According to Indonesian Minister of Public Works and People's Housing Basuki Hadimuljono, the quantity of water in Bandung Rentang was enough, about 15 cubic meters per second, so the speed (water) had met the standard, and to improve the water quality, sand excavation activity around the venue would be stopped for a while.
