The Krukut River is a river flowing in Jakarta originating in Bogor Regency.[1] In the past the river was clean and one of the tourist attractions during the Dutch East Indies administration, but due to denser housing on the banks and lack of maintenance, the water turned dark and filled with trash, causing routine flooding in rainy seasons.[2]
