Muhammad Fakhrudin

Muhammad Fakhrudin is a limnologist affiliated with BRIN (the National Research and Innovation Agency of Indonesia), known for his expertise in water management and environmental science. He has been actively involved in addressing Jakarta's significant flooding issues, attributing over 50% of the city's floods to local rainfall rather than upstream water. His research highlights the critical state of Jakarta's soil, which can no longer effectively absorb water due to extensive urban development. His insights are crucial as Jakarta aims to transform into a sustainable global city amid increasing environmental challenges.
