Float vendor Sapinyi, 57, waits for customers on Jl. Pemuda in Rawamangun, East Jakarta. Floats range from Rp 25,000 (US$2) to 65,000, while rubber boats cost Rp 500,000 to Rp 700,000. Sapinyi said customers mostly came from Kelapa Gading, North Jakarta, which was prone to floods. JP/RICKY YUDHISTIRA
