Bambang said that during the work there were obstacles that prevented the project from being completed on time. Supposedly, he said, the work might have been completed on Wednesday morning.
“Mamang, I admit that there was a technical problem where the drill got a little jammed (the pulling was heavy) so it should have been finished at 5 am, but the time was a bit delayed until working hours where people do a lot of activities in the morning,” he said.
Bambang said his team immediately deployed a cleaning tank. The red soil that was splattered was immediately sucked up from the location.
“Our efforts immediately mobilized a tank car to suck up the mud and water, then we splashed it with clean water. So we splashed it, we cleaned it, we collected it and we sucked it up,” he continued.
Purple Pasha Furious
Previously, Pasha Ungu was ‘caught’ by the camera being angry with one of the excavation project officers. The road around Pasha stood full of mud and there was 1 unit of heavy equipment on the side of the road.
Pasha explained that the excavation project caused traffic jams in the vicinity. Especially with the mud covering the streets. Pasha does have a house and lives in the vicinity of the excavation project.
“(The location of the project) is near the children’s school, he said there was a pipe repair (utility) on the side of the road,” said Pasha when asked for confirmation by detikcom, Wednesday (31/8).
