The director general said that in 2022, his office is targeting to complete other infrastructure projects -- such as 47,119 irrigation areas, 153,333 hectares of irrigation network rehabilitation areas, and 28 retention basins -- and provide raw water at a capacity of 3.48 cubic meters (m3) per second.
He also said that the realization of the directorate generals budget reached 35.09 percent or around Rp14.9 trillion (US$991.3 million) of the total ceiling of Rp42.69 trillion (US$2.84 billion) as of the end of June 2022.
