years, the flood became worse due to uncontrolled development in the riverbanks, heavy sedimentations and unmanaged drainage system (canals). And according to the documentation, Jakarta was hit by major floods in 1621, 1654, 1918, 1976, 1997, 2002, and 2007.6

Page 6: 20100424 - Small - Final Paper Wordpress - Challenges in Urban Polder

The 1997’s Jakarta flood occurred extensively causing the national tragedy. The flood was reported covering 4 sub-districts (Kelurahan), submerging 745 houses, and displacing 2640

persons with average of 80 cm of flood. 7 Jakarta flood got worse in 2002 affecting 60% of Jakarta, Tangerang and Bekasi. Further, it was reported killing 142 persons and displacing 114,441 persons. Even, Four Trillion Rupiah economic loss was reported caused by the flood. 8

Lastly, the 2007’s Jakarta flood affected more than 60% of Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang and Bekasi. 80 persons were reported killed because of flooding while 340,000 persons had been displaced. Furthermore, 74,000 houses were submerged and 670,000 people were left without electricity. 82.150 sq km of roads were reported damaged because of the floods. Eight Trillion Rupiah economic loss was estimated by National Planning Agency (BAPPENAS). This data actually illustrates the worsening floods in Jakarta, and increasing economic losses due to the flooding. And we can see that, actually the sustainability of Jakarta Metro Region has been lessened because of floods impact in the area. 9

Even, in newspaper articles, it is predicted that the Jakarta would be submerged partially in 2015 due to land subsidence as well as climate change.

Figure 12. The “Submerging” Jakarta in 2050. 11

It is clearly that due to the current extreme land subsidence as well as climate change, North Jakarta Metro Region will submerge in 2050.

In general, Jakarta floods are actually caused by the interwoven of natural factors and human factors of Jakarta. For easier description, we would like to describe the natural factors first, which are:

• Approximately, 40% of Jakarta areas are low-lying land below the highest astronomical tide;

• Flat topography of Jakarta (even concave in some area sop potential for flooding);

• 40% of Jakarta is located within the flood prone areas of the main rivers; • High rain intensity in the upstream of Jakarta Metro Region;

• Extensive upstream catchment affecting Jakarta (850 sq km);

• Limited water bodies capacity (drains, rivers, retention ponds and lakes);

• Geological and soil types of the Jakarta Metro Region are susceptible to land subsidence and erosion;

Secondly, the human factors affecting the flooding are:

• Disintegration of Spatial Plan and Drainage Master Plan (macro and micro level) of Jakarta Metro Region;

• Limited financial capacity for infrastructure provision;

• Overpopulation in several areas (strategic areas and slums);

• Extreme groundwater extraction; • Conversion of forests, wet agricultural lands;

• Conversion of water bodies (wetlands, agricultural lands, drains, rivers, retention ponds, lakes);

Current Sea Level

Increasing Sea Level

Page 9: 20100424 - Small - Final Paper Wordpress - Challenges in Urban Polder

• Unsustainable land development practice causing increasing soil sedimentation;

• Solid waste and waste-water pollution in the water bodies;

• The unclear system role-sharing among in environmental management especially in the drainage management. 12

Combination of the natural factors and human factors has increased the intensity as well as the magnitude of the flooding. And Jakarta become lesser sustainable due to increasing threats of the floods.

The Central Government and Provincial Government of Jakarta had prepared several studies and master plan related to Jakarta Flood Control as followed: 13

• Master Plan NEDECO (1973)

• Study Of East Jakarta Flood Control Project (1989)

• The Study on Urban Drainage and Waste Water Project in The City of Jakarta (1991)

• The Study on Comprehensive River Water Management Plan in JABODETABEK (1997)

All these documents prescribed Flood Control Strategies which need to be implemented: 14

• Retaining water in upstream area with retention ponds and land and forest conservation;

• Applying rain-water infiltration as much as possible with infiltration well and open spaces;

• Building retention ponds in the middle areas;

• Flowing the water as fast as possible to the estuaries or the seas, with the capacity of rivers and drainages;

• Building urban polder systems in the Northern part of Jakarta;

• Securing lives, vital infrastructures as well as real estates.

Unfortunately, due to several factors, the master plans failed to be implemented. The reasons of are limited financial capacity of the Government in infrastructure provision, disintegration of Urban Drainage Master Plan of the Jakarta Metro Region, not updated Drainage Master Plan of Jakarta Province; less stringent development control; and Increasing run-off 850 km2 catchments of Jakarta Metro region. Other factors also prohibit these plans to be implemented such as: difficult process of land acquisition for floods infrastructure; extreme land subsidence; increasing tidal wave height; severe sedimentation; limited funding for drainages maintenance; and last but not least the disintegrated polder system.

It can be concluded that in managing approximately 1450 sq km of complicated catchment and drainage of Jakarta Metro Region, we need the implementation of IWRM (Integrated Water Resources Management). This also must be supported by implementation of integrated urban polder in the Northern area of Jakarta. Hopefully with these strategies, Jakarta Metro Region could reduce the floods and achieving more sustainable city.

Page 12: 20100424 - Small - Final Paper Wordpress - Challenges in Urban Polder

SUSTAINABLE URBAN POLDER PLANNING AND MANAGEMENT

Answering the sustainable solution for Jakarta Flooding in Jakarta, we believe that Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) is compulsory to be implemented. Global Water Partnership defined IWRM as, “A process which promotes the coordinated development and management of water, land and related resources, in order to maximize the resultant economic and social welfare in an equitable manner without compromising the sustainability of vital ecosystems.”15 In the implementation of The IWRM, the stakeholders should consider sustainability issues, comprising technical, social, economic and environmental aspect. IWRM is conducted with holistic approach and dealing with overall hydrological cycle, and the management actually covers:16 • Social Facilitation, Legal and Institutional Setup;

• Water Allocation (quantity & quality);

• Catchment/ River Basin Planning and Management (development control of land use and the urban surface run-off, or known as Low Impact Development);

• Landscape Design;

• Drainage Planning & Management;

• Floods Control and Mitigation;

• Drought Management;

• Financial Management; • Information Management;

• Stakeholder participation;

• Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA);

• Drinking Water Supply; • Pollution Control and Wastewater Management;

• Water Monitoring (quantity & quality);

• Solid Waste Management;

• Wastewater Reclamation, Desalination, etc. Realising the extensive river basin areas that are used as the boundary or IWRM scope and sector approach in Indonesia Government structure, we believe that IWRM implementation would not be an easy task. On the other hand, leaning from our neighbouring countries Singapore and Malaysia, we believe that IWRM still could be implemented gradually, with coordination and collaboration of many stakeholders. Further, we also note that The IWRM framework above could be adapted to the current condition of Jakarta. From 16 aspects of IWRM, some important ones could be prioritised following the urgency of the issue. But we would like to state that with absence of some aspects, the City would be less sustainable.

On the Northern Jakarta, we find that the integrated sustainable urban polder is very urgent to implement. The Polder could be defined as “An integrated man-made drainage system consisting dikes, drains, retention ponds, outfall structures or pumping stations. Designed landscape in the Polder is required to ensure its effectiveness. Polder Dikes also must be planned and designed considering potential of soil strength, land subsidence, social conflict as well as accessibility issue. The maintenance of infrastructures becomes a critical point for successful polder operation. Lastly, the Polder system must be planned in integration from macro spatial plan, urban design and water management of the macro (river basin) system.” 19

Discussing the possible urban polder implementation, we would like to review some of the more and less sustainable aspects of Urban Polder System in Northern Jakarta as followed: Table 4. More and Less - Sustainable Parameters and Strategies of Urban Polder in Northern Jakarta.

21

More Sustainable Parameter Less Sustainable Parameter

• Reduction of floods occurrences and impacts in North Jakarta

• Increasing land and property prices due to sustainable Northern Jakarta area;

• Expensive infrastructure investment for Urban Polder;

• Extreme land subsidence in Northern Jakarta Metro Region;

• Increasing height of tidal wave because of climate change;

• Serious poverty;

• Extensive slums area.

More Sustainable Strategy Less Sustainable Strategy

• Sustainable populations creating sustainable volume of consumptions;

• Sustainable numbers of skilled workers.

• Stopping groundwater extractions;

• More stringent planning and development control;

• Reducing building and infrastructure loads;

• Reversing conversion of water bodies (rivers, lakes, and ponds);

• Redevelopment of urban polder dikes due to land subsidence;

Canals and Drains

Page 15: 20100424 - Small - Final Paper Wordpress - Challenges in Urban Polder

We would like to explain these parameters further. First, the reduction of floods would happen with implementation of polder and increasing land and property would eventually be achieved because of this. Ideally, other sustainable development strategy should be implemented in reducing the negative impacts of Urban Polder Development such as:

• Limiting the sustainable populations and professionals in the area because of limited environmental capacity;

• Stopping groundwater extractions to reduce the impact of land subsidence;

• More stringent planning and development to reduce the surface run-off;

• Reducing building and infrastructure loads to reduce the impact of land subsidence;

• Reversing conversion of water bodies to increase the effective capacity of the retention pond of the polder;

• Reversing conversion of open space to increase the retention capacity;

• Reducing environmental pollutions (especially wastewater and sewage), to increase the environmental quality of the urban polders.

On the other hand, Urban Polder would need great investment for its infrastructure construction, operation and management. But, understanding the positive impact of the polder, we believe that it is still feasible. And it need to be highlighted that due to extreme land subsidence and increasing height of tidal wave, redevelopment of urban polder dikes needs to be conducted in the periodic time. This is needed to be implemented because of the environmental degradation.

Beside that the current social problem in the area need to be highlighted such as serious poverty and extensive slums area. And it would need to be solved with other solution which is community development.

Further discussing the implementation the Sustainable Urban Polder, we need to state that integrated approach need to be implemented following the research collaboration of The Netherlands Government, UNESCO IHE, Government of Republic Indonesia, as follow: 22

• Institutional Aspect,

• Planning Aspect,

• Design Aspect, • Land Acquisition Aspect,

• Development Control Aspect,

• Construction Aspect,

• Operation, Maintenance and Management Aspects,

• Monitoring and Evaluation Aspects.

• Reversing conversion of open space;

• Reducing environmental pollutions.

And to create successful Urban Polder in Jakarta Province, we need these steps: • Setting Polder Organisation and the Vision of Urban Polder;

• Data Collection (Politic, Social, Economical and Technical Data);

• Topographical and Infrastructure Survey;

• Data Analysis (Integrated Approach – Policy, Socio and Economic Analysis);

• Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) and Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA); • Regular Public Consultations;

• Preparation of Integrated Spatial Plan & Detail Master Plan (Spatial Use and Infrastructure), which include:

o Drainage and flood control plan o Clean water treatment and distribution plan o Pollution control, waste-water (sewage) collection and treatment plan o Solid waste management plan o Wastewater treatment and collection plan o Landscape plan;

• Preparation of Zoning Direction (including Polder Direction);

• Preparation of Urban Design Plan; • Preparation of Feasibility Study of Polder;

• Land Acquisition

• Preparation of Detail Engineering Design (DED) for Polder System (dikes, drainage, retention ponds, outfall structures, pumping stations, wastewater treatment and pipelines);

• Controlling the urban surface run-off with Low Impact Development (LID) method; • Landscape Design;

• Development Control (Permit Application and Issuing Process);

• Development Facilitation (Dissemination, Training, R&D etc);

• Law Enforcement (Incentives, Disincentives & Sanction);

• Other Aspects Monitoring (Building Design, EIA & Infrastructure Construction); • Preparation of Standard Operation Procedures (SOP) of Polder;

• Infrastructure Construction;

• Infrastructure Operation and Management;

• Legal Management; • Financial Management;

• Other Aspects Management (Solid Waste and Wastewater);

• Monitoring (Flood System, Water Pollution, Water Quality);

• Evaluation (Organisation, SOP, Infrastructure, etc);

• Infrastructure Improvement. It could be concluded that integrated approach as well as close coordination need to be adopted in every implementation steps of urban polder. On the other hand, increasing social and environmental factors need to be paid attention in developing the urban polders. And to successfully implement the Sustainable Urban Polder, we would need the polder management institution to ensure its sustainability. The Polder Board function is to manage the polder systems especially in water management and flood protection measures. Ideally, the Polder Institution that will be formed from Government agencies, Private sector and Communities that related to the Polder. The legal basis for supporting the existence of the Polder Board is urgently needed. 29

Page 20: 20100424 - Small - Final Paper Wordpress - Challenges in Urban Polder

On the other hand, in the reality, polder institution may be formed by one or two stakeholders. In Jakarta, we find that some urban polders were implemented by Provincial Government of Jakarta, while others were prepared by private sectors and others were prepared by the Local Community with assistance of Jakarta Public Works Agency. For better understanding of sustainable urban polder implementation with stakeholders’ cooperation, we are going to describe on the Pluit Polder Development as illustration of “More or Less Sustainable Urban Polder Development”.

DEVELOPMENT OF PLUIT POLDER IN NORTH JAKARTA Pluit is located in Penjaringan Sub-District (Kecamatan) and Pluit. Administration (Kelurahan) in North of Jakarta. This area was named Fluit Muarabaru, because in 1660 a fluitschip or slim sea-carrier (named Het Witte) was located there to help the Vijhoek Fort in Grogol River Estuaries in protecting Batavia from Banten’s attack at that time.30 Further, the Pluit location is described in this figure.

Figure 24. The Pluit Polder Location in North Jakarta. 31

The Pluit Polder was bounded by Jakarta Bay (Teluk Jakarta) in the North; Pluit Reservoirs (Waduk Pluit) in the East; Karang Canal (Kali Karang) in the West and Toll Road in the South as described in the previous figure. And in brief, we could describe several the More and Less Sustainable aspects of Pluit Polder Development as followed:

The Pluit Polder Location in North Jakarta

Page 21: 20100424 - Small - Final Paper Wordpress - Challenges in Urban Polder

Table 5. More and Less Sustainable Pluit Polder Development 32

.

The Pluit Residential area was developed in 1970 by Regional Government Company named Management Board of Pluit Area (Badan Pengelola Lingkungan Pluit). The company was later restructured and renamed as PT. Pembangunan Pluit Jaya, In 1995, PT. Pembangunan Pluit Jaya, cooperating with private entities, PT. Duta Wisata Loka (DWL) (1995) converted green and blue open spaces within the area to commercial space, such as Megamall Pluit. Later on other spaces were converted to commercial like: Pluit Junction and Greenbay Pluit Apartment. 33 Jakarta Province Government allowed this and later the changes became legal. Later on PT Pembangunan Pluit Jaya was renamed again as PT. Jakarta Propertindo. While PT. Duta Wisata Loka was later restructured and bought by a renowned “Green Developer” in South-East Asia. And the Mega Mall was renovated expanding into the Pluit Lake. The project was renamed as Pluit Village. And we will use Pluit Village name onward, for easier reference. 34

More Sustainable Aspect in Pluit Polder Development

Less Sustainable Aspect in Pluit Polder Development

• Community awareness in environmental protection especially related with flood protection;

• Pluit Polder Forum was formed with active participation of the people;

• Clear Vision of Pluit Polder Organisation;

• Adequate technical knowledge of Pluit Forum member (urban planner, civil engineer, geotechnical engineer and contractors);

• Collaboration with Academic Experts in several planning and design process;

• Integrated Strategy (short and long term strategy) formulated by Professionals and Community;

• Collaboration of Communities, Private Sector (Pluit Power Plant) and Public Works Agency in mitigating flood (especially in 2007).;

• Willingness to Pay in the Community;

• Extreme land subsidence in Northern Jakarta Metro Region;

• Increasing height of tidal wave because of climate change;

• Pluit was originally not planned as integrated polder;

• Conversion of green and blue spaces for commercial uses by The Developer;

• Limited cooperation from the Current Developer of Mega Mall Pluit or Pluit Village;

• Improper design proposed by the Developer

• Extensive slums area in the side of Pluit Reservoir;

More Sustainable Result Less Sustainable Result

• Reduction of floods occurrences and impacts in North Jakarta

• Increasing land and property prices due to sustainable Northern Jakarta area;

• Drainage system failures due to Pluit Village construction and expansion;

• Expensive infrastructure investment for Urban Polder;

In the mean time, the Pluit Polder was not fully developed as integrated polder system by the developer. And due to that, the area was inundated heavily for 3 weeks in 2002. This disaster brought awareness of the communities on the importance of integrated flood protection system. And The Community Forum of Pluit Environment Care (or named as Forum Masyarakat Peduli Lingkungan Pluit/ FMPLP in Indonesian language) was formed later on. For easier description, we mentioned it as Pluit Forum. The Pluit Forum was formed by the Residents of Pluit area which represented by Homeowner Group (Rukun Tetangga/ RT), Homeowner Association (Rukun Warga/ RW) and Pluit Administration Head (Lurah Kelurahan Pluit). The purpose of this organisation was to coordinate the simultaneous effort to protect the Pluit area with holistic approach. This is the clear statement of the Vision of Polder

The functions of the Pluit Forum’s team are as followed: • To coordinate the mitigation effort between Homeowner Association (RW),

• To empower the all community members in protecting, operation, maintenance of polder elements

• To represent the communities facing external stakeholder such as Developers and Government Agencies

• To monitor the environmental condition of Pluit Polder. We also identified that the Forum member possessed good technical knowledge (as urban planner, civil engineer, geotechnical engineer and contractors), this actually lowered the planning, design as well as contracting costs of the Polder. We also found that the involvement of professional expert such as DR. Agung Ibrahim Bagiawan from Research and Development Institute of Water Resources (PUSAIR) was very positive. DR. Agung had helped the Forum in prescribing temporary and long term polder development strategies. In the strategy, 250 Ha of Pluit Polder was divided into 3 compartments, such as: North compartment, South compartment and Central Compartment. The Central compartment was originally a Pluit Lake (Danau Pluit) that previously utilised for retention ponds and water recreation. The original system of Pluit Polder could be described as follow:

Page 24: 20100424 - Small - Final Paper Wordpress - Challenges in Urban Polder

Figure 26. The Original Pluit Polder Drainage System. 37 Sources: Community Forum of Pluit Environment Care (Forum Masyarakat Peduli Lingkungan Pluit/ FMPLP)

The short term strategies prescribed were: • Adding pumps in several points in the western part of Pluit Polder

• Improving sluices gate connecting to Pluit Reservoir

• Evaluating overall drainage system of Pluit Polder

• Coordinating with Pluit Reservoir and Pumps Station Operator

While the long-term strategies were:

• Redesigning sluices gate connecting to Pluit Reservoir

• Revitalisation of Pluit Village into semi-retention area • Greening the Polder system

• Tide level monitoring

• Coordinating with Pantai Mutiara and Pluit Power Plant to construct integrated dikes Action conducted related to these strategies were and are: • Dike construction with 600 m in length in Kali Karang side (West-side Pluit) in 2003;

• Dike improvement with 800 m in length in Kali Karang South side (South-side Pluit) in 2006;

• Dike improvement in Pantai Mutiara in 2008;

• Sluice gate redesign and improvement; • Dike improvement in Kali Karang again in 2010 because of land subsidence.

Consultation and refining of Pluit Polder Strategy also were conducted with Prof. Bart Schultz, PhD, MSc, and Mr. Martijn Elzinga, expert from The Netherlands Ministries of Transport, Public Works and Water Management, and of Spatial Planning, Housing and Environment; and Dr. F.X. Suryadi, MSc from UNESCO-IHE during Polder Guideline Seminar in Pluit 2009. This consultation emphasised the revitalisation of the Polder especially the Pluit Lake and Pluit Reservoir. This actually showed the proper general planning, construction, operation and maintenance of Pluit Polder. The polder detail planning and design was not conducted at that moment because of limited funding. And this was proven in 2007. When other areas in Jakarta Metro flooded in that year, the Pluit was safe due to successful urban polder performance comprising:

• Good coordination and performance of Pluit Forum

• Good coordination with The Public Works Agency • Good Pluit Polder and Pluit Reservoir infrastructures.

• Better pumping capacity of Pluit Polder reaching 47.3 cu m/s. The Public Works Agency added the new pumps with capacity of 3 x 6 cubic meter/ seconds in Pluit Reservoir.

• Stringent control of water debit in the Pluit Reservoir and Pluit Polder • Excellent operation of Public Works Agents in operation of Pluit Reservoir and pumping

stations

• Backup of power station supporting the pumping stations And this also emphasised the importance of collaboration between Government Agencies, Private sectors and Communities in developing Polder. . On the other hand, related to Pluit Village issue, the Polder Pluit operation currently faces crisis because of reduction of Pluit Lake retention capacity, diversion inflow from North Compartment to 3-m width long-storage, landscape or peil change in Pluit Village. All these have caused the change of drainage pattern and local inundations in the residential area of Pluit. The Pluit Forum has tried solving this with the current developer since 2008. But the effort seems to be useless because the counterpart was reported buying and constructing 14 additional expensive pumps without proper drainage design. This actually shows that this “the Pluit Village Developer” is not really green and sustainable. And this might be the less sustainable aspect of Pluit Polder Development.

Sources: Community Forum of Pluit Environment Care (Forum Masyarakat Peduli Lingkungan Pluit/ FMPLP)

The impact of climate change was also felt in Pluit, In 2008, 2009 and 2010, tidal wave caused sea dikes failures and inundating the area in a short time. In 2008, the highest astronomical tide actually surpassed the dike level of Pluit Reservoir. These phenomena actually show the impact of climate change and land subsidence in the low-lying urban areas like Pluit. This might be the less sustainable aspect of Pluit Polder Development. Further, Willingness to Pay of the residents of Pluit Polder and other Donors were found excellent. And it could be seen as “More Sustainable” aspect of the Pluit Polder. It also proved that the Sustainable Urban Polder was feasible to be implemented in Jakarta. It can be concluded that Pluit Polder Development was found as “More Sustainable”. The important features of the development are as described below: • The community awareness and participation;

• Clear vision and polder strategy;

• Adequate skill and proper implementation process;

• Stakeholder collaboration (Government, Private and Community);

• Proper planning, design, construction, operation and maintenance of Polder. • Willingness to Pay in the Community; These factors eventually would guarantee the successful implementation of Sustainable Urban Polder.

CONCLUSION

Jakarta as one Waterfront Cities faces less sustainable development due to unclear urban development vision and less stringent planning and development control. And due to combination of natural and human factors, Jakarta becomes vulnerable to flooding. This has created great impact in her economy as recorded in 2002 and 2007. Despite of all difficulties, Integrated Water Resource Management and Sustainable Urban Polder need to be implemented in Jakarta Metro Region, because these strategies could reduce the flood occurrence and its impact. Pluit Polder Development has described a successful story of “More Sustainable Urban Polder Development” in the North of Jakarta. The key points of its success are:

• The community awareness and participation;

• Clear vision and polder strategy;

• Adequate skill and proper implementation process; • Stakeholder collaboration (Government, Private and Community);

• Proper planning, design, construction, operation and maintenance of Polder.

• Willingness to Pay in the Community; It can be concluded that close coordination and collaboration are very urgent in implementing Sustainable Urban Polder. And this would make the Waterfront Cities in Developing Countries more sustainable.
