REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- Makeshift kitchens have been set up in five locations in Jakarta to serve the evacuees from the floods that hit the city on Monday.

"We have set up five makeshift kitchens in five locations to help the floods victims," the director of social protection of natural disaster victims of the ministry of social affairs, Margowiyono, stated here on Monday.

The makeshift kitchens in Petamburan, Central Java and at Islamic Center in North Jakarta are prepared to serve more than one thousand evacuees each.

He stated that his office has also trained 600 natural disaster workers to help flood victims across the city.

He pointed out that his office had sent aid in the form of food supplies worth Rp696 million to the city administration in December 2013.

"We had sent them the aid in anticipation of the disaster and the same will soon be distributed to those in need," he assured.
