Siti Fahima

Siti Fahima is a 48-year-old resident of Muara Angke, Jakarta, who has been significantly affected by the recurring issue of tidal flooding, known as rob. She has lived in her home since 2006, built from her earnings as a seafood seller. Over the past five years, much of her income has been spent on elevating her home's floor and purchasing emergency supplies to prepare for the monthly flooding that coincides with the full moon. Siti expresses frustration over the government's inadequate response to the flooding, emphasizing the need for long-term solutions rather than temporary fixes.
